Vote "No" on Issue 2

 

Columbus- Today We Are Ohio released the following statement regarding the decision by the Ohio Ballot Board to make a "no" vote on Issue 2 a vote to repeal SB 5, the unfair attack on employee rights and worker safety. 


"We Are Ohio is pleased that Ohio Secretary of State Husted and the Ohio Ballot Board chose to follow the Ohio constitution and legal precedent by making a 'no' vote on Issue 2 a vote to repeal SB 5," said Melissa Fazekas, spokeswoman for We Are Ohio. "While our opposition may try to play political tricks to confuse voters, today's decision by the Ohio Ballot Board will make that harder. Now that another hurdle has been cleared, We Are Ohio is focused on making sure our more than 1.3 million supporters know to vote 'no' on Issue 2 in November."   

 

We Are Ohio is a citizen-driven, community-based, bipartisan coalition that has come together to repeal SB 5, the unfair attack on employee rights and worker safety. We Are Ohio includes public and private sector workers and employees, police officers, firefighters, teachers, nurses, pastors, small business owners, Republicans and Democrats, local elected officials and business leaders, students, Moms, Dads, family members, and your neighbors.
