This week,
State Senator Edna Brown (D-Toledo) took the oath of office

“I am honored to once again represent the 11th
Senate District in the 131st General Assembly,”
said Senator Brown. “I also appreciate the trust that has
been placed in me by my Democratic colleagues to continue
serving as the Minority Whip. There are many important
issues facing my district and Ohio, and I look forward to
working every day to improve the lives of all Ohioans with
my colleagues in the Senate.”
