I know it’s naive, but I really want our political leaders to respond to the serious crisis we face as a country without concern for their political futures. I know…naive/wishful thinking.

The "Kyle Rittenhouse Bill," SB 185, doesn't make Ohio safer; it just makes people like this think it's okay to kill people of color. Tell @wilkinohio to shoot this down in committee before instigators shoot us down. #stopOHantiprotestbills #ourvoicestogether

"Kyle Rittenhouse Bill," SB 185, would allow armed instigators to show up to protests in Ohio. It currently sits in the Government Oversight Committee in the House. Tell the Chair, Shane Wilkin @wilkinohio this bill needs to die so innocent protesters don't. #ourvoicestogether

Legislation can be daunting and difficult to completely understand. The Legislative Service Commission writes analyses of bills to make them easier to understand! If you’re confused on what HB 109 actually does, check out the analysis: https://t.co/ciN1tKgAML

@SenStabenow @SenGaryPeters Our communities cannot wait! The Senate must pass historic climate, jobs, & justice legislation in the #BuildBackBetter Act! #SealTheDeal

[UUJO @UUJusticeOhio]

Ohio’s House Bill 109, aims to worsen charges for protesters and creates new offenses for people who protest. It follows a national trend to restrict our rights to peacefully assemble.

Cindy Abrams (R) and Sara P. Carruthers (R) are championing HB 109; a vague bill that will hold people and organizations liable if they "knowingly might start a riot." They support Anti-protest bills because they don't want to see Americans stirring up 'good trouble.'
