Environment America

AIPAC is a fund to pay our politicians to ensure they continue the interests of Israel throughout the United States. They lobby for strong U.S. and Israel relations and pro Israel policies. Both sides, democrats and republicans receive money from this PAC.

Israel and the United States are terrorists and war criminals and that includes our local leaders who support them.

WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE MOVEMENT

The Women’s Suffrage Monument Commission

Ohio’s Statehouse follows this trend. Currently there are no statues depicting real women, only an allegorical representation of Cornelia atop the These Are My Jewels monument. Only one woman, JoAnn Davidson, the first female Speaker of the Ohio House, is depicted in a painting outside of the “Ladies Gallery.” This must change.

“Women deserve to see themselves and their accomplishments represented in public spaces. Ohio is taking an important step in closing this representation gap. The Ohio Women’s Suffrage Commission imagines a future where women “rally at the monument” to build community and advocate for causes that impact Ohio’s future.”
