Although not about the union...it is all connected...destroying Ohio's environment.

Support local businesses that support public sector employees.

I just think this is a brilliant idea. You can go to the Proud Workers of Ohio site to find local merchants who support public sector employees. From the website:

"The Proud Ohio Worker program was created to allow merchants across the state to show that they recognize public employee support for their shops. We are asking merchants to show their support in return for public employees by affixing our sticker to a window in the front of their store. This sticker is a signal to public and private employees that their shop is worker friendly, simply recognizing that public dollars are spent in their store.

Proud Ohio Workers wants to ensure that small shops all across Ohio will remain open. If public employee wages are reduced and jobs are cut, local businesses will suffer. Supporting the creation and retention of good paying middle class jobs is good for local economies."
