When asked about skyrocketing gas prices for Ohioans, Husted “declined to comment”
COLUMBUS, OHIO — This week, Jon Husted voted for the seventh time to support the Administration’s war in Iran, continuing to back the expensive foreign intervention in the Middle East that has sent costs skyrocketing for Ohioans.
Because of the Husted-backed war, Ohioans are being hit by soaring gas prices, and farmers are getting crushed by rising diesel and fertilizer costs, which will raise the price of groceries. Despite all this, Husted thinks the war is “good news for the global economy” and going “much better than anyone thought it would.”
Ohio Democratic Party Senior Communications Advisor Tony Wen released the following statement:
“Jon Husted has now had seven chances to stand up for Ohio families and farmers and fight to lower costs, but every time he has voted to support the endless war in the Middle East. Ohioans are getting crushed by higher gas and food prices, but all Jon Husted’s only answer is to send more money overseas while lecturing families to work harder and earn more money.”
The Husted-backed war in Iran is crushing Ohio families and farmers:
- Ohioans are being hit by soaring gas prices, and farmers are getting crushed by rising diesel and fertilizer costs, which will raise the price of groceries.
- Jon Husted has voted seven times to continue the war in Iran while costs continue to skyrocket.
- Jon Husted has claimed that he thinks the war is “good news for the global economy” and going “much better than anyone thought it would.”
- When asked about the pain that Ohio families are feeling at the pump, Jon Husted’s campaign “declined to comment.”
- Jon Husted continues to insult struggling Ohioans as “not very experienced at navigating the real world” and consistently dismisses the mounting affordability crisis by telling Ohioans to fix their “work ethic” and to simply “earn more” money to make ends meet.
