Ensure Every Ohioan Has The Freedom to Vote

Here in Ohio, we value our freedom. We believe Ohioans should pick their leadersand not the other way around.

No matter our skin color or background, Ohioans deserve to have a say in the important decisions that impact our lives — from getting access to life-saving medications to creating well-paying jobs to making health care affordable.

In order to do that, we must protect our constitutional freedom to vote.

 
 

We must have fair and equal representation in our democracy.  

 

For too long, extremist politicians in Ohio have undermined the will of the people by rigging our maps, passing anti-protest laws, and lying about our elections. And now, they try to use our public schools to spread lies about America’s real history, all the while taking precious resources away from our kids and classrooms. 

Joining together across race and place, we’re making sure that all Ohioans have equal say in our democracy. We’re speaking out for fair maps and pushing for federal legislation that will enshrine and protect our freedom to vote.

Together, we’re electing leaders who govern in our interests and help make Ohio a place that represents all of us.

 
 

Here are our policy solutions:

 
  • Pass fair and representative maps in the state legislative and congressional redistricting process. 

  • Protect voters from being purged from the rolls. 

  • Ensure that every Ohioan, no matter the color of our skin, how much money in our wallets, or whether we're currently a student or not, can exercise our freedom to vote

  • Protect Ohioans’ right to organize and protest legislation that hurts our families.  

  • Ensure every Ohioan can exercise their freedom to vote by giving voters more options through automatic voter registration and same-day registration.

  • Protect the voting rights of students and communities of color.

  • Restore voting rights for Ohioans who are currently incarcerated.

  • Make sure that every Ohioan knows their voting rights, including formerly incarcerated Ohioans

When Ohioans come together to protect our freedom to vote, we can make a better future for all of us. The color of our skin or zip code of our birth will no longer determine our chances of living long, fulfilling lives.
