Ramaswamy Ad Sparks Controversy, Draws Criticism and Support
Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has taken responsibility for a campaign advertisement that featured the mother of Amy Acton, a former Ohio health director. The ad has drawn criticism, with some Republicans privately stating it has backfired. Acton herself told CNN she was "not stunned" by the ad. In response to the controversy, Illinois first lady MK Pritzker committed $500,000 to Acton. Ramaswamy stated he will spend millions to promote the ad.
