Head to a protest today. I can almost promise you will feel less hopeless. That's exactly what they don't want. There are more of us than there are of them.

I have friends who are not bring cell phones to rallies this weekend.

My response was that if they come for me (white, relatively wealthy, suburban woman with a “professional” career) than we have already lost.

Get out in the streets on Saturday - before you are scared to be in the streets.

Calling the newest effort to complete their hostile takeover of our government by the name they cooked up for it credulously helps them in their cause. It's the Silence Voters Act, the MAGA Monarchy Act, the Politician Protection Act.

If you say "SAVE" you're advancing their narrative.

Ohio Attorney General seeks stay after appeals court overturns gender-affirming care ban The outcome of these legal battles will have implications for transgender adolescents in Ohio seeking gender-affirming medical care.

Last week, we filed a brief in the 10th District Court of Appeals, opposing the state's request that the injunction against HB 68 be delayed. Ohio's ban on gender affirming care violates at least 2 provisions of the Ohio Constitution.

We await a decision.

The lineup for our Hands Off rally is absolutely fantastic: ACLU Ohio executive director Ben Guess, Lorain County native, Tom Bowen (from President Biden’s White House). You don’t want to miss this. We know it’s spring in Ohio and have a plan for bad weather.
