Vote No on Issue 1 Re-districtingISSUE 1 Re-districting: Not accountable. Not elected. not “fair”. DON’T BUY THE LIES! Here are the facts on issue 1 1) LED BY SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS & A CAREER POLITICIAN: Maureen O’Connor has taken the lead on ISSUE 1 by joining with the ACLU and other SPECIAL INTEREST groups to manipulate maps to gain CONTROL of the statehouse, and insert the policy agendas of those groups, and marketing it as a “citizens not politicians” initiative! 2 ) REMOVES ACCOUNTABILITY TO VOTERS- TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION: The tax-payer funded, “citizen commission” map drawers are NOT ELECTED and they will be totally UNACCOUNTABLE to the VOTERS. Instead, they will subject to the lobbying of special interests and big money donors. Elected official are REQUIRED to DISCLOSE campaign and investment reports. The citizen commission is NOT. If voters feel the maps are unfair, there is NOTHING they can do. Voters DON’T HIRE them, so they CAN’T FIRE them! 3) REMOVES OVERSIGHT: Maps under Issue 1 WON’T be subject to REVIEW by the Ohio courts and can ONLY be CHALLENGED and reviewed BY APPOINTED “special masters”. 4) MANDATES GERRYMANDERING & CAN GIVE GOVERNOR ULTIMATE CONTROL : The “Citizen Commission” will be required under the amendment to gerrymander districts politically and racially to meet "proportionality." They will need to draw districts based on the total statewide votes each party receives over a period of time. This effectively determines the number of Republican and Democrat seats in the statehouse. When Republicans fall below 60 seats in the House or 20 in the Senate, it will be IMPOSSIBLE for them to have the numbers needed to pass a constitutional amendments like “Un-Mask Ohio” OR to OVERRIDE a VETO from the governor. This would leave the state POWERLESS against harmful “public heath” mandates during pandemics, or when the governor VETOS crucial medical freedom or child protection bills like we saw with SB 22 and HB 68 (The Safe Act)! 5) ELIMINATES EXISTING GERRYMANDING RESTRICTIONS: Issue 1 ELIMINATES the anti-gerrymander restrictions mandated by VOTERS in 2015 and 2018.

-
Watching Ohio House Bill 425 (expired)Bill to prohibit certain actions related to COVID-19 and genetic technologies. While HB425 aims to reduce vaccine choice discrimination in Ohio, this bill would only apply to "vaccines" utilizing "messenger ribonucleic acid, deoxyribonucleic acid, or any other genetic vaccine technology".OhioAMF believes that vaccine choice bills should protect all Ohioans in all circumstances, as such, we support HB248. We are waiting to see how this bill evolves before making further determinations regarding our support or opposition to the bill. Read more about the bill.
-
Watching Ohio House Bill 411 (expired)Bill to prohibit mandatory disclosures related to an individual's COVID-19 vaccination status, to name the act the Individual Privacy and Anti-Discrimination Act, and to declare an emergency. While HB411 aims to reduce vaccine choice discrimination in Ohio, OhioAMF's analysis of the bill is that it is a much weaker version of Ohio House Bill 248, and OhioAMF fully supports HB248.

-
Watching Ohio House Bill 401 (expired)Bill to exempt an injury or disability caused by an employer-mandated COVID-19 vaccination from the Workers' Compensation Law and to allow the employee to sue the employer for damages. While HB401 would make a good effort at reducing vaccine choice discrimination in Ohio, since employers would assume liability for vaccine-related injuries to employees as a result of employer-mandated vaccines, OhioAMF believes that employers shouldn't be permitted to mandate vaccines to begin with, such as the protections provided within HB248. We are waiting to see how this bill evolves before making further determinations regarding our support or opposition to the bill. Read more about the bill.
-
Watching Ohio House Bill 388 (expired)Bill to prohibit taking certain actions against an individual because the individual refuses to be vaccinated against a disease.

We are waiting to see how this bill evolves before making further determinations regarding our support or opposition to the bill. Read more about the bill.
-
Watching Ohio House Bill 202 (expired)Bill to prohibit state mask mandates during the current state of emergency. Our concern is that this bill is that it doesn't protect our mask choice from county, township, city, or other local jurisdictions, or from private sector requirements by employers, businesses, etc. Additionally, per the bill, if made law, it would only apply to the current state of emergency, and would not apply to future emergency orders.
