Yesterday #StowOhio broke ground for our amphitheater #TheAmp. We’re creating a new entertainment district through a public-private partnership that’s bringing in new local restaurants. This type of community gathering space has long been wanted in Stow: www.stowohio.gov/697/The-Venue

"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'"

These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now.

Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.

The City of Stow’s new Environmental Commission will meet for the first time this Wednesday, March 11, at 6:30pm. Members of the public are invited to attend the swearing-in and participate in the meeting: stowohio.gov/676

The City of Stow’s Bow Wow Beach is officially OPEN! The dogs are having fun chasing Canadian visitors into the water. Learn more about #BowWowBeach and how to help sponsor the 2026 season: www.stowohio.gov/355/Bow-Wow-...

Thank you @repemiliasykes.bsky.social for leading this important conversation about addressing our regional housing shortage in order to bring down the rapidly inflating costs of homes and property taxes. Stow has been updating our Zoning Code to cut red tape, but we can and must do more!

Our last chance to defend Home Rule is to ask Governor DeWine to VETO #SenateBill63. Please help:

Thank you to my longtime friend and former Stow-Munroe Falls teacher @kimyoak.bsky.social for testifying to support smart math education in Ohio schools!

It’s another day of sun in #StowOhio! The American Red Cross is running a blood drive at Stow’s Safety Center — come by 2:30pm to give! And Kari Erdman is ready as always to welcome you to City Hall and point you in the right direction — she’s already decorated for St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀🌈

The House is voting to ban #RCV today at 2pm.

#StopTheBan by calling your Rep now! Tell them why you want them to vote NO on #SB63.

Need a phone number? Look it up at: https://ohiohouse.gov/members/district-map

Tell your Ohio state representative to STOP the ban on ranked choice voting! Urge them to OPPOSE SB 63

Ohio's #RankedChoiceVoting Ban Bill #SenateBill63 is being teed up for a vote by the Ohio House TOMORROW! 🚨

Tell your Reps you agree with the Ohio Municipal League & Ohio Mayors Alliance – regardless how they feel about RCV, #SB63 is an assault on Cities' constitutional Home Rule powers:

Profile pic from last year’s Statehouse News interview when I pushed to help make @ohdems.bsky.social more consistently pro-democracy and anti-corruption — before I was elected Chair of @ohdemspride.bsky.social and confirmed to serve on the State Central Committee: www.statenews.org/government-p...

Sad to see Republicans turn Ohio into one of the most homophobic states in America as they fan the flames of intolerance in attempt to distract from their rampant corruption.

At least @ohdems.bsky.social are trying to defend us and all Ohioans from Republicans serving the Epstein Class.

Public comments can make a difference by showing that people power is stronger than corrupt elites! Thanks to all the Ohioans who gave testimony against #SB63: rtvo.org/stoptheban

Munroe Falls Council President @rwidenor.bsky.social and I ask the Ohio Statehouse to stop attacking our Cities’ Home Rule powers of local self-government.

More on #SB63 from @ohagainstextremism.bsky.social: ohagainstextremism.substack.com/p/finally-bipartisan-support-to-checks

Stop The Ban Senate Bill 63 is a threat to Home Rule that not only bans Ranked Choice Voting – it takes power away from voters and lets Statehouse politicians dictate how our communities are run.

The Ohio House General Government Committee is moving with #SB63 – an attempt to violate cities' constitutional powers of local self-government by banning #RankedChoiceVoting: rtvo.org/stoptheban

Submit testimony by 4:15pm Monday 2/16: ohiohouse.gov/committees/g...

@rankthevoteohio.bsky.social

Thank you to Local Elected Officials and @ohiovotercoalition.bsky.social groups defending our constitutional powers of local self-government from Ohio’s #RankedChoiceVoting Ban #SB63.

Stow City Council Starts 2026 Strong Quick wins in January and solid plans for this term as Stow shines as a Model City

Thanks to all the Stowites planning to come show support for City Council and our shared goals TOMORROW. It's not too late to make a resolution to be more civically engaged in 2026! Here are updates on recent wins, what to expect at meetings, and more: kylehermanohio.substack.com/p/stow-city-...

Ohio Dems need more candidates like @bakerforprogress.bsky.social who are authentically and consistently pro-democracy and anti-corruption!

Thank you @sherrodbrownoh.bsky.social. More of us are speaking out: bsky.app/profile/ohde...

Thank you to Elected Officials and Allies across the political spectrum and at all levels who are lifting your voices in defense of liberty and justice for ALL! 🇺🇸🗽🦅

DeWine, Brown decry Haiti TPS ending - many Ohio officials stay quiet amid ICE uncertainty Ohio politicians are largely reticent to say much about the looming Feb. 3 expiration of many Haitian immigrants’ legal status, or the federal immigration enforcement that is expected but uncertain…

“DeWine, Brown decry Haiti TPS ending - many Ohio officials stay quiet amid ICE uncertainty.” www.daytondailynews.com/local/dewine...

Thank you former Senator @sherrodbrownoh.bsky.social for voicing moral and factual clarity.

Senators Moreno and Husted should uphold their constitutional responsibilities to hold ICE accountable.

Reasonable Republicans agree this shouldn’t be partisan: thehill.com/homenews/sen...

Strong statement by the man who was President when my generation were children — back when Presidents were held more accountable by Congress for their moral failures, which were rarer and far less damaging to America and our People.

Is President Clinton a Boomer prophet for Millennial heroes?

The videos from Minneapolis are horrific. ICE should defer to local law enforcement instead of attacking innocent civilians. Thank you Rep. Sykes for speaking up in defense of our constitutional rights and our communities.

DM me if you want to join “ANTIFA” 😉

Apply for the City of Stow’s new Environmental Commission, which we voted to create during our last Council Meeting to help advise our City and support public education: www.stowohio.org/676/Environm...

Thank you for speaking up. Students of history know that the American Revolution and our Constitution were based on the premise that Americans should not be killed by our Government in such arbitrary ways without due process — like they were during the Boston Massacre.

I agree with Our Congresswoman @repemiliasykes.bsky.social: “It is incumbent upon elected leaders at every level to reject political violence, uphold the Constitution, and tell the truth, especially when it is difficult.”
