Good news came in yesterday from Columbus!!!! Over 714,000 good folks in the great State of Ohio have signed the referendum petitions to repeal SB7, aka the union-busting bill, and I am proud to have my signature counted among theirs. The goal was to obtain 450,000 signatures and they predict that by the time all the petitions are in, we may double it. This means that there will be vote to repeal SB7 come November. Kudos to Ohio Attorney General, Jennifer Bruner, who spearheaded the referendum campaign, and the many volunteers who gave countless hours working to get and count the signatures!
Here's the video a young friend sent along who is studying film at OSU. I think she has a brilliant future with network news!
We are Ohio and we're standing loud and proud!!!!!! Take that, Governor Kasich! You're going down!
Happy Blogging!!!!!!!

SMASHING NEWS!!! Kay, i'm so proud of you and your sister/fellow ohioans! Keep up the great work!!
ReplyDeleteGood for Ohio!
ReplyDeleteWhoo Hoo !! Kudos to Ohio and I am so glad you are going to get Kasich.
ReplyDeleteI only wish we had that type of fight in Arizona. All I hear is whining. If I were younger I would become active in spurring petitions to take down our governor and the Phoenix legislators who are passing these obscene laws. I would also go after the Judge who just overturned the lower court's decision now making that nasty immigration law legal in Arizany. Gah!!!
Kay that is FANTASTIC NEWS. It gives me hope.
ReplyDeleteGreat for Ohio! People need to stand up for their rights or else we are doomed. -- barbara
ReplyDeleteM.E.: Thanks!!! I personally haven't done much except sign the petition and encourage others to do the same. However, I think I'm going to sign on for the processing if I can.
ReplyDeleteSnow: Amen!
Darlene: Well, I hope so! I wish you had an initiative in AZ, too.
Robert: It gives me hope, too.
Barbara: Indeed!
I hoped the Buckeyes would come through and know at least some of my friends there will be real happy, too.
ReplyDeleteCrossing my fingers for you folks out there.
