Featured organization: Health Care For All Ohioans

Logo

Though the results of the national election were razor thin by my assessment, I think the turn toward authoritarianism and away from more pluralistic public policy making is troubling for all of society, not just those of us advocating for universal single payer healthcare. This billionaire lead DOGE advisory organization being formed will undoubtedly propose further monopoly of all aspects of our society.

Public statements about the austerity to be visited on broadly defined segments of our society, will only lead to further upheaval and division. Without extreme popular push back I feel we're in for a very fraught future in total.

Will more Salt Fork State Park and wildlife areas be fracked? Deicison at Dec. 9 meeting

The Oil and Gas Land Management Commission will consider fracking two large tracts at Salt Fork State Park, two wildlife areas and two rights-of-way along state highways at its Monday, Dec. 9 meeting.

The 1 p.m. meeting will be held at the Ohio Department of Public Safety, Charles D. Shipley Building, 1970 W. Broad St. in Columbus. A rally is planned for 12:15 p.m. outside the building.

"At 20,000 acres, Salt Fork State Park is Ohio's largest state park," said Anne Sparks, steering committee member at Save Ohio Parks. "This pristine area belongs to the people of Ohio in perpetuity, not politicians in office for a term or two. Twenty-four hour lights, noise and increased truck traffic will negatively impact people's health, disturb park user experiences and shrink its bird, animal and plant populations. Of note is that the commission delayed a decision on Salt Fork at its October meeting so it could read more than 300 public comments against fracking."

On the agenda for discussion, with possible approval or denial for fracking:

Tell the Senate: No more repression of the Palestine rights movement

People protesting blocking police cars

From Jewish Voice for Peace
As the Senate heads into its final weeks before the new Congress, we must block two incredibly dangerous pieces of repressive legislation.  The first is a version of legislation that just passed the House, known as the “Nonprofit Killer Bill,” which would give the incoming Trump administration the power to unilaterally shut down nonprofit organizations it doesn't like.  

At the same time, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer is attempting to bring to a vote a bill attacking the Palestine rights movement by falsely conflating criticism of the government and State of Israel with antisemitism. Both of these bills are part of the broader assault on the movement for Palestinian freedom and progressive causes writ large, and must be defeated.
