Visit Our Booth at the Ohio State Fair

July 29, 2025

Good Tuesday morning,

It’s Ohio State Fair time again and we are having a great experience talking to hundreds and hundreds of people about why Vouchers Hurt Ohio.

Our booth is in the same place it was last year in the John Bricker building so please visit us.

We are asking visitors to write the name of their favorite public school teacher to post on our wall of heroes board.

We are also talking to people about the recent ruling by Franklin County Judge Jaiza Page that found the EdChoice voucher program unconstitutional on three counts.

When people hear that $1.5 billion in tax dollars are being taken from public schools and given to private, mostly religious schools, they get angry.

And when they learn that these vouchers are mostly going to wealthy families whose children were already enrolled in these private schools, they get even madder.

Finally, when we tell them these private schools can and do discriminate against students based on race, religion, family income, academic or athletic ability, or if the child is disabled, they immediately want to get involved and ask: how can I help?

We ask them to sign a letter to their local public school education leaders that ask those leaders to get on the right side of history and join our lawsuit because we still have a lot of work to do.

The state is appealing Judge Page’s ruling. No surprise there.

Their case is as weak as ever, but we have to continue and we need to get as many school districts on board as possible as the case heads to the Ohio Supreme Court.

You can help too.

Is your district part of our historic lawsuit? Check here.

If not, why not. Learn how to join here.

See you at the State Fair. It runs through Sunday.

Sincerely,

Vouchers Hurt Ohio
