Mike Turner Doubles Down on Support for Iran War as Southwest Ohioans Face Skyrocketing Gas Prices

Mike Turner is relishing in raising costs on hardworking Southwest Ohioans.

At a Politico discussion yesterday, Turner “defended President Trump’s handling of the ongoing conflict with Iran” – the same conflict that has caused Ohio gas prices to surge more than 35%, with Ohioans now paying over $4.60 per gallon on average.

While Turner continues to bend the knee to his party bosses, Ohio families are facing the consequences. On top of pain at the pump and prices rising on everyday goods, Turner and Trump’s reckless war of choice in Iran has taken the lives of three service members from Ohio.

How much more pain do Ohioans need to endure for Turner to stand up against Trump’s reckless war?

DCCC Spokesperson Riya Vashi:
“Mike Turner has no shame in publicly announcing that he doesn’t care about Southwest Ohioans. Because of the Turner-backed war in Iran, hardworking families are being bogged down at the gas pump and Ohio service members have tragically lost their lives. Turner’s actions are beyond reckless, and it will cost him his seat in November.”
