Environment / Energy Ohio has ample natural resources and industry expertise to unlock cheap, clean energy for Ohioans, and support robust job growth in the process. As governor, everything from oil and natural gas to nuclear will be on the table. Criminal Justice / Public Safety As governor, I will hold DAs and judges accountable and ensure our legal system protects the law-abiding, not the destructive. We can not have our own Iryna Zarutska. Wages / Job Benefits As governor, I will expand support for homegrown talent and ensure Ohio innovators have the tools to succeed. Housing We must keep international conglomerates out of our neighborhoods to protect American buyers, and aggressively enhance mass deportations and limits on programs like H1B that flood the market with foreign buyers. The American housing market is for Americans. Not foreigners. Not corporations. Criminal Justice / Public Safety As governor, I will build experienced task forces to dismantle trafficking networks and protect the most vulnerable. In addition, I will ensure that the likes of human traffickers, child rapists, and more are eligible for the death penalty, as to provide the ultimate deterrent. Legislation As governor, I will champion right to repair legislation to put full ownership back into the hands of the consumer. Wages / Job Benefits As governor, I will crack down on H1B abuse, hold corporations and agencies accountable, and ensure Ohio’s homegrown talent gets the jobs and opportunities they’ve long been denied. Environment / Energy Ohio will lead the nation in responsible AI, capturing its full economic and societal benefits while proactively protecting our residents from its risks. We will not surrender our future to Big Tech; instead, we will set the standard for ethical, resident-first AI governance that keeps Ohio safe, prosperous, and ahead of the curve. Criminal Justice / Public Safety We will overhaul prisons with tough, commonsense reforms. Immigration As governor, I will enforce the law aggressively, crack down on leftist obstruction, hold employers accountable for hiring illegal labor, and work with the federal government to restore order in areas overwhelmed by the Biden Administration’s migrant policies. Criminal Justice / Public Safety As governor, I will strengthen current laws to ensure lawfare can’t be used as a tool of intimidation to silence dissent.
