Your home. Your legacy. Your security.
The Promise: If you’ve worked your whole life to own a home in Ohio, you shouldn’t be taxed out of it in retirement. Michael Cole will cap property taxes for Ohioans 55 and older—period. No more choosing between medication and mortgage. No more watching your neighbors forced to sell the homes they raised families in. No more anxiety every time the tax bill arrives.
Why Count on Cole: Michael knows that your home isn’t just property—it’s your life’s work, your memories, your stability. While other politicians talk about “tax reform someday,” Michael has a specific plan: a hard cap on property tax increases for seniors that protects you from being priced out of your own neighborhood.
What This Means for You:
- Predictable housing costs that don’t spiral out of control on a fixed income
- Financial breathing room to enjoy retirement instead of drowning in tax bills
- The dignity of aging in place in the community you helped build
- Generational wealth protection so you can pass something on to your kids
- Peace of mind knowing a former school board president understands fiscal responsibility AND protecting families
The Cole Difference: Michael led the budget for one of Ohio’s largest school districts. He knows how to balance community needs with taxpayer protection. He’s not anti-tax—he’s anti-unfairness. And right now, the system is crushing the people who built this state.
