Every County Republican Central Committee needs to join Clermont County in demanding our legislators do something about DeWine’s obvious and egregious actions against Ohioans’ freedoms.
If they do not – you have your answer about just who they really represent.
Please act NOW and reach out to your county Republican Party to act now on this resolution. Tell them to join this action.

For Immediate Release: January 22, 2021
State Representative (65th District) John Becker supports a Clermont County Republican Party resolution aimed at the Ohio Republican Party. It’s all about defeating Governor DeWine “by any legal means necessary”
.
UNION TOWNSHIP, CLERMONT COUNTY.
Former State Representative John Becker seconded, and spoke in favor of a resolution intended to counter the Ohio Republican Party’s intent to stack the deck against Governor DeWine’s primary election challenger(s).
At the January meeting of the Clermont County Republican Party, chaired by Greg Simpson, Becker stood and made the following statement: “Governor DeWine has flagrantly and repeatedly violated the US Constitution, the Ohio Constitution, and civil rights. He has lockstep support from the Democrats for a reason. He’s the most liberal governor we’ve had in recent history and must be defeated by any legal means necessary.”
The Party regulars are disenchanted by Governor DeWine’s dictatorial control and unlawful orders to unilaterally destroy Ohio’s economy and the fabric of society:
• Unlawfully cancelling an election.
• Unlawfully placing 11.7 million Ohioans under house arrest.
• Unlawfully ordering schools to close.
• Unlawfully closing healthcare facilities in violation of Article I, Section 21 of the Ohio Constitution.
• Unlawfully picking winners and losers by arbitrarily deciding which businesses should live and which ones should die.
• Unlawfully creating curfews.
•Unlawfully requiring face coverings. (Many find them insulting, humiliating, degrading, and arguably dangerous. The science and experience supporting their value (other than N-95) is negligible and even laughable.)
• Cruelly weaponizing the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation and other state agencies against businesses and the people.
The list goes on…Many of these are criminal offenses that are both impeachable and prosecutable.
