Good news, there is something in the works for a constitutional amendment www.statenews.org/government-p...
Campaign for an anti-discrimination amendment for Ohio is in the works
There’s an effort underway to bring a proposed constitutional amendment before voters that seeks to provide equal protection for Ohioans regardless of gender, age or sexual orientation.

Another thing that you are unfortunately right about that I missed, I hope that there are plans in the future to propose a constitutional amendment

Oh no you’re right, I saw it on a legislative update summary and it must have not been updated. Trying to find out if any similar bills have been introduced for the 136th GA

It’s extremely important to contact your representatives on these things. In Ohio, our government is controlled by a majority republicans. We need to let our representatives know that they are supported by their voters so they will keep trying to get things like this done.

“But same sex marriage is legal why does this matter?”
Same sex marriage is legal, for now, bc of one SCOTUS case, Obergefell v. Hodges. As we saw with Roe v. Wade, SCOTUS can overturn this case. If that happens, this provision of Ohio law would prohibit same sex marriage. That’s why it matters.

What can you do about this? Email or call your Ohio rep & senator, tell them that you support same sex marriage & you want them to support H.B. 332.
