OHIO LIBERTY COUNCIL CHANGING NAME TO OHIO
LIBERTY COALITION
Columbus, Ohio - The Ohio Liberty Council announced
today that it is changing it's name to Ohio Liberty Coalition after a unanimous
vote by its Board at it's April meeting. Tom Zawistowski, President of the OLC
explained, "For over two years there have been complaints from another
conservative organization, whose name is the Liberty Counsel, that our name -
Ohio Liberty Council - was confusing to the public. The Liberty Counsel is a
non-profit public interest law firm which is based out of Orlando, Florida.
After months of discussions to address the issue, it was mutually agreed that
we could clear up any confusion in the public's mind if we just changed the last
word of our name from Council to Coalition. Therefore, effective immediately,
the Ohio Liberty Council is now Ohio Liberty Coalition and our new web address
will be www.ohiolibertycoalition.org."
The phone numbers and mailing address for Ohio
Liberty Coalition will remain the same. For a period of time, people accessing
the previous web address will be redirected to the new web address and directed
to update their bookmarks. All of the organization's email addresses will have
to change to the new domain. Our new facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/OhioLibertyCoalition while
our Twitter address remains @OhioLiberty.
The Ohio Liberty Coalition is a coalition of Liberty
group leaders whose purpose is to unite conservative grassroots organizations
for greater effectiveness in the state and nation, and to provide resources for
member organizations to strengthen their groups. The OLC currently has over 75
liberty-minded groups across Ohio who are members of its coalition.

Obama Campaign Office Violates Civil Rights Law
Civil rights lawyers told The Daily Caller that President Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign managers may have violated employment law by hiring an overwhelmingly white office staff for his campaign headquarters in Chicago.
That skewed workforce is starkly visible in an April photo released by Obama’s Chicago office, which shows roughly 100 of the office’s staff.
Only two of the people in the photo, far in the back, are clearly African-American, far below their 13 percent of the national population, and their 33-percent representation in Chicago.

HOUSE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE REGARDING IRS ACTIONS AGAINST TEA PARTY GROUPS
Columbus, Ohio - The Ohio Liberty Council welcomed the letter sent yesterday, March 1, 2012, by the House Ways and Means Committee Oversight Chairman Charles Boustany (R-LA) requesting that the IRS give a complete response to a previous request for general information on the tax-exempt sector, IRS audits and compliance activities related to tax-exempt organizations. The letter also requests additional information following reports that the IRS was questioning certain tax-exempt applicants, including grassroots political entities such as local TEA Party groups, about their operations and donors. For the past six weeks, hundreds of TEA Party groups and other conservative non-profit organizations across the country have suddenly received letters from the IRS demanding information about their members, donors, speakers at their events, affiliation with elected officials, and other highly confidential information.
Ohio Liberty Council President Tom Zawistowski said, “Those of us in the liberty movement who have been fighting against the politically motivated efforts of the IRS to intimidate and stop the activity of TEA Party groups around the nation, are glad to see someone giving the IRS a list of questions to answer about their actions and activites. We thank Chairman Boustany for beginning the process of finding out who is behind this attack on our First Amendment Rights to Political Free Speech and Freedom of Assembly. We hope in his next request to the IRS he will demand that the IRS show proof that they have asked the same questions of union and other liberal groups that are also 501(c)4 tax-exempt organizations.”
The Ohio Liberty Council is a council of leaders whose purpose is to unite conservative grassroots organizations for greater effectiveness in the state and nation, and to provide resources for member organizations to strengthen their groups. The OLC currently has over 75 liberty-minded groups across Ohio who are members of its coalition.

OHIO LIBERTY COUNCIL REFUSES TO COMPLY WITH IRS REQUEST
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Thursday, February 16, 2010
Contact: Tom Zawistowski, TomZ@OhioLibertyCouncil.org
OHIO LIBERTY COUNCIL REFUSES TO COMPLY WITH IRS REQUEST
Columbus, Ohio - The Ohio Liberty Council today announce that it would refuse to comply with an IRS request for information concerning the organizations application for non-profit status which has been delayed for the past 18 months. The IRS was informed in a letter today from Ohio Liberty Council President, Tom Zawistowski, that said “We find that your requests are unreasonable, overly burdensome, intrusive and possibly politically motivated and that they have little to do with determining our organization’s qualifications for non-profit status. Instead we believe that your requests force our organization to either forfeit our First Amendment Rights to Free Political Speech and Freedom of Assembly or deny us the non-profit status we are entitled to under IRS regulations. Neither of which is acceptable.”
The letter went on to say “Therefore, we hereby refuse to comply with your request. We have asked our Congressional Representatives to investigate your actions and intentions and we are exploring every legal means available to defend our rights. We answered all pertinent questions about our organization in our detailed original 1024 application in June of 2010 and see no reason why non-profit status should not be granted. We hereby request that our organization be granted non-profit status on the basis of that application without further delay.”
Zawistowski closed by saying “I defy any American to read this list of demands by the IRS and not be outraged. This is the kind of personal information that this government is going to be demanding from your church, your doctor, your hospital, your business and your favorite charity going forward. This isn’t speculation, these documents prove it is actually happening and will continue - particularly under Obamacare. Like the Catholic Church, we will not comply, we will resist with all our might, and defend the Constitution.”
The Ohio Liberty Council is a council of leaders whose purpose is to unite conservative grassroots organizations for greater effectiveness in the state and nation, and to provide resources for member organizations to strengthen their groups. The OLC currently has over 75 liberty-minded groups across Ohio who are members of its coalition.

