A Doctor, Not a Politician

Dr. Amy Acton for Ohio Governor

She stepped up when Ohio needed her most. Now she's ready to fight for your family.

Amy isn't your typical politician. She's a doctor who grew up poor in Youngstown, sleeping on friends' couches and wondering where her next meal would come from. When COVID hit, she didn't play politics—she saved lives. Now she's running for governor because she knows what it's like to struggle, and she's tired of watching politicians ignore real problems.

Why Amy Gets It

Because she's been where you are

👩‍⚕️

She's Lived the Struggle

Amy moved 18 times before turning 12. She knows what it's like to worry about having a roof over your head or enough food on the table. That's not something you forget when you're in the governor's office.

She Gets Things Done

When the pandemic hit, Amy didn't hide behind poll numbers. She followed the science, made tough decisions, and helped save thousands of lives. While other politicians worried about their careers, Amy worried about your family.

💪

She Won't Back Down

When angry protesters showed up at her house screaming at her family, Amy didn't cave. She kept doing what was right, even when it was hard. That's the kind of backbone we need fighting for Ohio families.

She Believes in Second Chances

Public schools and caring teachers saved Amy's life. She knows that every kid deserves a shot at a better future, no matter what their zip code looks like or how much money their parents make.

Fighting for What Actually Matters

Amy's not here to fight culture wars or score political points. She's focused on the kitchen table issues that keep you up at night—like paying for medicine, making sure your kids get a good education, and finding a job that actually pays the bills.

Read Amy's Full Story

"I remember what it felt like to be invisible, to have adults look right through me like I didn't matter. That's why I'll never turn my back on a kid who needs help, or a family that's struggling."
