It's that fun time of year to stop union busting and negotiate a fair contract with your workers.

The Starbucks across the street from the Ohio Statehouse is unionizing! Among other anti-union tactics, workers expect to see their hours cut in retaliation. To help these fighters make ends meet, you can donate to the strike fund here:

It’s solidarity Monday! The community has created a fund for our Columbus Starbucks Workers United store that is in the process for forming their union! Please help by donating to the fund and sharing!

Seriously, this is like writing about barriers to little red riding hood reaching her grandmother’s house without mentioning the wolf.

Let’s get real. The #1 ‘barrier for immigrants to break into central Ohio politics’ is the need to be preselected by a mostly white, mostly affluent FCDP machine.

If only there was someone they could have asked…

6 out of our 7 councilmembers were appointed rather than elected. And not even 1 of them had the courage to stand up against police brutality and what Scott Woods rightly calls “state sanctioned killing of Black people.”

[Katy Shanahan @KatyAShanahan]

In case anyone thinks it’s just the GOP who has a lock on completely unaccountable politicians, I give you the entirely Dem-run city of Columbus who just gave the FOP a 17% raise and announced the vote before the public comment period ended 😐😑😐😑😐😑

Columbus deserves better.

[Columbus DSA 🌹 @Columbus_DSA]

“Democracy” - the Columbus Way!

[Liliana Rivera Baiman @Lili4Columbus]

Oops! Residents are reporting receiving vote results from tonight’s city council meeting that doesn’t begin until 5pm.

When trying to maintain the *appearance* of a democracy, it’s usually best to wait until after the public comment period to publish the pre-ordained results.

At some point I’ll start raising hell about how we change this insulting, degrading, and inequitable system. But tonight I’m just angry. We are the 14th largest city in America and we deserve better than this.

[Liliana Rivera Baiman @Lili4Columbus]

😡 Things are never going to change in this city when we don’t have a real democracy.

So many of us are frustrated, and this thinly veiled performance of democracy is all we are going to get.

“Guided democracy, also called managed democracy, is a formally democratic government that functions as a de facto autocracy. Such governments are legitimized by elections that are free and fair, but do not change the state's policies, motives, and goals.”
