Who Should Stand For Ohio?
In our U.S. Capital, Ohio is represented by two statues, James Garfield and William Allen. In 2006, legislation was enacted to create the National Statuary Collection Study Committee to replace Allen's statue for his anti-slavery views. The Committee will consider the public vote to be the greatest single factor in making its final recommendation to the full General Assembly. Have a voice. Read more about Legacy for Ohio. |