A word from the Ohio Liberty Council - Kasich has gas....

Governor John Kasich
Riffe Center, 30th Floor
77 South High Street
Columbus, OH 43215-6117
Dear Governor Kasich,
I am disappointed to read this morning in the Columbus Dispatch of your plans to impose a state "impact fee" as a new tax on oil and natural gas wells. Though we agree that damage to rural roads and bridges is an issue that must be addressed, we do not agree that a new state tax, in addition to expanding the state severance tax to include natural gas liquids, is the right answer. Particularly when we are talking about "potential damage" vs known actual damage that this tax would pay to repair.
Clearly, the oil and gas boom in Ohio is going to generate significant growth in tax revenues from personal income tax, sales tax, CAT taxes and now additional severance tax revenue. They will also generate tax revenue for county and municipal governments. Since these are rural roads, which are not maintained by the state, we feel that it is an intrusion for the state to levy this new tax. Instead, local communities should be working with the energy companies to be compensated for actual damages which would be much more efficient in actually maintaining these roads and much less burdensome on this important growth industry.
We have told every state official we have meet that they must resist the short sighted temptation to tax natural gas and oil production at the well head. The engine of capitalism is "Cheap, plentiful, energy". Our goal must be to do everything we can do to encourage development of oil, gas and coal by not imposing burdensome taxes at the source, but instead getting our tax revenue from the downline business that will startup and grow because of the low cost, plentiful energy. Let's not kill the goose that will lay the golden egg. Let us instead nurture it for the benefit of everyone in our state. We ask that you reconsider your plan at this time and continue to help these companies establish this industry firmly in Ohio.
Sincerely,
Thomas R. Zawistowski

