The year was exhausting: from March to June, Protect Choice Ohio petition collection to enshrine reproductive rights in the Ohio Constitution; from July to August 8th, fight off Issue 1 which was designed to make it impossible to pass citizen-led Constitutional amendments (No on Issue 1 on August 8th); followed by the effort to pass reproductive rights (Yes on Issue 1 on November 7th) while also endorsing for UA school board and city council candidates. Signs, postcards, canvassing, oh my!
