On Election Day, Ohio voters will get their chance to weigh in on Senate Bill 5, the new law that limits collective bargaining rights of public employees and bans public employees from striking. Senate Bill 5 basically gutted another law that had been on the books since 1983.  But ohio voters as far back as 1953 addressed the issue of worker rights. In this hour of All Sides, learn about the history behind Senate Bill five with two veteran journalists and a history scholar.

Guests:

  • William Hershey (Columbus Bureau Correspondent, Dayton Daily News)
  • John Green (Distinguished Professor of Political Science, University of Akron)
  • Eugene Branstool (sponsor of 1983 Collective Bargaining law)
  • Lee Leonard (veteran statehouse reporter)

Yet, in a democracy, should we know who is writing our laws? Leaked documents from the secretive American Legislative Exchange Council – a private issues club for corporations and lawmakers, included model bills written by the corporations for statehouses around the country.

We’ll hear from a writer for The Nation magazine, which is reporting on the ALEC leak,  an Ohio State Senator and longtime member of ALEC will join us and we’ll get some perspective on who writes laws for Ohio.

Guests:

  • John Nichols (Washington D.C. Correspondent, The Nation magazine)
  • Ohio State Senator Bill Seitz (American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) Board Member)
  • Lee Leonard (veteran statehouse reporter)
  • Laura Bischoff (Dayton Daily News Correspondent)
