A measure voted down by a Cincinnati council committee Tuesday would have required immediate disclosure of some campaign donations. Council Member Greg Landsman says he s working on a new version of his proposal to require sitting council members and the mayor to report donations above $200 within 48 hours. The donations would be published on a new city website where the public could search the filings. I think this is a really important step to restore public trust as it relates to contributions and votes, how policy is made, Landsman said.
Some members of the Law and Public Safety Committee objected to the measure, saying it would be a burden to require such frequent filing.

The resolution denounces the the insurrection and violence that occurred at the Capitol in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2021 and calls for the peaceful transition of power to the duly elected 46th president of the United States of America Joseph R. Biden, Jr. on January 20, 2021, something President Donald Trump has since said he will to do.
It was brought forward by council members Jan-Michele Lemon Kearney and Wendell Young. The mayor and all nine council members offered comments decrying the actions before voting. Such resolutions are often ceremonial in nature and beyond the scope of council; in the past members have objected to such documents because they don t pertain to the business of council.
