I've been a Youngstown steelworker my entire life.

This is a tough place and makes tough people.

Amy Acton, she is one of us.

She grew up poor and sometimes homeless, but worked her way through college and med school.

She knows what folks here are going through because she's lived it.

As governor, I know she'll work to get costs down for working families and go after anyone ripping off Ohio.

She's Youngstown tough, and that's the best compliment I can give.
