Who is Marc Dann?

Whether he’s leading the charge to expose and clean up corruption, fighting to make sure our troops in Iraq have the body armor they need, working to improve our public schools, protecting our environment, defending Social Security, or helping to preserve family farms, Marc Dann brings a lifelong commitment to Democratic principles and a fierce devotion to working families to the Ohio Senate.

Not content to sit by and watch as the Republican Party and special interests loot and mismanage our great state, Senator Dann has amassed an impressive record during his time in Columbus. He has introduced innovative, sensible legislation that will make life better for Ohioans of all ages and he is recognized as one of the General Assembly’s most thoughtful and tenacious members—a tireless champion for doing what’s right.

His fight against corruption and the special interests that fuel and fund it didn’t begin with Coingate—the myriad scandals that have cost Ohio taxpayers and businesses hundreds of millions of dollars. He began his efforts to clean up Ohio politics by introducing legislation that will bring transparency and accountability to campaign fundraising and reduce the influence of the big money donors who have too much control over our state.

He acted immediately when members of the National Guard and their families told him that Ohio’s fighting men and women in Iraq didn’t have the lifesaving equipment they needed. Not only did he stand with soldiers and their families, he fought for additional funding to buy the body armor that’s keeping our troops safe.

Senator Dann was there when Trumbull County residents raised concerns about odors emanating from a nearby landfill. He forced the state to act and then introduced legislation that will safeguard our environment by placing a moratorium on new construction debris landfills.

He’s fought hard for working families by introducing legislation that will make sure more workers in our state receive the help they need in these tough economic times. His bills will extend unemployment benefits to more workers, provide retraining assistance to displaced workers, and protect good-paying construction jobs by making it illegal to use prison labor on public projects.

During the 2006-2007 State of Ohio $50 billion dollar biennium budget debate, Senator Dann co-authored “Making Ohio Great Again,” an alternative budget and tax plan. The plan would have created thousands of new jobs, rebuilt Ohio’s economy, invested in higher education and Ohio’s workforce, reduced government, and eliminated job killing taxes. The innovative plan was described by the Beacon Journal as “bold” and the Republican plan as lacking the vision and ambition of “Making Ohio Great Again.”

A former member of the Liberty Board of Education, he’s waded into the battle to fix Ohio’s broken school funding system, to make college more affordable for kids and adults, and to protect local school districts from state funding cuts that would lead to teacher firings and larger class sizes.

His work on behalf of families and seniors includes opposing the privatization of Social Security and recognizing that grandparents, who are often the primary caregivers for children in our society, need and deserve support from the state.

In short, Senator Dann is a reliable and active advocate for the people of Ohio. That advocacy is borne of his devotion to his own family, which includes his spouse, noted investigative journalist Alyssa Lenhoff, son Charlie, and daughters Mavelia and Jessie.

A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Senator Marc Dann is a 1984 graduate of the University of Michigan, where he earned a Bachelors degree in History. He graduated from the and in 1987, Case Western Reserve University School of Law in 1987 and, after devoting the initial stages of his career to public service, entered private practice in Youngstown, Ohio in 1991. Today he continues to practice law in the Mahoning Valley and maintains an office in Liberty Township.

To State Senator Marc Dann:

Sir: We are with you on the investigation of anyone who is misdirecting State funds or has knowledge of anyone doing this. It's good to know there are sincere and honest people in our State and Federal Government. Thank you.

When we join together and withhold our purchases from some targeted Republican contributors we can wield power that will force the executives of these Republican contributors to go to the Republican party do our agenda.
Now, the agenda written below does not address everything but you can choose a big company that gives aid and comfort to the Republican Party and demand that their executives get the Republican Party to do what you want. You can excercise this power every day and you can get other people to join and exercise this power every day. What company executive would want thousands of people demanding a set of progressive agenda, every day with a legal threat of losing your business? Join me and I promise you a peaceful revolution. No need to go out in the streets, no need for first amendment zones, no arrests. You create a no buy zone for some selected Republican contributors such as Walmart, etc. Join me, please.

A political message from the Revolution for progressive legislation.

Here's how we force congress to pass a progressive agenda. Companies do not like boycotts. I suggest you email these demands to Walmart, Wendy's, Outback Steakhouse, Olive Garden, Red Lobster, Curves for Women health clubs, each big Republican contributors. Also include Eckerd, CVS, and Walgreens Pharmacy chains. You can send this to other companies as well.

Send this email to your friends and to others on political mailing lists. Thank you.

Send this text in email or fax to a company you can afford to boycott which either heavily supports Republicans or should know better that we need progressive legislative change.

We demand that your company executives get the Republican Party to hold a press conference and accede to these demands and then finally legislate and sign these into law. Until such a press conference happens and the legislation gets passed I will boycott your products.

We demand that the Republican party end their aggressive and hateful action to end a woman's right to choose abortion or not.

We demand the resignation of Tom Delay.

We demand that the United States withdraw from Iraq.

We demand that the Congress of the United states and the president of the United States enact a law to increase the minimum wage to TEN dollars an hour and also to extend unemployment benefits for all people whose unemployment benefits expired after 6 months even though they still seek work.

We also demand that the Congress of the United States to not privatize social security benefits in any form including taking a percentage of the social security tax and placing it in private accounts. People can already create their own pensions with money after taxes in the private sector.

We also demand that the congress make all of a person's earned income taxable for social security FICA tax purposes and remove the 88,000 dollar salary cap. This will make social security solvent for many years to come.

We demand the congress increase the payroll tax in order to make social security solvent as well.

We also demand congress and the president enact a prescription drug benefit under Medicare Part B which covers 80 percent of medication cost, with no extra premium, no extra deductibles, no means test and no coverage gaps, and no penalties for signing up in a succeeding year..

We also call for the complete repeal of the faulty Medicare law HR 1 / S 1 passed by congress in Nov 2003.

We also demand vote by mail throughout the United States of America. This will prevent Republicans from vote suppression by skin color which happened electronicly and in person in the 2000 and 2004 elections. Demand that your state implement vote by mail with ballots easy to fill out and difficult to change or invalidate by Republican Party officials.

We demand Civil servants on every state payroll should keep track of voter registrations and vote counting of mail in votes in each precinct and not companies such as Choicepoint. We need to take the Republican Party out of the business of keeping track of voter registration and counting votes.

We demand States ban the secretary of state from engaging in politics especially acting as a campaign official for a presidential campaign.

______________________________________________________________________________

We do this in the spirit of peaceful resistance to a congress that refuses to enact this legislation

If you don't support what the Republicans did since they took over the House of Representatives in 1995 and don't support the Republican party's plans for this year then Join the revolution for progressive legislation and sign the petition at

Yes his name's really Peter O'Toole but Bush appeared the one Lying in Winter about the Iraq war.

I have a plan to stop the nomination of John Roberts to the Supreme Court.

Of course it will only succeed if you do this and get every person that you can find to do this.

Call, email Curves for Women health Clubs corporate Headquarters. The CEO gives quite a bit of money to the Republican Party and the antiabortion movement.
When you call them and or email them, tell them you or your girlfriend or wife will not patronize their health clubs until the CEO gets George W Bush to hold a press conference announcing the withdrawal the nomination of John Roberts and replace the nominee with a moderate or liberal for the Supreme Court.

CEO David Brandon, a hardcore Republican plans to run for Senate in Michigan against Senator Debbie Stabenow. What better way to make Brandon pay more attention to his company and not run for Senate if thousands of people call his company telling him to get the President to withdraw the nomination of Roberts or face a withering boycott.
