We are deeply saddened by the Cleveland Clinic’s $2 million settlement with the Department of Justice (DOJ), the result being that the Clinic will withhold, for at least the next 20 years, science-based, gender-affirming care to children and families in need.

What started as a straightforward, nonpartisan bill addressing fees for birth certificates and IDs for homeless individuals has been co-opted by election deniers.

We cannot stand by as lawmakers misuse the political process to make dangerous changes to election laws.

🚨House Bill 251 provides police with a blank check to surveil, with drones, any and all of our travels, activities, and destinations without a warrant.

We urge Ohio Senators to reject this bill and protect the privacy of Ohioans by voting NO. ❌❌

HB 251 would permit warrantless drone use “to operate in navigable airspace, in a physically nonintrusive manner, in order to observe what is otherwise visible to the naked eye.”

This mass surveillance bill must be stopped.

No one should have to choose between paying student loans and buying groceries.
