🚨The Ohio GOP and National R's are going to throw everything they've got at Sen. Sherrod Brown, Ohio's only statewide elected Democrat.

This is a MUST-HOLD SEAT for Dems to maintain control of the U.S. Senate in '24.

Let's meet some of his possible opposition:
*RT + Share!* 🧵
Only 1 Republican has officially entered the race. 2-term State Senator Matt Dolan announced his campaign mid-january.

He came third in a bid (ultimately won by J.D. Vance) for last year's U.S. Senate race. By speaking out against Trump, Dolan carved a moderate lane for himself.
Don't get your hopes up though -- Dolan has one plan and one plan only for this race. He (and his family, who own the MLB's Cleveland Guardians) will use their personal fortune to buy this seat from Ohio voters.

WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER MILLIONAIRE IN THE U.S. SENATE!

GOP ABORTION LANGUAGE SCRUB: Blake Masters removed language that said, "I am 100% pro-life.” House candidates Tom Barrett of Michigan, Christian Castelli in North Carolina and Barbara Kirkmeyer in Colorado removed similar language from their websites. axios.com/2022/08/31/rep…
Minnesota's GOP nominee for governor, Scott Jensen, removed a line saying he "believes in the sanctity of human life, from conception to natural death." In Oregon, GOP gubernatorial candidate Christine Drazan scrubbed her website's issues page, removing pro-life bonafides.
Gov. Mike DeWine scrubbed his campaign website of references to the law he signed imposing a ban on abortion at six weeks into a pregnancy, and won’t say if he supports Ohio Republican lawmakers’ plans to consider banning abortion completely. #ohleg cleveland.com/news/2022/09/j…

If Candice Keller blaming trans-folks for the shooting wasn't bad enough, here's State Rep (and also candidate for Ohio Senate) John Becker posting a meme branded with a 3-percenter militia logo that blames shootings on a lack of school prayer & spanking, we think.

John Becker, parenting expert
John Becker, who thinks lack of school prayer leads to mass shootings, recently suggested he needed a gun because women were mad about a bill he introduced to ban birth control #OHGOP

Stand by! We’ll be live-tweeting coverage of the #OHLeg House Health Committee, and the first hearing of HB 68, a bill that would ban all abortions (without exception) after a fetal heartbeat is detected - commonly known as the #HeartbeatBill
Rep. Ron Hood opens up the hearing with sponsor testimony, noting that the Ohio House GOP has repeatedly tried and failed to pass the #HeartbeatBill into law.
Ranking member @Boyd4OH_D9 asks the #HeartbeatBill sponsors why they have prioritized this abortion ban over other family-focused policies - like paid family leave, mental health and postpartum care, domestic violence protections, and early childhood education.
