The battle of Wisconsin has awakened a sleeping giant—millions of people standing together to save the American Dream from severe budget cuts and attacks on the rights of working people.
We need to keep that momentum going here in Ohio, where a huge fight is brewing in Columbus over the state's budget.
Governor John Kasich has launched his own war on working people, stripping the rights of teachers, police, firefighters, and other public workers. And he's talking about deep budget cuts that could affect public education, health care, and more, all while cutting taxes for the rich.1
Wisconsin showed that the people are not going to let corporations and their allies on the right trample the American Dream without a fight. Now we have to send that same message in Ohio.
Here's what the petition says: "Ohio's budget has already been cut to the bone. Corporations and the wealthy must pay their fair share for quality schools, police, health care, and other vital public services."
After you sign, be sure to share this petition on Facebook and email it to your friends and neighbors in Cincinnati and around the state.
This is about the budget, but it's also about something bigger. We need to make this the moment when regular people stand up and say "no" to the corporations and right-wing politicians who want to strangle the public investments needed to keep the American Dream alive.

Please take a moment to add your name to the petition, and we'll deliver it to Gov. John Kasich and your state legislators by the end of this week.
