Nearly 1,000 public workers gathered in Strongsville and more than 400 met in Akron Tuesday to protest Senate Bill 5, which would limit the collective bargaining rights of thousands in Ohio. The bill has passed the state Senate, and hearings continue in the House of Representatives this week. Browse the gallery above to see photos from both rallies.
