Ohio's Grassroots Victory: A Step Towards Police Accountability

In this episode of Good News for Lefties, host Beowulf Rochlen highlights remarkable strides in social justice and labor rights across the nation. Tune in as we celebrate a grassroots movement in Ohio making waves to end qualified immunity, empowering victims of police misconduct to seek justice. Hear the inspiring stories of rideshare drivers in Oregon advocating for Senate Bill 1166, which seeks fair compensation and job security against corporate exploitation. We also discuss a significant court ruling in North Carolina that protects the integrity of the electoral process by invalidating a partisan law aimed at shifting control of the election board. Plus, learn about the ongoing transition from coal to renewable energy in Colorado, defying the Trump administration's push for coal revival. Finally, we delve into New Jersey's stand against the Trump administration's directive on diversity, equity, and inclusion in schools, reinforcing a commitment to inclusive education. This episode is a powerful reminder of the progress being made in the fight for justice and equality.
