Ohio U.S. Senate candidate J.D. Vance spent nearly half of its donations to pay for a survey — and a Vance political adviser to be executive director. The nonprofit did little to fight opioid abuse.
U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan’s campaign made the attack in a 30-second"When J.D. Vance moved back to Ohio, he told us his new nonprofit would help fix our state’s opioid crisis, but he failed to fund a single addiction program," the ad’s narrator says."So, what did Vance do with the money? He funneled tens of thousands to his top political adviser and paid tens of thousands for political polling. An independent expert called the nonprofit a charade.

Vance, is facing backlash following the surfacing of comments he made that reportedly urge women to stay in 'violent' marriages.
