If the far-right Ohio GOP's amendment passes in August, a 40% minority of voters will be able to block any amendment the majority wants. That's un-democratic and un-American.
🚨Vote NO August 8th!🚨
Let's get the vote out: by mail or at early voting. #GOTV
Abortion rights will be on the ballot soon & would pass with a simple majority, but Republicans are trying to move the goal posts & require 60% to pass the measure.
They hope abortion rights voters won't notice this special election August 8th.
My 1st full article in @SAAorg's American Antiquity went live online yesterday (oddly in the April print issue). Thanks to Dr. @BretRuby for very constructive feedback on an earlier version & 2 anonymous reviewers. cambridge.org/core/journals/… #archaeology#C14#Chronology#PublicationDay
"#Ohio#Hopewell is an archaeological concept that is known worldwide but that suffers from “a disarray of radiocarbon results”. Here, we establish a comprehensive dataset of 14C dates and apply formal chronometric hygiene criteria to all dates. ... suggest that religious practices provided shorter-term satisfaction and stability than previously recognized. #archaeology#C14#chronology

The DOJ said he began grooming the boys for commercial sex acts, using his position as a priest and teacher to ingratiate himself with the boys and their families as a trusted friend, mentor and spiritual counselor while serving at St. Catherines Catholic Parish school in Toledo, Ohio.
Ohio voters: Republicans in your state are trying to sneak a ballot measure by you during a special election coming up on August 8th. Special elections typically don’t see much turnout as it is and certainly Ohio Republicans are hoping voters don’t even show up at all. 1/2
The Shadowy Financial Empire Built Around Liberty HealthShare Is Showing Signs of Strain
Beers family members built a “conglomerate” — including an airline, a bank in the #Ozarks, carpet stores, a #marijuana farm, and more than $20M in #RealEstate — by selling a #Christian alternative to traditional #health#insurance.

Protesters flooded the Statehouse rotunda as Republicans moved to make it harder for an abortion rights ballot measure to pass in November.
Ohio Republicans are being pretty transparent in their efforts to block a proposed abortion ballot measure from passing by popular vote in November: They’re going to spend $20 million in taxpayer dollars to hold a special election that would raise the referendum threshold from a simple majority to 60 percent of the vote to win. #Ohio #abortion #gop
"#Ohio’s bill labeling gas as “green” appears to be more of a public relations stunt than anything. #Tennessee’s new law, on the other hand, has a specific, anti-#climate policy intent. It doesn’t just vaguely say that “#gas is #CleanEnergy;” it says that local governments attempting to set “clean energy” standards must include gas in that definition.
Three of the Tennessee bill’s co-sponsors are #ALEC members"
