Ohio teacher organizes town halls to protest Trump policies

Christy Pember, a teacher from Harrison, organized a meeting in Cincinnati with over 50 attendees to discuss opposition to the Trump Administration. The group, Coffee. Compassion. Action!, aims to mobilize grassroots efforts against recent government policies. Participants formed groups to strategize on social media, rallies, and campaign funding. Pember's primary goal is to encourage Ohio Senators Jon Husted and Bernie Moreno to hold town halls for constituents to voice concerns about federal job cuts and potential reductions to Social Security and Medicaid. The National Republican Congressional Committee recently advised against in-person town halls due to heated voter discussions. Pember seeks six town halls across Ohio before July, but only Senator Moreno's office responded, emphasizing his commitment to engaging with constituents.
