SUMMARY:City Club's Final Free Outdoor Forum of the Season Looks at How Thi
 ngs Work in the Statehouse
DESCRIPTION:\nWed 7/29 @ 11:45AM-1PM\nThis week\, the City Club wraps up it
 s July series of free outdoor forums called “We The People\,” taking p
 lace on the Playhouse Square Plaza across from its office.\nIt closes with
  a forum devoted to “How Things Really Get Done at the Ohio Statehouse\,
 ” or maybe it should be how they don’t get done. Many Ohioans are pret
 ty angry right now with a legislature that takes back promised funding for
  public schools while devoting an insane amount of time to figuring out ne
 w ways to persecute transgender kids. It’s a legislature that was only r
 ecently embroiled in the $61 million First Energy scandal\, possibly the b
 iggest instance of corruption in modern Ohio history\, with hints of other
  scandals in the offing.\nYes\, tell us how that all happened and let us k
 now what we\, the citizens\, can do to make consistently opaque\, unproduc
 tive and uncaring government more responsive to the non-wealthy.\nPanelist
 s include Greg Lawson\, a research fellow at the Buckeye Institute\,\; Rac
 hel Coyle\, founder of State Action Initiative\, LLC and co-founder of How
  Things Work at the Statehouse\; Marty McGann\, founder of McGann Partners
 . Gina Wilt\, advocacy director of COOHIO moderates.\nWelcome starts at 11
 :45am\, with the forum opening at noon.\nwe-the-people-how-things-really-g
