A new Ohio law, specifically targeting organizations like Abortion Forward (formerly Pro-Choice Ohio), mandates us to verify the source of all our donations and restricts us to using domestically sourced donations from U.S. citizens or nationals for ballot initiatives and other political work. This law, signed by Governor DeWine, empowers Ohio Attorney General David Yost to investigate organizations engaged in political or ballot work. It imposes a substantial administrative burden on political organizations, particularly those supporting abortion rights and other progressive causes, and unfairly targets and penalizes immigrants. As a supporter, your understanding and action on HB1 are crucial. Learn more about the law and its impact here.
