PRIMARY ELECTION is MAY 5, 2026

OHIO EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT
Allen Dems will be helping  Ohio Equal Rights to get an initiative on the ballot in Nov. 2026. This initiative would protect citizens from discrimination based on race, color, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression regardless of sex assigned at birth, pregnancy status, genetic information, disease status, age, disability, recovery status, familial status, ancestry, national origin, or military and veteran status.

This initiative would also protect marriage equality in OH. Right now, marriage equality is only guaranteed by federal protections, and could be lost in OH if overturned on the federal level. Signature collections will take place through July. Details to come.
