With the recent changes enacted by the Ohio General Assembly and Auditor of State guidance, public entities, and employees must be more vigilant than ever to avoid using public resources in levy campaigns. Additionally, supporters of levy campaigns may be asking how best to support a local levy issue to ensure its approval during an election. Volunteers and supporters of the levy campaign could – and probably should – consider creating a political action committee (PAC), which, under Ohio campaign finance law, election law, and Auditor of State guidelines regulating the use of public funds, is the most appropriate and widely used entity for levy committee communications.
