Empowering Voters: Understanding Campaign Financing, Fair Districting, and Poll ParticipationBrett and Carol chat with Jen Miller, the Executive Director of the League of Women Voters Ohio, about the nitty-gritty of ballot issues and voting policies.Jen talks about a cool bipartisan effort to draft a new amendment (Issue 1), mentioning notable figures like Maureen O'Connor and Yvette McGee Brown. This amendment has some serious backing from a wide range of groups, including teachers' and nurses' unions, the NAACP, and even the Libertarian Party.The conversation takes a turn towards the topic of dark money in politics, which became a hot issue after the Citizens United decision. Jen underscores the need for transparency so voters know who's funding political ads. She's passionate about ending gerrymandering, believing it would make legislatures more responsive and improve policymaking. Gerrymandering, she argues, kills voter satisfaction and participation.More engagement and compromise in the legislature would tone down extremism and serve citizens better. Jen encourages everyone to get involved in democracy, pointing to resources like vote411.org and voteohio.gov. She also talks about the importance of becoming poll workers and making sure our communities are ready to vote.Jen criticizes gerrymandering for reducing accountability and allowing representatives to focus more on party extremes and big donors rather than a broader voter base. Despite these obstacles, she urges citizens to stay vocal and visit district offices.The League of Women Voters Ohio is highlighted as a diverse organization in terms of age, offering great opportunities for mentorship between older and younger members. Jen gives tips on making voting less intimidating for young voters, like checking registration and polling locations since these frequently change.We talk about Ohio's strict voter ID requirements—now including passports and specific veteran IDs while excluding county veteran IDs. Jen calls for veterans to advocate for changes to these laws. There's also a mention of fewer candidates participating in forums, which reduces chances for voter-candidate interactions. The League organizes forums with a “speed dating” style to let voters meet candidates without heated debates.Jen and Brett discuss the rise of misinformation and the need for consuming diverse media to keep from getting stuck in echo chambers. Brett expresses frustration when candidates don't take forum questions seriously, feeling it reflects poorly on their ability to serve in office. They both mention the impact of gerrymandering on these issues.In Ohio, recent changes to the election process have led to voter dissatisfaction, partly fueled by misinformation from elected officials. Jen suggests voters hold state authorities like the Secretary of State accountable for election integrity. She also lists ways to engage, like attending hearings, contacting election boards, volunteering as poll workers, and using the Election Protection Hotline (866-OUR-VOTE) for any issues.The League of Women Voters is all about fair election practices and doesn't play sides. They've been around since the Ohio Women's Suffrage Association days, focusing on empowering voters, especially women. They operate on national, state, and local levels and rely heavily on volunteers to keep things running smoothly.Jen emphasizes the importance of informed voting and spells out the steps for absentee/mail voters, urging them not to procrastinate. Tips include mailing ballots early and using county dropboxes to avoid delays. She also goes over Ohio's strict ID requirements again, stressing that voters need to check what's valid now.Jen dives deeper into gerrymandering, explaining Issue 1 (OH), which aims to reform the redistricting process. The goal is to keep politicians and lobbyists out, ensure a balanced commission, and...

Faith Organizers Kelley Fox and Rev. Terry Williams welcome back Jen Miller, Executive Director of the League of Women Voters of Ohio (LWVO). Our first repeat guest, in this episode Jen breaks down everything voters need to know about Ohio's 2024 Issue 1 ballot campaign “Citizens Not Politicians.” Self-described as “fiercely nonpartisan,” the LWVO has been at the forefront of fighting gerrymandering in Ohio for well over 100 years. Jen helps Kelley and Rev. Terry cut through the hype with history and hard facts, laying out why Citizens Not Politicians is supported by Republicans, Democrats, and Independents across Ohio & why a Yes on 1 is so important to Ohioans this year.

SummaryElanco Animal Health launched a national campaign to spread awareness about the start of the deadly season for canine parvovirus, one of the most contagious and deadly dog viruses. Dr. Jen Miller explains that parvovirus primarily affects young puppies that are either not vaccinated or not completely through their vaccine series. The virus is spread through contaminated feces and can live in the environment for a long time. Symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, and blood in the stool, and if left untreated, the death rate can be as high as 91%.

Rick, Noah's dad, runs his blog, the nonprofit and speaks globally to advocate, support and champion families who are facing and living this diagnosis. Hope Story is partnering OB/GYNs all over the country with success stories of raising children with Down Syndrome and giving them the tools to start the conversations. Rick also shares how we can support this community of incredibly special people and gives us tools to start conversations. This episode far exceeded my expectations. We thought we were sitting down with two fun parents who have this incredible boy and friend of Max. We thought we were sitting with our kids' pediatrician to chat about life with Noah, but what we learned is so much more! This episode is filled with WRK on inclusively, hope and making an impact in a forgotten space.

SEASON II How exciting that we get to come back with more WRK this year. We have some special conversations lined up, but in this episode, we are recapping all that 2020 and Season I had for us. We agree that 2020 was full of Wisdom, Revelation and Knowledge in ways that we never imagined. 2020 was an incredible teacher and we want to talk about it. Our plan was do do this at the end of last year, but life threw us both a curveball and we decided that it was better come back strong than finish with stress. Today we are joined with two of our biggest fans, Carrie Von Strohe and Mike Martinez. @meems0 on Instagram, Michael is a connoisseur of GREAT THINGS, one being this podcast. @carrievonstrohe is our biggest champion and full of ideas to promote and make this podcast known. These two along with all of you have made this journey so fun and so special. Thank you for coming along with us. You can follow us on IG @dodomiller & @catviz. Coming soon is our website where you can download any episode, but you can also catch us on Anchor, Apple Podcasts and Spotify. This episode was produced by Think Lab Studio.
