Protest/Rally

The PUCO has postponed the hearings for the third time, to August 31, for which date we will reschedule our rally. Postponing is likely a good sign. PUCO has gotten a lot of push-back from the public, showing statistics that contradict the propaganda being fed to them by FirstEnergy. They will have a harder time rubberstamping the request and any complicity with industry would stand out.

Friday, August 21, 9am-12noon, beginning at McPerson Commons [also known as “Arch Park”], south of the intersection of John McConnell Blvd. and Nationwide Blvd.; and proceeding to a public area near the Columbus Convection Center, 400 N. High St.

“Americans for Prosperity,” a “front group” funded by the billionaire Koch Brothers, will be holding their “Defending the American Dream Summit” at the Columbus Convention Center, 400 N. High St., August 21-22.
