We call on the U.S. government to abide by the rule of law and the will of the U.S. public, and to leave behind its long history of interventions, overthrows, and coups, which has included efforts to overturn the government of Venezuela many times, including for much of the past decade.

URGENT! All SIXTEEN judges of the Franklin County Municipal Court need to hear from many people that we want them to ban ICE from our Municipal Court. They need to decide as a body to take action! Please call or write, starting TODAY! Write or call FOUR each day and you’ll be done by the end of the week! Use this template from AAMP to get you started.

Thousands of cars pass through this intersection during rush hour every weekday. And the intersection is surrounded by the public Village Green Park on all four sides, giving us lots of room to hold signs protesting the ongoing destruction of our democracy by the Trump/DOGE administration.

J.U.S.T builds consciousness in part by supplying essential resources that our local community needs to survive, such as hot meals, clean clothes, and hygiene products. We deeply believe in materially and ideologically meeting people where they are at. 

The community serve is held twice a month at 2627 Sullivant Ave. The service provides many essential needs, such as food, clothing, books, hygiene items, and much more. The best part is that it's
free and the perfect starting place for newcomers to join us in helping the community.

This year’s debate will feature the two Columbus City Council candidates and six Columbus City School Board candidates. Organized and led by young people, this event centers youth voices in shaping the future of our city. The debate offers a critical opportunity for Central Ohio voters, especially those under 25, to hear directly from candidates on the issues impacting their schools, neighborhoods, and city.

"Ignorance of the law is no excuse" for you and me, but ignorance of the Constitution is an excuse for the government.

When a cop violates your right to speak, protest, or be free from unreasonable force, qualified immunity steps in to protect them. Likewise for any public employee.

It's time for this to stop. We need leaders like you in Columbus.

Step up and stop the spread of government overreach in Ohio.
