Washington, D.C. – This morning, JD Vance slammed Tim Ryan over his pledge to decriminalize the possession of all drugs while simultaneously pushing to label fentanyl a “weapon of mass destruction.”
Over the summer, Ryan made it known that he wants to label the deadly opioid fentanyl a “weapon of mass destruction.” However, he signed an American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) pledge to decriminalize “all drug possession.”
“If Tim Ryan wants someone’s vote, he will tell them whatever they want to hear,” Vance told Fox News Digital in an exclusive quote. “The fact that he would pledge to decriminalize the deadly fentanyl flooding our streets is a slap in the face to every family in Ohio that has faced this poison head-on.”
“Tim has had 20 years in Congress to deal with the fentanyl epidemic, but he’s been too busy climbing the political ladder to do anything about it. It’s time for new leadership and real solutions,” Vance added.
Not to mention, he has taken campaign donations – $27,000 – over the years from “drug companies in the opioid crisis.”
Tim Ryan has never been on the right side of the fentanyl crisis.
