Unlike my opponent, I’m not afraid to say the word “union.”

I grew up in a union town, I live in a union household, and I will always have the backs of union workers. Ohio workers and the unions that represent them have been under constant attack in recent decades by anti-worker Republicans in Columbus. If Republicans retain their majorities in the legislature, our next governor’s veto pen could be the only thing preventing Ohio from becoming a right-to-work-for-less state, and the billionaires backing my opponent’s campaign are counting on it.

I will stand up for workers’ rights and union rights at every turn. From combating constant Senate Bill 5-style efforts to attack unions and collective bargaining rights, to taking on wage theft that costs workers billions of dollars, to keeping right-to-work out of Ohio, to expanding worker training and apprenticeship programs in the state, I will be a steadfast pro-union, pro-worker Governor.
