Resegregation in Ohio??

To: Rep. Newman, Sen. Huffman, Gov. DeWine

From: A constituent in West Milton, OH

March 27

Is Ohio a safe place to be for BIPOC constituents? Can minorities live in safety here? ‘Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts. What year is it? Are we going back to Jim Crow era? Are we erasing decades of civil rights progress? Will Ohio be a free state? A place where enslaved peoples ran to be free? When they crossed the Ohio River they were safe. As Trump attempts to re-segregate America, never lose sight of the fact that Elon Musk stands to financially benefit from the federal government no longer enforcing anti-segregation laws. Will history be rewritten? Please stand up against this and many other atrocities done in our nation. This is a smack in the face to heroes of our nation, and a middle finger to all Black, indigenous, and people of color who live in this country. Stand up to racist Trump and fascist Musk. Protect your constituents please!
