Ohio Education Association President Scott DiMauro said on WOSU's "All Side with Amy Juravich" on Tuesday that going to the voters was one option if proposed cuts aren't restored.

Ohio's unions are concerned about what they see as an attack on organized labor in Senate Bill 1, the measure that seeks to ban diversity programs and faculty strikes at public universities.

President Trump froze funds Tuesday for some loans and grants while his administration reviews whether those purposes line up with his ideologies, and some Ohio groups are worried.