IMPOSED ON INDUSTRY
Kasich seeks taxes on oil, gas drilling
Assessments would help pay to repair roads
- View Larger
By Dan Gearino and Joe Vardon
Wednesday January 18, 2012 6:34 AM
Ohio’s oil and gas industry would pay an “impact fee” for deep-shale wells to cover the cost of infrastructure damage caused by oil and gas extraction, part of a package of taxes and fees for the industry that Gov. John Kasich soon will propose.
Kasich confirmed his intentions to The Dispatch yesterday and said he has maintained contact with industry leaders regarding his plans.
This is occurring as energy companies invest billions in leases to drill for oil and gas in Ohio’s Utica shale, and amid rising concerns about the environmental consequences of drilling.
Drilling activity in the state is expected to increase truck traffic on rural roads, potentially damaging roads and bridges.
“We have to make sure we have impact fees,” Kasich said. “At some point, these counties are going to benefit, but in the early years, when it comes to the erosion of roads and infrastructure, we need to make sure that these locals are going to be in a position to manage their infrastructure.”
In addition to the fee — the amount has not been determined — Kasich wants to revise the state’s severance tax to include natural-gas liquids. The tax now applies to the withdrawal of coal, natural gas and other resources but does not include natural-gas liquids such as propane.
The proposals probably will be included in Kasich’s midbiennial budget review, to be introduced in the first half of this year, although they could be announced separately before the budget review is unveiled, he said.
Partly to head off this talk of new taxes, the Ohio Oil and Gas Association is releasing a report projecting that state and local governments will see a $1 billion increase in annual tax income from the industry by 2015 under the current tax system. That would represent a 4 percent increase in proceeds from all businesses, said the report, produced by Kleinhenz & Associates of Cleveland.
“It’s just not good policy to start a new tax because you can,” said Tom Stewart, executive vice president of the trade group.
Environmental advocates say that new taxes are a good idea if some of the proceeds go to communities that need to cover costs related to drilling activity.
“There will be more and more stress on local communities to have the fire and emergency support there to help fund the infrastructure that’s needed” for drilling, said Trent Dougherty, a staff attorney for the Ohio Environmental Council.
But lawmakers need to be careful in deciding how to structure a new tax, said Donald Tobin, tax-policy professor at the Moritz College of Law at Ohio State University. “The question is whether the tax is at such a level to discourage the activity,” he said.
Tobin also has concerns about the state government increasing its reliance on a “revenue source that has significant peaks and valleys.” This could be a problem, particularly if an increase in oil-and-gas taxes coincides with a decrease in taxes from less-volatile sources.
Kasich said he doesn’t want to “discourage development” by imposing fees and taxes that are too high, but he also said that “you can’t have the local people out there having their roads undone and say, ‘It’s not my problem.’ ”
“I think we’re going to be in a really good place on this,” Kasich said, referring to the levying of taxes and fees without pricing companies out of investing in Ohio.
Leaders in the oil and gas industry argue that they already face a substantial tax burden from four state taxes: the personal income tax, sales tax, commercial activities tax and severance tax. They also pay taxes to county and municipal governments.
The severance tax took in $10.6 million in 2010, most of which was related to the coal industry. That is barely a blip in the state budget, but the sum is poised to triple by 2015, according to the Kleinhenz report.
Contrary to perceptions, most oil and gas companies do not earn huge profits from which to pay higher taxes, said Jerry James, president of Artex Oil in Marietta and also president of the Ohio Oil and Gas Association.
“You can kill a business before it has a chance to get started,” James said.
A QUICK LOOK BEHIND WHILE WE WAIT FOR OUR CANDIDATES TO LINE UP...
Ohio Unions - I am not anti-union. I am pro individual choice. Big Unions are Big Government.
"Out-of-state union donations, grossly understated by Ohio media, far exceeded the “Yes on 2″ campaign’s entire budget. The Ohio Education Association (OEA), a despicable band of hypocrites whose average pay in 2010 was more than $95,000, took an extra $54 from every member to kill Senate Bill 5. OEA alone dumped more than $5.8 million into “We Are Ohio.”
Did the unions spend $30 million exposing an ill-advised portion of Senate Bill 5, or pushing some compelling argument about the need for powerful public unions? Hah! The unions spent more than $800,000 collecting signatures for the referendum; bragging that this constituted “grassroots” support was the most honest aspect of their campaign.
“We Are Ohio” claimed passing Issue 2 would mean fewer firefighters and nurses, leaving Ohio houses to burn and patients to perish. They released a radio ad saying Issue 2 would “take us back to the days of Jim Crow,” misrepresenting at every turn the effort to limit union power as an attack on Ohio’s middle class. They lied that Republican politicians exploited a “loophole” in the bill, though elected officials have never been subject to collective bargaining. They insisted local budgets were dandy before Kasich’s election.
Even without spending unprecedented amounts to mislead Ohio’s electorate, unions are built for fighting reform; union bosses become millionaires on the strength of their class warfare. In my opinion, Issue 2 came down to two questions:
How many Ohio government employees see through the Progressive narrative shoved down their throats courtesy of their mandatory dues?
How many Ohio taxpayers with friends & family in public work think for themselves when told Governor Kasich is out to steal workers’ benefits and punch their babies?
OEA & Co. don’t have to lumber into a defensive stance when their stranglehold is threatened. They just keep doing what they do every day – painting themselves as victims and taxpayers as villains. It worked, to the detriment of everyone except the union bosses.
Sadly, a majority of Ohio voters chose to ignore fiscal reality. In return for killing Issue 2, Ohio can expect:
More tax hikes than would have been necessary with Senate Bill 5
More layoffs of teachers, firefighters, and police than would have been necessary with Senate Bill 5
More service cuts than would have been necessary with Senate Bill 5
None of Senate Bill 5’s drop-dead obvious reforms to benefits & automatic pay hikes
More lost House seats as employers and citizens flee
Those who voted No on Issue 2 have guaranteed the results they were told their votes would prevent. This is bad news for anyone who doesn’t get rich from the government union racket, especially the thousands of young public workers whose jobs will be sacrificed on the altar of union demands."
I am also tired of otherwise intelligent people using the race card to stop the common sense approach to problem solving. Race has nothing to do with expecting people to have good work ethic, self respect and a desire to get off of welfare and back to work. Using this tired old approach creates dependence on the failed system of socialism to control the poor of every color. Here Newt wins one up for the Gipper.
Please note. This is not an endorsement for Knewt. It is an attempt to educate you on the
failures of the left and their tired excuses, finger pointing and blame throwing. It is also a great
answer with real life examples that contrast how the left holds the minds of people captive while
convincing them that they are free, while real freedom is being independent of that type of thinking.

Patriots,
The meeting to Get Out The Vote (GOTV) will be held next Tuesday Sept 20th at the Chamber of Commerce at 6:30 PM. This should be a short meeting to give you materials & instructions on getting out in the neighborhoods. Your help is needed! If you haven't signed up, please do so. If you've been screaming at the TV & wondering what to do, wonder no more. Being pro-active helps to overcome the frustration & you are performing your civic duty at the same time.
Until the election, we will have these meetings every 7 to 10 days in order to keep everybody up to date on what needs to be done. Please let me know if you will be attending.
Also, to let everybody know, I have 10 copies of the 5000 Year Leap at $6 per copy. These are usually $20 per copy, but by ordering 10 at a time they are at the lower price. We may be able to do a class on this sometime this winter. More on that later.
Thanks for helping.
Judy
