Making the decision to strike is no small feat. It shows incredible bravery and respect for your fellow workers who enter each respective plant daily. As General Motors attempts to bust up the picket line by taking away the health insurance for 50,000 families, we as members of the Ohio Democratic Women’s Caucus are writing you all today to reaffirm our support for your strike. Unions are the backbone of labor in this country and we proudly stand behind the UAW and their efforts to ensure the fair treatment of employees across the country. As negotiations continue, we are hopeful for a fair compromise from General Motors and a successful strike. We stand with you. In solidarity, Rep.

The GLLC is the only nonpartisan, binational organization of state and provincial legislators from the eight states and two Canadian provinces that share the Great Lakes: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Ontario, Pennsylvania, Québec, and Wisconsin. As legislators from the Great Lakes states, we know firsthand the ecological and economic significance of the Great Lakes to our region and our nation. The lakes contain 84 percent of the surface fresh water in North America and provide drinking water to nearly 40 million people in the U.S. and Canada. Over 1.5 million jobs are directly connected to the lakes, generating an estimated $62 billion annually in wages in industries such as manufacturing, tourism, and shipping. Our Great Lakes are both a natural wonder and an economic engine that deserve our unwavering support.

Bipartisan Group of 32 Legislators Asks State of Ohio to Reconsider “Puzzling”, “Unusual” Ruling That Kills Lake Erie Wind Turbine Project
For Immediate Release Contact: Nancy Lesic, 216.392.9634, [email protected] Bipartisan group of 32 legislators asks State of Ohio to reconsider “puzzling”, “unusual” ruling that kills Lake Erie wind turbine project Developer says last week’s corruption developments give additional cause for reconsideration as fossil fuel interests opposed the innovative Icebreaker Wind project. Columbus – July 29, 2020 – A bipartisan group of 32 legislators from across Northeast Ohio have sent a letter to State of Ohio authorities to reconsider operating restrictions placed on an offshore wind demonstration project in Lake Erie. The legislators allege those restrictions kill the project, and they implore Chairman Sam Randazzo of the Ohio Power Siting Board (OPSB) to approve the project without the onerous conditions. The OPSB imposed a “shutdown condition” mandating the wind farm cease operations every night from March until November, which renders the Icebreaker Wind project financially unfeasible. The condition stunned developers and advocates of the project and represented a reversal of an agreement developers reached with the State last year after the State’s own expert testified under oath the shutdown mandate was not needed. The project is being developed by the Lake Erie Energy Development Corp. (“LEEDCo”). Senators Matt Dolan (R-Chagrin Falls) and Sandra Williams (D-Cleveland), together with Representatives Jeff Crossman (D-Parma) and Dave Greenspan (R-Westlake), championed this bipartisan letter. The legislators represent a broad and diverse cross-section of Northeast Ohio from 11 counties stretching from Huron to Ashtabula, Cuyahoga to Summit, and also Geauga, Mahoning, Medina, Portage and Trumbull counties. Together, the 32 legislators comprise almost a quarter of the entire General Assembly.

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.

HB 443 - Mental Health Parity
Psychologists for a Productive Ohio Access to Mental Health Services for All Ohioans HB 443 - Mental Health Parity Primary Sponsors: Representatives Phil Plummer (R) District 40 and Allison Russo (D) District 24 Co-Sponsors: Representatives Gil Blair, Kristin Boggs, Janine R. Boyd, Juanita Brent, Randi Clites, Jeffrey Crossman, David Leland, Michele Lepore-Hagan, Mary Lightbody, Beth Liston, Don Manning, Adam C. Miller, Jessica Miranda, Phil Robinson, Gary Scherer, William Seitz, Michael Skindell, Kent Smith, Lisa Sobecki, Fred Strahorn, Bride Rose Sweeney, Terrence Upchurch, Casey Weinstein, Thomas West According to the 2008 Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA), Health Insurance companies are not allowed to have any restrictions on mental health cover- age that they do not impose on physical health coverage. The lack of access to mental health services is a contributing factor in several trends in the country in Ohio. • The lack of access has contributed to a 55% increase in emergency room admission from 2006 to 2013. • 25% of those discharged from Mental Hospitals are re-hospitalized for the same reason, due to a lack of follow up in the community. • From 2017 to 2018, Ohio experienced a 25% increase in suicides. Historically, the healthcare industry has viewed mental health and substance use issues as less critical. This is the case despite the fact that mental health issues underlie many chronic physical health problems, such Chronic Pain, Diabetes and Coronary care. Right now, our ability to respond to the opiate crisis is restrained by limitations the health insurance industry imposed on substance abuse treatment.
