Court Ordered Child Support? BANNED! The Unintended Consequences of Issue 3

November 7, 2011 • Get Out and Vote Edition • www.uaprogressiveaction.com 

Ohio's Issue 3 is a disaster waiting to happen and current polling shows it passing on November 8th by wide margin. Unless you help get the word out.

Every major Ohio newspaper has come out against Ohio Issue 3 even traditionally conservative papers that endorsed Issue 2.

• Athens News: Issue 3 will disrupt, complicate health care in Ohio (Oct. 26)
• Cleveland Plain Dealer: No on Issue 3: editorial (Oct. 22)
• Canton Repository: Editorial: Let’s not go down this road again (Oct. 21)
• Akron Beacon Journal: No on Issue 3 (Oct. 16)
• Toledo Blade: No on Issue 3 (Oct. 16)
• Athens Messenger: Statewide ballot issues ... our endorsements (Oct. 16)
• Columbus Dispatch: Health-care amendment wouldn’t override federal law, might cause problems (Oct. 14)

Plunderbund: "For example, if Issue 3 passes, Kasich would be unable to attempt many of the reforms on Ohio’s Worker Compensation system that he’s been promising. And conservatives would likely find any new anti-abortion laws to be in violation of Ohio’s constitution under the changes implemented in Issue 3. Reporting of new contagious diseases? Banned under Issue 3. New school immunizations? BANNED!"

Read the research Innovation Ohio published about the amendment's unintended consequences.

Issue 3: Sloppy, costly and wildly off-target

This year it's easy to remember:  NO-NO-NO on Issues 1, 2 and 3.

Make no mistake. The eyes of the nation are on Ohio right now. Our opponents are the Karl Roves and Koch Brothers of the world, and they are looking for cracks in our resolve.

The number of "NO" votes cast by Tuesday, November 8, will either encourage or discourage these deep-pocketed special interest groups. It's our time to mark off the distance they'll need to cover in the future!
