The Blue 22

"Made a Deal with the Devil"

Who are the Blue 22?

Hello

The Blue 22 are the twenty-two Republicans who betrayed voters by joining 32 Democrats to elect "moderate" Speaker of the House Jason Stephens. The Republican caucus had voted Derek Merrin Speaker of the House a month prior, but behind closed doors Jason Stephens cut a backroom deal with Democrat leadership. In return for their Democrat support, Stephens would kill pro-life legislation, school choice legislation, and hand the Democrats more seats in redistricting. It was the WORST DEAL in the history of Ohio politics and a dark day for Republicans. The Blue 22 are:
