Ohio lawmaker calls for investigation into Columbus-area Somali child care facilities

MSN source-https://www.msn.com/en-us/politics/government/ohio-lawmaker-calls-for-investigation-into-columbus-area-child-care-facilities/ar-AA1TmLx9?ocid=BingNewsSerp


snip- "State Representative Josh Williams (R-Sylvania Township) asked in a letter that was co-signed by 42 other representatives for the Ohio Department of Children and Youth to further look into publicly funded child care centers. The letter requests increased frequency in “unannounced inspections” at these facilities. Ohio law requires all child care centers to undergo at least one unannounced inspection per year to maintain their licenses."


For the record Sylvania Townshipis 147 miles north, near Toledo not Columbus


snip-"Tuesday’s letter comes amid growing discussion and investigation surrounding alleged fraud in Minnesota at day care centers. President Donald Trump’s administration announced that it is freezing child care funds to Minnesota after a series of fraud schemes in recent years. The decision comes after a viral video on X/Twitter from social-media influencer Nick Shirley alleging fraud."

snip-"Minneapolis has the largest population of Somali immigrants in the U.S., with Columbus housing a large Somali population as well. Williams’ letter did not tie his call for investigations to any Columbus population, and Minnesota Republicans demanding action did not mention Somali day care operators in a letter requesting an investigation into day care fraud.

oh, and this... In July 2023, Williams was one of the lead sponsors of a bill that would ban drag performances from any venue where minors could be present.
