“Ohio needs leaders who will fight for working families and stand with President Trump’s America First agenda. That’s why I’m proud to endorse my dear friend Jay Edwards for Ohio Treasurer of State. Jay and I are both sons of Appalachia. We know what it’s like to come from places the elites ignore — and we know the strength, pride, and values that built Ohio. Jay has never forgotten where he came from, and he’s spent his career standing up for Southeast Ohio and putting hardworking people first. As Treasurer, Jay will safeguard Ohio’s finances, defend conservative principles, and make sure our state’s resources are working for the people — not special interests. If you want a strong America First conservative who will deliver results for all Ohioans, Jay Edwards is your guy. He has my full support.” - @JDVance @VP

Signed. Fraud isn't a victimless crime. It robs taxpayers and the seniors and families who rely on these programs. As Ohio Treasurer, I'll protect every dollar. Thank you @JDVance for leading the way. 🇺🇸 #StopFraud

Replying to @AndrewJTobias
At the Cincinnati / Hebron airport, Vance says he voted for Vivek Ramaswamy for governor, Jon Husted for U.S. Senate and Jay Edwards for state treasurer. “They're great people. They'll make great public servants.”

Out on the road every day meeting Ohioans. Last night one of them happened to be @BarstoolGruden. I asked for his snap count. He told me to get my phone out and hit record. A Dayton Flyer, and a legend. 🏈🔥 He hates the college clap! #Legend

Spent the last few days in Dallas for the RNC Midterm Convention, and Ohio was well represented. Good to see Vice President @JDVance and Senator @berniemoreno, both of whom understand that the people who build things and work hard in this country deserve a government that works as hard as they do. That’s the job I’m running for. Ohio’s Treasurer manages the state’s money, and it should be managed the way a family in Ohio manages theirs. Carefully, transparently, and with the next generation in mind. November 3. Let’s go win this thing. #Fighting4Ohio

Honored to speak at the @OhioYRs Conference last week in Akron. This is the biggest Young Republican organization in the country! The added bonus was meeting @NickAdamsinUSA, Special Presidential Envoy for American Tourism, Exceptionalism, and Values. He gave a great speech! #Fighting4Ohio

Last night I was proud to stand with the hardworking men and women of Laborers' Local 534, IAM Local 1943, the Steelworkers, and the International Union of Operating Engineers, Local 18 at the Ohio EPA hearing in Middletown. I spoke in support of Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. and the modernization of the No. 3 blast furnace at Middletown Works. This project means good-paying jobs, a stronger local economy, and a future for American steelmaking right here in Ohio. When our workers and our industries succeed, Ohio succeeds. I’ll always show up and fight for the people who build this state. #Fighting4Ohio

BREAKING: Vice President JD Vance casts his ballot in the Ohio primaries, cracking a joke to the press as he drops it in the box. "I have to hide it from the reporters. I don't want them to know who I voted for."

This is just scratching the surface of the theft and fraud happening in our state. Columbus has given hundreds of millions of medicaid tax dollars to these “home health care” LLCs owned by Somalis getting rich off the taxpayers. Arrest these criminals. dailywire.com/news/medicaid-…

I grew up in a family of small business owners. From a young age, I learned the value of hard work and putting people first: values that still guide me every day. Tomorrow is Election Day, and I’d be deeply honored to earn your vote for Ohio Treasurer. Together, let’s deliver a strong win for Ohio and for Vice President JD Vance!

I am officially endorsing Jay Edwards (@JayEdwardsOhio) for Treasurer of Ohio Jay Edwards is a native son of Southeast Ohio, born and raised in Nelsonville. He first ran for public office in 2016 at just 27 years old, inspired by President Trump and a desire to bring common-sense conservative leadership to Columbus. In a key victory, he flipped a Democrat-held seat and served in the Ohio House of Representatives until 2025, when he left due to term limits. During his time in the State House, Jay established himself as a serious fiscal conservative and effective policymaker. As Chair of the House Finance Committee, he played a leading role in shaping Ohio’s budget and advancing major reforms. He sponsored and helped pass a $3.2 billion tax cut for Ohioans and was a strong advocate for universal school choice, expanding educational opportunity for families across the state. Jay Edwards has shown he understands how to manage taxpayer dollars responsibly, reduce the burden on working families, and promote policies that strengthen Ohio’s economy. He brings real experience in budgeting, finance, and policy implementation at the highest levels of state government. For these reasons, Jay Edwards has my complete and total endorsement for Treasurer of Ohio.
