Meanwhile, Ryan’s GOP opponent J.D. Vance appeared on Fox News yesterday and spoke with host Maria Bartiromo.

“Tim Ryan tries to be one thing in his TV commercials but his voting record just doesn’t back it up.”

“On the one hand he criticizes mildly Joe Biden’s debt forgiveness plan for college students.”

“On the other hand he voted for the exact same thing two years ago.”
