Black words on white - I want a government that is not for sale

Sunday, December 16, 3:30pm
Northside Library, 1423 N. High
Join Yes We Can Columbus for a planning and strategy session this Sunday from 3:30 - 5:00 pm at the Northside Library Branch (1423 N High St, Columbus, OH 43201) - Meeting Room 3. 

We have been working to build a local government works for all of us and make sure residents can hold elected officials accountable. 

In order to make that happen, we need to make sure we have reasonable local campaign contribution limits. The proposed legislation has a limit ($12,707.79) that basically ensures that a handful of multi-millionaires will continue to own / control our local democracy.

We've already shifted the conversation and helped delay the process. The Ginther Adminstration was hoping to pass it earlier this week on Monday.

At the City Council meeting on Monday, they announced that City Council will have another public hearing on this issue on Thursday, Jan. 3 at 5:30 PM.

This may be the only additional public hearing (Council hasn't laid out clear next steps besides this meeting). That means that Jan. 3 is our opportunity to change the proposed legislation and continue to shift the public narrative around the proposed legislation. 

We need your help to pack the hearing and show Council and the media that the public is watching and that we will not stand for a limit that's just smoke and mirrors.
