Iris Meltzer of the League of Women Voters of Kent was among the speakers at the Portage County NAACP and League of Women Voters’ Know Your Rights program in Ravenna. Meltzer spoke to Portage County residents about the group’s latest effort to end gerrymandering in Ohio. The March 21 event’s featured speaker, Steve Michniak of the Portage County Prosecutor’s Office, focused on two issues that have generated a lot of confusion in the community − the new adult cannabis law and individual gun rights. The program was held at the King Kennedy Community Center in Ravenna.
