Ohio will vote August 8 on a measure to make it harder for voters to amend the state constitution.
JD Vance backs it, arguing it protects voters from "out of state" interests ahead of an abortion referendum.
If the ballot measure passes, future amendments to the state constitution would require at least 60% support among voters to be enacted.
The change has been pushed by Ohio Republicans ahead of a referendum in November on enshrining abortion rights in the state constitution.
"There is nothing radical about requiring a 60% vote to amend the State Constitution," reads a message on the group's website.
