The City Council Non-Cooperation Campaign is focused on creating non-cooperation policies in cities around Central Ohio. We are developing resolutions which are presented to city councils, creating policies against cooperation with ICE and discrimination against trans individuals. Through this work our aim is to create protections for our trans and migrant neighbors, making Columbus and surrounding cities safer for the working class.

Ohio ranks fifth for data centers, with over 200 built and 77 more planned. But significant community pushback has developed over the vast amount of water and energy they consume -- resulting in new gas plants to power data centers across the state.
In this presentation, Save Ohio Parks discusses environmental and social justice concerns about data center energy use, and how data centers could be powered differently, along with recommendations for state and local officials.
Buckeye Environmental Network, Policy Matters Ohio, and Fair Shake Legal Services are working together to offer monthly drop-in office hours for people with questions or concerns about data centers.
Staff will answer questions, share resources, and help identify the legal, policy, or organizing support you may need.
These office hours are open to anyone with questions about data centers or looking for support with local organizing.
Drop in and talk with us!
