Issue 1 Event

Retro Soul is a Columbus-based, Black-owned business that offers unique vintage finds. Ohio Women’s Alliance collaborated with Retro Soul to host a pop-up shop where we featured Morgan Harper speaking on the importance of voting this election season and Kayla Merchant shared about Issue 1. Columbus voters have an opportunity to choose 100 percent clean, local renewable energy by voting YES on Issue 1. The ballot measure allows residents and small commercial customers to come together to purchase electricity as a group and clean up their power supply by using local renewable energy resources without raising electric bills. 

More than 40 people came out to shop, register to vote, and be together in community. Check out Morgan Harper’s new organization, Stand Up Columbus! You can earn more about Issue 1 here!
