The OEC Action Fund unequivocally endorses the Protect One Person One Vote coalition’s campaign. The coalition launched today after the Ohio General Assembly passed SJR 2, a measure that the OEC Action Fund continuously opposed. The campaign — which represents millions of Ohio voters — will urge voters to oppose the amendment, which destroys the principle of “one person one vote” and empowers special interests over the people.

OEC Action Fund condemns Governor DeWine’s signature of HB 458 and HB 507
Today, Governor Mike DeWine signed both House Bill 458 and House Bill 507 into law. The OEC Action Fund condemns the passage of these two bills pushed through in the waning hours of the 134th General Assembly. House Bill 458 was originally focused on August special elections, but it was amended into a sweeping anti-voter bill that massively changes how elections are administered and how Ohioans can access their most fundamental American right. House Bill 507, originally intended to govern the sale of poultry, removes critical public oversight and locks-in polluters’ control over what public lands in Ohio are leased and when.
