Last week, the lawmakers rushed HB 472, a really bad anti-voter bill, through the Ohio Statehouse, and it's now up to Governor DeWine to stop it with a veto.

The Governor needs to hear from you! Go to the link below to email him, or call him directly at (614) 644-4357, or (614) 466-3555.

Tell him HB 472 would:
📪 Make voting by mail much harder for eligible Ohio voters, especially those who are elderly, disabled, students, and living in rural areas
👀 Introduce identity theft and privacy concerns
💸Provide no new funding to BOEs to implement & manage huge new system

Rushing complicated election law always means unintended consequences that will hurt voters and election officials, and cost money and time to make right. Go here to email the governor to tell him to veto HB 472:
