VOTE ALERT: Jon Husted Prioritizes Endless Foreign Conflicts Over Lowering Costs for Ohioans

Husted backs prolonged war in the Middle East, has no solutions to cost of living crisis in Ohio

COLUMBUS, OHIO - Today, Jon Husted voted in support of the Administration's military actions in Iran, backing an expensive foreign intervention in the Middle East that risks American lives and has no end in sight.

Meanwhile, Husted has no solutions for Ohioans struggling with skyrocketing health care premiums, grocery bills, and utility costs. Instead, he has dismissed the mounting affordability crisis by telling Ohioans to "fix their work ethic" and to simply "earn more" money.

Ohio Democratic Party Senior Communications Advisor Tony Wen released the following statement:

"Ohioans are struggling to afford everything from health care to groceries to utility bills, but Jon Husted would put money towards risking American lives overseas in another forever war in the Middle East. Ohio families need a Senator focused on making their lives more affordable - not enabling an expensive and unnecessary foreign war."
