Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The announcement is part of Amy Acton's campaign strategy to appeal to conservative voters in the Republican-leaning state of Ohio. This policy position is occurring as Vivek Ramaswamy's odds of winning the gubernatorial race against Acton have recently dipped. Donald Trump has previously backed Vivek Ramaswamy in the race.
