Jason Snead, Executive Director of Honest Elections Project Action, released the following statement:
“Congratulations to the Ohio Senate for once again passing legislation to ban foreign money in Ohio ballot issues. Foreign nationals are banned from donating to candidates. Ballot campaigns should be no different. The left-wing Sixteen Thirty Fund spent over $14 million in foreign-backed funds in Ohio last year, and is pumping even more money into ballot measures headed for the ballot this year. The people of Ohio deserve to know their elections are secure against foreign interference. It is time for Ohio House Speaker Jason Stephens to bring this bill to the floor for a vote.”
