Sincere thanks to the 13 House Democrats who voted yesterday vs HB 230. The 100% failed War on Drugs has proven we cannot cage our way out of serious, complex drug problems & expect success. But it's been our primary approach for many decades & been a failure the entire time.
HB 230, the drug trafficking bill that will burst Ohio’s prisons, was re-referred to committee for an amendment. All committee members, including all Dems, then - again - voted it out. I expect it on the House floor today. Rare bipartisanship…for all the wrong reasons.
This morning, I will testify in support of HB 149, a GOP bill to regulate the use of drones by law enforcement. Across Ohio, all kinds of invasive surveillance tech is used with little/no statutory restrictions. That is a massive legislative & policy failure.
Every day from the Statehouse is another reason to vote in November to end partisan gerrymandering once & for all. Every. Day.

Understandably, there is plenty of confusion about the current status & progress of legalized cannabis in Ohio since Issue 2 passed in November. My colleague @Higgins_ACLUOH hits the high points (no pun intended) & tells where to go for more information. acluohio.org/en/news/what-s…
Terrible day for those who spend their political careers punching down. Thoughts & prayers.
Terrible day for those who spend their political careers punching down. Thoughts & prayers.
When I started at the ACLU of Ohio in 1995, Ohio's prisons were stretched beyond capacity. That's been true every single day for the past 29 years because, over the decades, legislators keep packing our prisons full with new, unnecessary & harsher laws. axios.com/local/columbus…
Under Ohio's absurd SB 83, should a college instructor wish to teach about this day 121 years ago, they must also teach the perspective/side of the white supremacists responsible for this evil. Of course, the SB 83 idea is to keep colleges from teaching this history at all.

While it does not involve civil liberties, I am personally a proponent of HB 342, a bill to declare April 18th "Devo Day" in Ohio. Their pronouncements & foreshadowing of societal devolution seems particularly relevant at the Statehouse. #OhNoItsDevo
In the midst of major corruption (once again) swirling around the Statehouse, the House GOP continues to move its wacky anti-trans school/college bill, HB 183. These bills are their priority. On a related note, redistricting reform will be on the Nov 2024 ballot.

The large-scale deployment of armed officers to suppress peaceful protest on college campuses around the country is a shocking development. This response to peaceful protest is an assault on free speech–and it is also deeply reckless. (1/x)
UPDATE: In the wake of the shocking events at UT Austin yesterday, FIRE filed public records requests last night with both the university and the Texas Department of Public Safety. We’re looking into UT Austin’s protest-related comms with state officials. We’ll keep you posted…
The chilling show of force at the University of Texas at Austin is a disproportionate response to an apparently peaceful protest. Sending in a phalanx of law enforcement threatens protected speech where it should be at its most free: a public university like UT Austin.…

Exciting news! Today, a Franklin County judge temporarily blocked HB 68, meaning that, for now, trans youth will be able to continue accessing gender-affirming care AND trans women and girls can continue to play school sports on the teams that align with their gender identity.

🎉BREAKING: The Franklin County Court of Common Pleas just granted our request to temporarily block HB 68 from taking effect. Transgender youth will be able to access life-saving medical care. Full statement coming soon.
