“This is my heart, my home. I work for the people of Ohio, and I love my bosses. From the time I get up in the morning until I go to bed at night, I’m thinking about them and our future.”

I will not falter, and I will not fail.” A principled conservative and a strong advocate for Ohio’s families, businesses, and taxpayers, Yost has gained a national reputation as an America First attorney general, supporting President Trump’s agenda at the state level. He has devoted his career to protecting individual liberties, fighting against partisan lawfare and creating a stable environment for economic growth...

As Ohio Attorney General, Yost protected Ohioans’ Second Amendment rights and fought in court against the Biden administration’s open-border policies. He succeeded in winning legal battles against federal overreach and won a U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down the Biden administration’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for businesses.

Yost’s pioneering case against a major energy corporation for its role in a public corruption scandal saved Ohio taxpayers more than a billion dollars, reinforcing his commitment to transparent and responsible governance. He has defended policies that protect girls’ sports and shield minors from irreversible gender transition surgeries, safeguarding Ohio’s future generations.
