Our Constitutional Republic is dependent on an independent and trustworthy Judiciary to maintain an effective balance of power with the Executive and Legislative branches. With pressures and threats to the safety of judges at the state and federal level at an all-time high, retired Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Maureen O’Connor (R) and former Justice Mike Donnelly (D) have teamed up in a bipartisan effort to speak up for the judicial system and the fundamental importance of the Rule of Law that underpins it. The Justices will also discuss what everyday Americans can do to support the Rule of Law in their communities.

Join us at the City Club for a conversation, moderated by Sound of Ideas host Stephanie Haney, that will focus on the efforts of the Justices to organize judges and lawyers from across Ohio to fully live out their oaths to the Constitution and the practice of law during these turbulent times.
