Action Alert from LWVO

Ohio politicians in the legislature and the Ohio Redistricting Commission are about to redraw our US Congressional districts. During the 2024 campaign for a constitutional amendment to create an independent redistricting commission, many of these same leaders claimed that Ohio’s redistricting process worked well for Ohio voters.

Now is their chance to prove it.

John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (JLVRAA)

Submitted by Perrysburg Area in August 2025.

60th Anniversary of the Voting Rights Act

(The following was copied from LWVUS's 08/06/25 Action Alert.)

Sixty years ago, Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act (VRA) into law, outlawing discriminatory barriers that prevented voters of color from exercising their right to vote.

In the decades since it was passed into law, the VRA has been reauthorized every time with bipartisan support and signed by presidents of both political parties. The VRA remains necessary to this day to prevent voter discrimination for all of us, no matter the language we speak, the color of our skin, or the zip code we live in.

The Senate just reintroduced the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act (JLVRAA), which will fully modernize and restore the VRA to protect voters against discrimination.

 Tell your Representatives and Senators to support the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and live up to the full promise of American democracy.

Action Alert from LWVO: Tell Ohio Senators, "No Veto Override"

Submitted by Perrysburg Area in July 2025.

Action Alert from LWVO

The decision to maintain the governor’s veto or override it now goes to the Ohio Senate. 

(The following was copied from LWVO's Action Alert.)

This week [week of 07/21/25] , you helped us stop the Ohio House from overriding two of the vetoes Governor DeWine issued before signing Ohio’s 2026-27 main operating budget. Both provisions would have taken funding from schools and other vital public services, hurting communities across Ohio. 

Unfortunately, House members were successful in passing—by just one vote—an override to the governor’s veto of a provision that takes away local authority to decide what kind of property tax levies work best in their communities. 

The decision to maintain the governor’s veto or override it, now goes to the Ohio Senate. It's up to us: we must stop this override.
