Ohio Gun Owners Election Alert

Tom Young on your gun rights

Not only that. On Sunday, October 18, I showed you how Young voted on June 10, 2026 against the Freedom to Carry Act.

See Young's grade in the Ohio Gun Owners ballot guide

The goal of the Freedom to Carry Act was simple: let law-abiding Ohioans carry the legal firearm they choose, not just a handgun. Under it, Ohio's concealed handgun license would have become a concealed weapons license, and anyone allowed to carry concealed, with or without a license, could carry any gun Ohio and federal law allow them to have, starting at age 18 instead of 21. And it would have let you keep a loaded firearm, including a rifle or shotgun, in your vehicle, and taken suppressors and short barreled rifles and shotguns off Ohio's dangerous ordnance list.

Here's another part of the record:

In December 2024, Young voted against the Second Amendment Preservation Act.

The goal of the Second Amendment Preservation Act was simple: keep Ohio from helping Washington go after law-abiding gun owners. Under it, no state or local official in Ohio could enforce, or help enforce, federal rules on firearms, firearm accessories or ammunition. And it had real teeth: a $25,000 penalty for each violation, plus the right for you to take the offending government agency to court, so a protection on paper would be one in practice.

In November 2021, Young voted against the full constitutional carry amendment that would have let Ohioans carry any lawful weapon.

And get this: Representative Young is taking fat stacks of campaign cash from the gun control lobby.

Check the record before you vote on or before November 3.
