DeWine sounds off on federal inmates, sales tax

Republican Hamilton County Commissioner Pat DeWine recently sent this e-mail out to those on his e-mail list. In it he blasts his Democratic colleagues' decision to keep federal inmates in the county jail and continues to try to drum up opposition to the sales tax increase that would build a new jail and fund safety programs.

DeWine even includes a power point presentation. His colleagues, Commissioners David Pepper and Todd Portune have complained that Pat, though he opposes the sales tax, still hasn't put forth any viable alternative.
