Our Analysis:
Beginning in 2016, President Donald Trump turned the state of Ohio into a solid red state after several decades of it being a swing state. The citizens of the Buckeye State have become more conservative and more blue-collar.
Ohio's 14th Congressional District is located in the very northeast corner of the state, and within this district is a mirror-image of the political winds of the state.
Representative David Joyce is the congressman from this district, and unfortunately, he does not represent the conservatives of the 14th CD. Consequently, his ineffectual relationship with conservatism lands him once again on Conservative First's 2024 Target List. Although Joyce promised to be a far more reliable conservative than his predecessor, he has failed in every aspect and the citizens of the district deserve better. Conservative First is on the job to make that a reality.
Rep. Joyce has been consistently ranked as one of the most moderate members of the House on the political right and at times, ranked #1. He is consistently moderate and/or liberal on economic and social issues.
In June of 2024, Rep. Joyce was the only member of the House majority to vote against holding Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt for his refusal to release audio recordings related to Special Counsel Robert Hur’s investigation of President Joe Biden’s willful mishandling of classified information.
Rep. Joyce's backing of federal subsidies displays a clear misunderstanding of how a free-market works. These programs are doing far more harm than the good they purport to help.
Rep. David Joyce has been in Congress for over a decade now and the conclusions that can gleaned from researching his record are that Joyce simply does not see the federal government as the threat to freedom that conservatives do. In addition, he enjoys "reaching across the aisle" and thinks that Washington D.C. of today should be like the one from yesteryear when members of Congress had BBQs together and were friends. That will never happen again if it ever was a reality.
Rep. Dave Joyce's Conservative First Index (CFI) of 35 is an embarrassment and illustrates just how hard it is to defeat incumbents and drain the swamp but we will never waver in our mission. He will remain on the our Target List for as long as he is a sitting member of Congress.
Ohio’s 14th Congressional District is an eclectic mix of members of the political ruling class in the northeastern counties, working-class workers from Cuyahoga County, and conservatives in the northern half of Summit County. The conventional wisdom is that only a moderate from either party is capable of winning in this environment. We reject this notion and are anxious to see a true conservative rise up and prove the conventional wisdom wrong.
