Jerrad Christian for Congress | Ohio’s 12th Congressional District

In this episode of The Vlogging Pod, Eri Nelson sits down with Jerrad Christian, Democratic candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Ohio’s 12th Congressional District.

Christian, a Navy veteran, software engineer, former meteorologist and oceanographer, small-business owner, and lifelong Ohioan, discusses his decision to leave the Republican Party and what ultimately led him to run for Congress.

The conversation covers universal healthcare, labor protections, corporate influence in government, Ohio’s housing and property-tax challenges, AI and data-center regulation, reproductive rights, immigration and ICE, government surveillance and Flock cameras, data privacy, foreign policy, money in politics, Citizens United, term limits, and the challenge of reaching voters across party lines.

Christian also discusses his belief that government should work for people rather than corporations and why he believes conversations centered on shared interests can bridge some of the country’s political divisions.
