Ohio Open Letters
From a verified voter in Canton, OHI am writing to urge you to strongly oppose the potential nomination of Kristi Noem as Director of Homeland Security. As the governor of South Dakota, Noem has exhibited alarming far-right and authoritarian tendencies that make her unfit to lead an agency tasked with protecting our nation's security
From a constituent in Reynoldsburg, OHElon Musk makes over $71,000,000 an hour yet thinks we don't deserve our paltry social security benefits that we've paid into our entire working life. Stop the grift.
From a verified voter in Westerville, OHVeto Ohio HB 8, protect religious freedom and public education
I would like Governor Dewine to veto Ohio HB 8. The proposed legislation poses concerning threats to religious freedom and the separation of church and state in public education across Ohio communities. While the legality of optional release time religious instruction (RTRI) programs is established,
From a verified voter in Vandalia, OHLearn to do your job! According to Congressman Meuser, the House's job isn't to serve as the elected representatives of the people, to write laws, manage the budget, or act as a check on executive power, but rather to simply nod dumbly and rubberstamp fascism.
From a verified voter in Vandalia, OHTrump is blaming Biden for your failure. This is a Biden problem to solve? Okay, arrest Trump and deport Musk. Problem solved. What? Oh, I see. Well then, explain to me how REPUBLICANS failing to pass a REPUBLICAN bill in a majority REPULBICAN House is somehow Biden's problem to solve? Becaus
From a verified voter in Vandalia, OHYou people are pathetic. Just so we’re clear what just happened: Republicans tore apart their funding agreement with Democrats after Elon Musk told them to. They created a new bill that defunded child cancer research. And then they failed to pass that bill too.
From a constituent in West Chester, OHPrioritize timely, full-year appropriations to enable government functioning
The continued use of continuing resolutions to fund the federal government is highly disruptive and inefficient. CRs create uncertainty, limit management options for agencies, and result in administrative burdens as staff must repeatedly prepare for potential shutdowns. Between FY 2010-2022, there w
From a verified voter in Akron, OHVeto HB 8
Dear Governor DeWine, I am writing to express my deep concern about House Bill 8 and to strongly urge you to veto this harmful legislation. As a licensed professional clinical counselor and a resident of Ohio, I feel compelled to advocate for the rights, safety, and well-being of LGBTQIA+ youth and
From a verified voter in Cleveland, OHVeto Ohio House Bill 8, threat to education

This misguided legislation would mandate parental notification for any instructional materials containing sexuality content, potentially limiting access to comprehensive
From a verified voter in Vandalia, OHHB8 I categorically oppose the so-called Parents Bill of Rights. Parents raise their children at home. Their influence does NOT extend into schools. Schools face enormous challenges, if they have to try to mollify every parent, total failure will ensue. Constitutionally, religion has NO place in
From a verified voter in Columbus, OHVeto discriminatory "Don't Say Gay" bill harming LGBTQ+ students
H.B. 8, also referred to as the "Don't Say Gay" bill, should be vetoed. This legislation aims to prohibit classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade. However, it goes beyond that by also restricting "age-inappropriate" content for older studen
From a verified voter in Beavercreek, OHVeto HB8
HB8 is a forced outing bill and harmful curriculum bill. It blocks free speech of students and teachers. It discriminates against LGBTQIA+ parents and families, which will cause harm to some of our most vulnerable kids. These kids have higher rates of suicide than any other group and this will promp
From a verified voter in Middletown, OHYour job was to pass a spending bill this week. You chose to listen to your new oligarch leader. Can't wait to see your name in the history books under people who stood by and let america fail.
From a constituent in Dayton, OHVeto Unsafe Students Act, protect students' privacy and rights

From a verified voter in Dublin, OHHB 8, the so-called "Parents' Bill of Rights," is an alarming piece of legislation that undermines the safety and wellbeing of LGBTQ+ students in Ohio's public schools.

From a constituent in Galloway, OHVeto HB 8
Veto HB 8. Ohioans want our officials working on real problems- not made up cultural war nonsense that hurts kids and will further drive educators out of their classrooms. Hate is not a good look for you, our officials or Ohio
From a verified voter in Columbus, OHVETO HB8. This bill is not a clean bill and has so many unintended consequences. One of which is making the arts and world languages non-core. My child attends a wonderful public French immersion school and this could have impacts on his education down the road. This is an assault on all sorts of pu
From a verified voter in Brecksville, OHNo government shutdown
A government shutdown hurts working-class Americans and always ends up costing us more. There is a bipartisan bill in the works that would prevent it. Please do not bow to the pressure from president-elect Trump. There are three branches to our government for a reason and the president does not
From a verified voter in Brecksville, OHno recess appointments
The recess appointment process undermines the critical system of checks and balances enshrined in our Constitution. Allowing the executive branch to unilaterally install officials without Senate approval circumvents an essential oversight role and consolidates power in a way the Framers explicitly s

From a verified voter in Spencerville, OHPass a continuing resolution. It's unfair to Americans that our country gets held hostage with government shutdowns. New Year.

From a verified voter in Cleveland, OHI urge you to vote NO on HB 8 and allow families and school districts to decide what is best for their communities.

From a constituent in Columbus, OHProtect LGBTQ+ students - Oppose Ohio House Bill 8
House Bill 8 threatens the safety and well-being of LGBTQ+ students and families in Ohio. This harmful legislation would require schools to notify parents about any perceived changes to a student's gender identity or mental health, essentially forcing educators to "out" LGBTQ+ students without their
