COLUMBUS – State Rep. Juanita O. Brent (D-Cleveland) today announced the Cleveland Stonewall Democrats have named her as the Democrat Leader of the Year for her working supporting the LGTBQ# community.
“I am humbled to be honored with this prestigious award. Fighting for basic human rights is something we all know needs to be done,” said Rep. Brent. “Being an ally is an action verb. Every action I take is in hopes of bringing equity. Equity looks like some of the bills I introduced: HB 225 (Designate June as Pride Month in Ohio), HB 115 (Ohio Equal Pay), HB 178 (CROWN Act), and HB 190 (Black Maternal Health Week).”
