The footage shows Ramaswamy at an outdoor podium under a tent, answering a question about his first 100 days. In the clip, he says there are “several things we can quickly score wins on,” starting with putting Ohio “on the path to the biggest property tax relief package we have ever seen in the history of our state,” adding that those taxes “have gotten insanely high” and that he would “bring it down” and “focus on that right out the gate.”
He also says he would “start immediately on deputizing the prosecution of Medicaid waste, fraud and abuse,” which he estimates could free “probably $4 to $5 billion we can appropriate back to our state,” and that he wants “economic development wins… on our terms that lift the quality of life.”…
