So, are these maps even constitutional as 4 year maps since they didn't vote by midnight? #ohiostatehouse #redistricting
Senator Schaffer wants to focus on fraud, and is willing to throw the baby out with the bathwater by making it harder for all Ohioans to access basic food assistance.

Our director is now testifying as part of a broad-based coalition of @OhioansAgainstSB17. You can read our full submitted testimony here: search-prod.lis.state.oh.us/cm_pub_api/api…
'We need public, private, & charitable sectors working together on the same team.' #OhioCanDoBetter
We will be testifying today to stop more hurdles for families struggling to make ends meet. #ohioansagainstsb17
Eviction & homelessness affect nearly 200k Ohioans/year. Important documents get lost during these traumatic experiences. SB17 would require struggling Ohioans to produce documents that they often don’t have in order to get life-sustaining food and healthcare.

We’re calling on Ohio’s leaders to be sensible & sound in policymaking. SB 17:
👎 Costs Ohio $$$
👎 Harms low-wage workers
👎 Discourages saving
👎 Increases hardship
@GovMikeDewine & Ohio Senate GOP – stop this bill. #OhioCanDoBetter #OhioansAgainstSB17
Faith leaders are limited in what we can do to help our neighbors. We need leaders like Senator Rob McColley to stop legislation that will make it harder for us to serve our communities & make sure all have their daily bread. #OhioansAgainstSB17
SB 17 would harm victims of domestic violence, single moms who are paid low wages, older workers that lost jobs through no fault of their own, & workers w/ contingent & temporary hours at work. SB 17 harms low-wage workers. #OhioCanDoBetter #OhioansAgainstSB17
Everyone deserves to be able to make ends meet. It’s already difficult for the ppl to apply for SNAP, Medicaid, & unemployment. SB 17 would put more burden on churches and volunteers to fill gaps. We urge Sen. State Senator Kristina Roegner & cmte to stop the bill. #OhioansAgainstSB17
If I told you we could end hunger in Ohio, would you be supportive of this effort? I hope Governor Mike DeWine will support hungry Ohioans in his next budget #endhunger #ohiostatehouse
