Vivek Ramaswamy

2026 Dirty Dozen in the States

Ohio Governor

Nominated by Conservation Ohio

Vivek Ramaswamy is an out of touch billionaire gubernatorial candidate in Ohio, who has called climate change a hoax, moved his own company out of Ohio, and peddled extreme conspiracy theories. He is a vocal opponent of clean energy and has proposed solutions to the energy cost crisis including producing more polluting coal, natural gas, and fracking in Ohio. With millions of dollars invested in data centers, a Ramaswamy governorship would mean more unchecked data center development in the state to line his own pockets, leading to even higher energy costs for Ohioans.
