  • Short-Term Voucher Fixes
    SHORT-TERM VOUCHER FIXES A common repeated message goes a long way when trying to get members of the legislature to listen. Please call members of the Ohio Senate and Ohio House Leadership and Education Committee members with this message for short-term fixes to Voucher Funding. 1. Remove budget language from House Bill 166 expanding vouchers in grades 7-8 and for high schools. Restore voucher language to pre-budget language. Rationale: The budget expansion places a financial burden on traditional public school districts and was not fully vetted during the Senate or House budget process 2. Limit report card look back to 2017-2018, 2018-2019 and direct ODE to recalculate the buildings eligible for vouchers based on the new look back language. Rationale: The State should not make judgements about a building’s performance based on six or seven (2013-2014) year old data. The safe harbor provided schools the ability to catch up with the rapid changes made by the legislature seven years ago when testing and cut scores rapidly changed. Using recent data is a more accurate reflection of what is happening in schools even with a flawed report card. Nearly half of the 2020-2021buildings received an overall grade of A, B or C on their current state report card. 3. Make the default for vouchers the Expansion (income) vouchers instead of the Traditional EdChoice voucher. Rationale: Making EdChoice the default for new vouchers has placed a heavy financial burden on traditional school districts. Since the state has frozen the foundation funding for the biennium, then it should not deduct funding from schools to pay for private education of students who never attended their districts.

How Bicyclists Guide to Voting is compiled: The Bike Miami Valley Regional Advocacy Committee has published the 3rd Voters Guide to provide a forum for candidates to discuss issues of walking, bicycling, and street or trail use. Bicycling is a legal form of transportation in Ohio and has the same rules and rights to the roads as any other vehicle. This Guide also highlights information that can help an everyday recreational bicyclists, a dedicated multi-modal user or a daily cycling commuter get insight to candidates’ political viewpoints, I BIKE, I WALK, opinions, and personal experiences with bicycling. Letters with four questions were sent to candidates in contested races within the Miami Valley area (counties that are I VOTE! represented in Bike Miami Valley’s regional membership base). Candidate responses have been printed to fit formatting. If a candidate did not respond, NO REPLY indicates the Election 2018 candidate either did not respond or did not meet the stated deadline. In each office, an asterisks (*) notes the incumbent candidates only in the first question, underneath how Bicyclists Guide to Voting many candidates a voter can select on the ballot. Bike Miami Valley does not endorse or support views of any candidate or political in Clark, Greene, Miami & party. Nor does Bike Miami Valley assume responsibility for the content of any Montgomery Counties candidate’s reply. takes that confusion and chaos would ensure that roads are repaired away.

  • Ohio General Election Guide General Election: November 3, 2020
    Ohio General Election Guide General Election: November 3, 2020 Summary of Races: The biggest story in Statehouse races as we approach Election Day is the recent charges that have been brought against Larry Householder. The criminal complaint brought against him alleges he took part in a $61 million racketeering scheme. As the case pends in federal court, many of the campaign funds that the House Republican Caucus rely on for financial support have been frozen and likely will not be able to be accessed until after the election. In what is already a tough cycle because of the presidential election, having the financial resources compromised puts many of the races in question. Having competed against a super majority for several years and seeing the presidential election as a boon for their base, the House Democrats were already looking to pick up quite a few seats. With the new financial woes that the Republicans could face, Democrats see this election as their chance to bring better balance to the party scale in the People’s Chamber. This impact could bleed into the Senate races as well. It is also worth noting that although the House has voted Larry Householder out of the Speaker position, he remains a Representative and will also still appear on the ballot in his district. However, since the news of the criminal charges broke, four individuals have declared candidacies against him. Since the petition deadline had passed by the time of this arrest, all four opponents will be write-in candidates. At a minimum, there will be at least 19 new members of the House and five new members of the Senate.

  • 2018 Post-General Election Update
    2018 post-general election update November 7, 2018 On Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Ohioans cast ballots in the 2018 general election. For the first time since 2006, five statewide elected offices were up for election without an incumbent running in the 2018 general election. Federal offices, including all Ohio U.S. Representatives seats and one U.S. Senate seat, two Ohio Supreme Court seats, all seats in the Ohio House of Representatives and 17 Ohio Senate seats were on the ballot. Many counties in Ohio and around the country reported record- breaking early voter turnout. Nearly 1.5 million ballots were requested by mail and in person, and an estimated 1.3 million had been cast as of the close of early voting on November 5, 2018. Here is Bricker & Eckler’s overview of the 2018 general election results and details on races of particular interest. STATEWIDE BALLOT ISSUES Issue 1: This proposed constitutional amendment was filed as the “Neighborhood Safety, Drug Treatment, and Rehabilitation Amendment.” If adopted, the amendment would have, among other things, required reductions in sentencing in certain situations, mandated that certain criminal offenses or uses of any drugs, such as fentanyl and heroin, can only be classified as a misdemeanor, and prohibited jail time as a sentence for obtaining, possessing or using such drugs until an individual’s third offense within 24 months. Issue 1 was defeated by 63.41 percent. The Ohio Safe and Healthy Communities Campaign led the way in support of the proposed constitutional amendment. Supporters of Issue 1 were financially supported by Open Society Policy Center, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and the Open Philanthropy Project Action Fund.
