Michael Ryan for Butler County Commissioner

Wishing you and your family a wonderful and blessed Father’s Day 💙🙏

Mammantus clouds this morning in Hamilton after a very long night of severe weather. 🌩️ 🌪️

Hope everyone is doing okay! ❤️🙏

This morning, our County Commissioners approved a moratorium on data centers in six of our townships.

I support the Commissioners’ decision to enact a moratorium on new data centers.

This is a reasonable and responsible step as we continue to learn more about the potential impacts these facilities can have on local communities, infrastructure, utilities, water resources, and the environment.

The Ohio House Select Committee on Data Centers is also gathering information and studying the impacts of data center development across our state. Taking time to gather facts and evaluate the experiences of other communities before making long-term decisions is simply good government.

A temporary pause allows us to make informed decisions that protect Butler County residents while planning for our future.

Great to see Joby Aviation⁠ continuing to grow and invest in our region!

Butler County is strategically positioned within Ohio’s growing aviation corridor, and it’s important that we invest now and prepare for the future of the eVTOL industry.

From advanced air mobility and innovation to job creation and economic development, the opportunities are tremendous. Butler County has the potential to lead the way and become a key hub for this next generation of aviation. 🚁🇺🇸

How Joby is building its air taxi company in Dayton with workers who are ‘production heroes’ Joby Aviation is pioneering the electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft industry with new production standards at its Dayton facilities, aiming to establish a leading role in crafting quiet, efficient aircraft for business and military use.

Great time at the Morgan Township, OH Strawberry Festival 🍓🇺🇸

🇺🇸 Today in History 🇺🇸

On this day in 1776, the Second Continental Congress appointed the “Committee of Five” to draft what would become the Declaration of Independence.

The committee consisted of Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania, Thomas Jefferson of Virginia, John Adams of Massachusetts, Robert R. Livingston of New York, and Roger Sherman of Connecticut.

Their task was to prepare a declaration explaining why the American colonies were seeking independence from Great Britain. Less than a month later, on July 4, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was adopted, forever changing the course of history.

As we approach America’s 250th Anniversary, we remember the vision, courage, and leadership of our Founding Fathers. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Today we remember and honor the brave Allied soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy and helped turn the tide of World War II.

Never forget! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

"Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely... We will accept nothing less than full Victory!" - General Dwight D. Eisenhower

🇺🇸 One month from today, America will celebrate its 250th Birthday! 🇺🇸

This historic day gives us an opportunity to reflect on the courage, sacrifice, and vision of those who founded our nation and secured the freedoms we enjoy today.

Our Butler County cities and townships will be hosting events and celebrations to commemorate America’s 250th Anniversary. I encourage everyone to take part in these special activities as we honor our nation’s past, celebrate our present, and look forward to an even brighter future!

Today’s Memorial Day ceremony and Wreath Laying was deeply moving and a powerful reminder of what this day truly represents.

Hearing from our Gold Star families and from those who fought to protect our freedoms was a powerful reminder of the true cost of liberty.

Their courage, their love, and their sacrifice will never be forgotten. 🇺🇸
