As our press conference wraps up, we’re going live here in the Senate Local Elections Committee as they hear the proposed gerrymander map from Senator McColley.

Chair Gavarone is noting that the committee will take a recess at 11:40 for Rules and Reference Committee. Chair Gavarone is again instituting a five minute testimony rule. This is simply not enough time to testify fully about the proposed map.

‼️HAPPENING SOON

The 8am hearing of the House Government Oversight Committee with a *room change* to 114.

We also got warned by a Statehouse trooper that the statehouse doesn’t technically open until 8am. Perhaps someone should’ve told that to the House GOR committee? At today's hearing we will not only hear testimony on HB479 (the GOP proposed map), but also on the House Dems' proposed map (HB483).

🗣️ HAPPENING SOON

The Senate LocaL Gov't and Elections Committee's 3rd hearing on SB237 (Dem map proposal) and SB258 (GOP map proposal) starts at 9:30am.

We'll thread live updates from the hearing room - stay tuned! There is no one here to testify in person on SB237 (there is written testimony, though), so we are moving to in-person testimony on SB258.

‼️ HAPPENING NOW

The Senate Local Gov't and Elections hearing on both GOP- and Dem-proposed congressional maps.

This is the third hearing on each of the maps. Like last week, Chairwoman Gavarone is allowing each witness just 5 minutes to testify and all witnesses must submit their witness slips at least 24 hours in advance in order to testify.

Happy State Legislative Map Deadline Day, Ohio!

With just a few days’ notice, so many of our dedicated AOTL Ohio volunteers attended our 3 hearings to demand #FairMaps and are featured in this article’s run down.

Here’s some of our favorite 🧵👇

statenews.org/government-pol… First up is our own @CarrieCoisman who, as a reply to Sec. LaRose offering us a false choice between the two said:

“We are not picking between a fair process and a fair map. We voted for both, not one or the other.”

🗣️ HAPPENING SOON

The final public input hearing on the state legislative maps that will impact our political future for the next 10 years.

There are 87 (!!) people signed up to testify today, which would be shocking if we didn't already know y'all are ready for #FairMaps! While we wait for the hearing to start at 10:30am, why not get your morning off on the right foot by giving the Commission leaders a call/email to tell them to OPPOSE the GOP-proposed map.

Take action now! bit.ly/3AhLvxG

The testimony last night mirrored our own feelings and those of our coalition (@EqualDistricts) that the GOP map craves apart our communities, doesn’t reflect how we vote, and doesn’t give BIPOC communities the representation they deserve.

ohiocapitaljournal.com/2021/09/13/pub… We have just 2 hearings left where we can weigh in on the state legislative maps that will dictate our political future for the next decade.

Which one are you attending?

Today, we saw Republicans revealed to be at the center of a staggering corruption scandal at the Statehouse. At the heart of the issue is that under gerrymandered maps, politicians are more beholden to extremists and lobbyists than they are to their voters.

Thread to follow. So what happened? Speaker Larry Householder and four lobbyists were arrested in a $60 million racketeering and bribery scandal surrounding the passage of controversial HB6 - a bill that gutted our clean energy standards and bailed out two failing nuclear plants.
