Sign at protest sayind End Qualified Immunity

The Ohio Coalition To End Qualified Immunity (The OCEQI) announces serious concerns regarding Secretary of State Frank LaRose’s repeated public hostility toward the proposed initiative aimed at ending qualified immunity, prosecutorial immunity, sovereign immunity, and all statutory immunities enjoyed by the government to the detriment of the people.

Over the past two years, Secretary LaRose has engaged in a pattern of false and disparaging statements about the initiative and its sponsors, referring to it as an “assault on our state constitution” and accusing its backers of being financed by “the radical left.” In an article by the Toledo Blade on August 10, 2023, Secretary LaRose claimed the initiative “threatens to unleash a flood of frivolous, politically motivated lawsuits against the brave men and women trying to protect our communities.”

November 30-December 1, 2024

Small Business Saturday encourages Americans across the country to support local small businesses. The day infuses money back into our local economies, promotes vibrant and diverse communities, and celebrates the important role of small businesses in the national economy.

Saturday in Grandview Heights -- Come out and shop small and local and be sure to put Yarn It on your schedule! If even thinking about shopping til you drop exhausts you, then just come by for a relaxing sit & stitch. Either way, we'll be glad to see you! To celebrate, we'll have a wee gift bag for the first 5 sales of the day and we'll be open until 5pm (rather than our usual 4) in case you need a little extra time to get to us.

Sunday -- 

Join the Central Ohio African American Chamber of Commerce (COAACC) for Small Business Sunday on December 1, from 12n - 5:00 p.m. We know... everywhere else nationally celebrates Small Business Saturday, but here in Columbus it's also OSU vs. Michigan and (hate it or love it) we know where Columbusites will be.
