 * BANNING COPAY ACCUMULATORS IN OHIO WILL BRING FAIRNESS AND LOWER PRESCRIPTION
   DRUG COSTS: TERRENCE UPCHURCH
   
   More than 16 states, including neighboring Kentucky and West Virginia, have
   passed bills to ban copay accumulators. Now it is time to stand up for Ohio
   families and pass much-needed legislation through the Ohio House and Senate
   once and for all, and help lower the ever-increasing prescription drug and
   treatment costs for Ohioans struggling to get by, writes state Rep. Terrence
   Upchurch, a Cleveland Democrat who represents the 20th Ohio House District,
   in a guest column today.

 * ELIMINATING TERM LIMITS WOULD BE A START, BUT MORE NEEDED TO CUT
   SPECIAL-INTEREST LOCK ON LAWMAKERS
   
   Most importantly, require public disclosure within 72 hours of lobbying
   contributions, both for the donor and recipient -- an in-and-out system that
   will help in very rapidly understand lobbying activities. A more intense
   media focus on Columbus is the final need, writes an international executive
   in Gates Mills in a letter to the editor.

 * IN YOUR ARTICLES GLORIFYING THE RV LIFE, WHERE’S DISCUSSION OF THEIR LOW GAS
   MILEAGE?
   
   I’m surprised cleveland.com appears to be promoting vehicles that can
   average, for the largest RVs, around six to eight miles a gallon, writes Tom
   Carlson of Perry in a letter to the editor.

 * EDITORIAL BOARD ON TARGET IN CALLING FOR END TO OHIO GENERAL ASSEMBLY TERM
   LIMITS
   
   The editorial board of The Plain Dealer and cleveland.com is right on target
   in calling for Ohio's legislative term limits to end -- for all the reasons
   its editorial provides. Term limits also should be eliminated because they
   restrict the freedom of choice of voters, writes Vic Presutti of Dayton in a
   letter to the editor.

 * EUGENE ROBINSON’S COLUMN NAILED SORRY STATE OF THE GOP AND ITS PRESIDENTIAL
   CONTENDERS
   
   Columnist Eugene Robinson excellently summarized the woeful condition of the
   Republican Party, and its presidential slate of Trumpian lapdogs, writes
   Raymond Brockman of Lyndhurst in a letter to the editor.

 * WHY IS THE CATHOLIC CHURCH SUPPORTING PROTECT WOMEN OHIO AND ITS MISLEADING
   CLAIMS?
   
   In backing Protect Women Ohio and its misleading campaign against the
   November abortion-rights amendment what message is the Catholic Church
   sending? That it’s OK to lie to advance a righteous cause? That stopping
   abortion is more important than being truthful?, asks a North Royalton
   attorney in a letter to the editor.

 * RAMASWAMY DANGEROUSLY SEEKS TO AMP UP RACIALLY INFLAMMATORY RIGHT-WING
   TACTICS
   
   Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is not going to sway many Black
   voters, but that was not his intent in calling two well-known nonviolent
   progressives "modern grand wizards of the modern KKK." He was one-upping his
   GOP opponents by throwing more red meat to the Donald Trump mob to address
   their racial grievances, writes George Magakis of Norristown, Pennsylvania,
   in a letter to the editor.

 * CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS SHOULD BE BASED SOLELY ON POPULATION, NOT POLITICS
   
   Nowhere in the U. S. Constitution does it say that congressional “districts
   reflect proportional party representation,” writes Debra R. Harwood of Huron
   in a letter to the editor.

 * UNLOCKING THE POTENTIAL OF FIRST-GENERATION COLLEGE STUDENTS: DR. TIMEKA
   RASHID
   
   While support for first-generation students can be seen as an act of social
   justice in service of educational equity, it is also an investment in our
   collective future, writes guest columnist Dr. Timeka Rashid.
   
   Guest columnist, cleveland.com


 * COEXISTING WITH YOUR WILD NEIGHBORS: LAURA DORR
   
   Wildlife can seem like a nuisance when they reside in your yard, writes guest
   columnist Laura Dorr, wildlife specialist at the Lake Erie Nature & Science
   Center.
   
   Guest columnist, cleveland.com
   


 * TRUMP MUG SHOT & JORDAN: DARCY CARTOON
   
   For the past several years Donald Trump mug shot memes have been posted all
   over the internet, now there's an authentic Trump mug shot, first posted by
   Georgia's Fulton County Jail, next to be posted on Mount Rushmore for Jim
   Jordan to sculpt Trump's portrait next to 'Honest Abe' Lincoln.
