“Fair Maps Day,” hosted by Ohio AFL-CIO and five other organizations

Tuesday, September 21, 10am-2pm, Ohio Statehouse

Join us for Fair Maps Day, our biggest, most important in-person event, as we come together from all across Ohio to demand fair maps.

We have a full day of action planned, including a press conference, a march around the Statehouse, speeches, scheduled lobby visits, and more. It will be a show of force that official mapmakers will not be able to ignore!

We’re hoping to have representation for every county in Ohio. We are asking each and every one of you to show up and speak up for fair districts!
