On January 5, Putsch called out Ramaswamy for being endorsed by the Somali Chamber of Commerce, saying “Wow. The Somali Chamber of Commerce has endorsed Vivek Ramaswamy, who clearly represents pro-immigration interests. I'm running for Governor to represent Americans and Ohioans. Will Vivek condemn the multi-million dollar Somali daycare scam exposed last week in Ohio?”.
