COLUMBUS, Ohio —
More than 23 percent of registered voters in Montgomery County have signed a petition to repeal Senate Bill 5, the "We Are Ohio" campaign announced Thursday morning.
More than 42,000 people from Montgomery County signed the peition, which will put the issue on the November ballot.
A record 1.2 million signatures were turned in overall, with another 20,000 coming from Green and Clark counties.
Senate Bill 5 outlaws strikes by Ohios public employees, eliminates binding arbitration used by police and firefighters, wipes out automatic pay increases and requires workers to pay at least 15 percent of their health care costs and all of their pension contributions.
