Ohio Republican Party says Rep. Anthony Gonzalez should resign: Capitol Letter
Rotunda Rumblings
Going Gonzo: U.S. Rep. Anthony Gonzalez on Friday became the latest pro-impeachment House Republican to be raked over the coals by his state’s party. But as Jeremy Pelzer reports, the Ohio Republican Party not only voted to censure Gonzalez, but also passed an impromptu resolution calling for his resignation. Gonzalez didn’t respond Friday, though U.S. Sen. Rob Portman issued a statement supporting the Rocky River Republican.
Drug problem still rages: Ohio officials are sending 60,000 doses of naloxone nasal spray, which stops opioid overdoses, across the state, Laura Hancock reports. Last year at this time, overdose deaths increased in the spring and summer.

DEPC event on Criminal Justice Reform in Ohio and original resources on Drug Sentencing Reform in Ohio
I am very excited that next week the Drug Enforcement and Policy Center (DEPC) at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law is hosting a virtual panel discussion, titled
Ohio has a long history of criminal justice reform and drug sentencing reform, and yet few can be pleased that Ohio still has the 12th highest incarceration rate in the country and one of the highest rates of overdose deaths. With the passage of HB1 and the failure of SB3 at the end of 2020, many are left wondering what can and cannot be achieved through legislative reforms in Ohio. Please join us for a discussion of Ohio’s recent reform history, what we might expect in the near future, and how research and experience in other states can inform reform efforts in the Buckeye State.
