Ada Parents for Reason and Common Sense group's new name reflects broadening base of support
Posted by Fred Steiner on Friday, July 3, 2020
During an online meeting of its steering team held earlier this week, “Ada Parents for Reason and Common Sense” decided to change its name to “Ada SAFE 2020.”
This decision was made to reflect the broadening base of support for the movement to encourage responsible mask use when schools open in the fall, and to create a more cohesive and unifying message for the group.

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine today provided the following updates on Ohio's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
HOSPITALIZATIONS:
Last week was the first week of increasing COVID-19 hospital utilization in Ohio after over two months of decreasing utilization since late April. From June 21, 2020, to June 27, 2020, Ohio had approximately 500 to 550 total COVID-19 patients in hospitals statewide. This week, there are approximately 650 COVID-19 patients in hospitals statewide.
Ohio will become a one license plate state effective July 1.
The Ohio Department of Public Safety announced that a front license plate will no longer be required after July 1 for most Ohio vehicles.
The decision to do away with the front license plate was part of a compromise deal reached by lawmakers in April 2019.
The change fell under House Bill 62, which requires only one license plate to be displayed on most motor vehicles, including passenger vehicles.
The license plate must be displayed on the rear of the vehicle. However, commercial tractors must display the license plate on the front of the motor vehicle.
