Gaywaves program in its entirety September 19, 2024

 

Our guest on this week's program is Chris Davey, who is the communication director for the Vote Yes on Issue 1 campaign, also known as Citizens not Politicians.

 

Issue 1 is the constitutional amendment that will change how Ohio draws legislative districts, moving the pencil from partisan elected officials to a panel of diverse citizens who are not running for office.

 

If there is a single thing LGBTQ Ohioans could do to help thwart the legislative attacks, it is this measure.  Accordingly, Gaywaves is on the record endorsing Issue 1.

 

In the news:

 

The nation of Georgia is signaling their desire to move closer to the Russian Federation by passing anti-LGBT laws that mirror Russia's.

 

Anti-transgender messages are making their way into political advertising, showing that anti-transgender messages are polling high in Republican races.  Gaywaves looks at ads and breaks it down.

 

Maria Bruno is no longer with Equality Ohio.  We look at her her new position directing a new organization.

 

All this and more!
