Anti-democracy lawmakers are attacking our rights, and they are moving the legislation forward so fast that Ohioans are barely getting a chance to get the facts and speak up.

Well, here are the facts.

SB 153 and HB 233 are an attack on volunteers who put boots on the ground, collecting signatures for our democracy. These are our grandmothers and grandfathers, our parents, our family and friends and our coworkers, all who spend their weekends and spare time collecting signatures and fighting for workers’ rights and voters’ rights.

Volunteers who collect signatures would be forced to sign away their 5th Amendment constitutional rights, potentially subjecting them to politically motivated investigations. “Compensated” circulators would be required to wear badges, but “compensated” is defined so broadly it even applies to volunteers who receive free pizza or a t-shirt.

Those are the facts.

SB 153 and HB 233 are an attack on our democracy and our freedoms.

Send an email to Senator Kristina Roegner, the chair of the Government Committee, and tell her to SLOW DOWN and stop this high speed trainwreck of legislation.
