Doctor, advocate, girl from Y-Town. Running for Governor to fight for Ohioans who are struggling and give power back to the people. It’s time for a change.
It is a true honor to receive the endorsement of Ohio AFL-CIO, a federation of over 500,000 working people in all 88 counties in our great state. I will always be a pro-labor, pro-union governor.

Vivek Ramaswamy doesn’t understand the stakes Ohioans are facing, and he never will.

This isn’t a matter of cutting back at the grocery store or pinching pennies; it’s catastrophic.

Acton: Ramaswamy sees Ohio from window of private jet. He doesn't get what you need.
Amy Acton: Vivek Ramaswamy is completely out of touch with the lives of everyday Ohioans. Medicaid and Medicare shouldn't be put in his hands.

Thank you Jefferson County! As governor, no community will be overlooked by me.

I was proud to stand on the picket line with the United Steelworkers Local 700T during their fight for fair pay, better healthcare, and worker protections, and I'm glad to see they've reached an agreement with Libbey Glass.

As governor, I'll always put workers first.

Three years ago today, the East Palestine train derailment upended a community, and EP residents are still facing the health impacts today.

Petitions turned in and ready to win in November.

Thank you to the thousands of Ohioans who signed @davidpepperoh.bsky.social ‘s and my petitions, and to the volunteers who helped us circulate!

This is what people-powered looks like.

This is another example of how Vivek Ramaswamy and his allies are making your life worse.

Ohio is taking taxpayer dollars from hardworking Ohioans and using them to fund for-profit charter schools.

Ohio Ethics Commission kills charter school disclosure rule after political pressure
The Ohio Ethics Commission voted to indefinitely set aside a rule that would have required officials overseeing $1.6 billion in charter school funding to report income sources and investments.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the victims and survivors and confront the devastating cost of hatred. Remembrance carries responsibility: to speak out against antisemitism in all its forms.

As this winter storm moves through Ohio, stay safe and continue to look out for your neighbor. Extending a huge thank you to our road crews who are working around the clock to help keep us safe!

What we are witnessing in Minnesota is not normal or okay.

Law enforcement should be keeping people safe by going after dangerous criminals, not by terrorizing communities.

The people of Minnesota deserve a full and transparent investigation, safe streets, and basic human dignity.

No matter what our corrupt Statehouse or Vivek Ramaswamy says — you deserve affordable healthcare. It shouldn't be this hard.

Ohio’s young people deserve a candidate who is fighting for a future where they can get ahead.

That’s why I’m fighting to invest in our public education, prioritize workforce development, and lower costs so all Ohioans can thrive. Thrilled to be with you all!

Honored to receive the endorsement of some of the toughest men and women in Ohio: the United Mineworkers of America.

Happy MLK Day, Ohio! Eric and I were thrilled to be at St. Paul AME Church followed by a march to the historic Lincoln Theatre.

Dr. King’s selflessness, fierce belief in justice, and commitment to fighting for a world where we can all thrive has served as a guiding light throughout my career.

Dr. King dedicated his life to public service and to fighting to build a more just future for all Americans.

It’s an honor to be at the 41st annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday Breakfast in Columbus.

Ohio invented public schools. We need to honor our constitutional commitment to fully fund them.

Hard working Ohioans know what really happened here. The people of Chillicothe deserve better than Vivek Ramaswamy celebrating the loss of 800 Ohio jobs and and all of the hardship and uncertainty that hit this community.

I spent the past five years exposing how corrupt the Ohio legislature is, and how everyday Ohioans pay the price.

Vivek Ramaswamy picked one of its leaders to be his running mate. The architect of the $600M stadium raid of Ohioans’ private funds.

Says it all. #statusquo

@davidpepperoh.bsky.social and I sat down today for an informative roundtable with business owners and members of the community to discuss the affordability crisis we’re facing in Ohio. (1/2)

I'm proud to announce @davidpepperoh.bsky.social as my running mate! Together, we share a lifelong commitment to public service, and I'm thrilled to have him by my side in the fight to lower costs, tackle corruption, and ensure that every Ohioan can thrive. Let’s do this.

The cost of routine healthcare appointments has gone up. Rent, groceries, and utilities have gone up. But take-home pay for working Ohioans? Flat. (1/2)
