Matt Dolan in 2024 OH Senate race
On Abortion:
As a Catholic, protecting sanctity of human life is personal
As a father and a Catholic, protecting the sanctity of human life and standing up for the most vulnerable members in our society isn't just commonsense policy, it's personal. Many candidates claim to be pro-life, but
I have the record to prove it. In the U.S. Senate, I will fight to uphold the Hyde Amendment and use the full power of my platform and office to protect the unborn.

On Education:
Expand school choice; stop the creep of Critical Race Theory
I am the only candidate for U.S. Senate that has a proven record of expanding school choice and standing firmly against the creep of Critical Race Theory into Ohio classrooms. If we empower students and parents,
instead of unions and special interests, education will flourish in America. That is why I have made support for academic freedom, school choice, trade skills and affordability in education a cornerstone of my career in public service.

On Foreign Policy:
Strong believer that America must be a presence in the world
[On US role]: "I am for supporting the Ukrainian effort with American resources," Dolan said, "so that we make a strong statement to tyrants all over the world that any invasion of other countries is not going to be sat idly by."
"I am a strong believer that America needs to be a presence in the world," he insisted. "It's not to decide not to engage in wars. It's not to change regimes. It's to maintain law and order."
