Last week Putin continued his illegal war with a double tap attack on Kyiv. A double tap is when a target is struck, but then quickly struck again to kill survivors and first responders. We must do more to deter illegal Russian aggression—or more innocent Ukrainians will continue to be laid to rest.
We can’t just shrug at success! Bravo to the longshoremen, US Army Corps, Steelworkers, and all who power our Great Lakes economy! Proud to do my part—working on a bipartisan basis to deliver $1 Billion in investment to modernize the Soo Lock and transform trade that powers and feeds the world.
Despite enduring unspeakable loss, Maxim Naumov stepped onto the ice with courage, composure, and grace under pressure. He delivered a powerful short program at the US Figure Skating Championships, and secured a spot on the US Olympic team. You make America proud. Onward, Maxim and Onward, America!
From a kitchen dream to a national sensation, Willy’s Salsa is an Ohio story to celebrate! Great to visit them and see their brand-new, state-of-the-art facility. Success stories that sprout from the federal manufacturing extension CIFT partnership are worth fighting for. Jobs and innovation result!
Reintroduced the bipartisan Gang Activity Reporting Act with fellow Appropriator Rep. Ashley Hinson. This legislation has an urgent purpose to give law enforcement the accurate comprehensive data they need to combat gang violence and keep our communities safe from Ohio to Iowa and coast to coast.
Who’s looking out for YOU? Leader Jeffries & @housedemocrats.bsky.social worked across the aisle to pass ACA credits for 3 years. Meanwhile, the President sent $40 Billion to bailout Argentina instead of our people. If the Senate fails to act 24 million face doubling insurance rates through 2026.
Over GOP opposition, the House passed a 3 year extension of ACA tax credits to shield 24 Million Americans—including tens of thousands of NW Ohio families from devastating price hikes. Now it's time for our colleagues in the Senate to pass a bipartisan extension and put American’s First.
I served with Congresswoman @GabbyGiffords.bsky.social, and am still in awe at her courage after the 2011 attack. 15 years later? We still combat political violence, which has no place in our democracy. From NW Ohio to Tucson and far beyond, we stand united for safer communities.
I have sought over the course of the year information from DHS regarding ICE procedures and practices in the field without answers from the Trump Administration. It is time for answers, accountability, and prayer.
Tonight a child in Minnesota is without parents. video of a federal officer shooting and killing the mother are deeply disturbing. There must be a full investigation, and the law must prevail.
For 36 years Heidi Hess stood at the front of classrooms at Owens Community College and prepared over 1,000 men and women to answer the most urgent calls and life saving moments when every second counts. Thank you Heidi Hess for giving your heart and skills to others for decades.
Today the Trump White House released a revisionist history of January 6—blaming Capitol Police for inciting violence that day. As one of the Members trapped in the House gallery as the mob closed in, I can say with certainty those officers are heroes—to say otherwise disrespects all law enforcement.
On the eve of Congress’ return for its first session of the New Year, it is a joy to see NW Ohio homes still lit up for the Season of Hope despite the headlines driving the news.
Happy #NationalBirdDay! Each spring, billions of birds fill skies, link nations, and nourish ecosystems. Last year I introduced a bipartisan resolution proclaiming National American Birding Week to highlight just that. From the Great Lakes to backyards, migration reminds us why conservation matters!
We should not be imposing leaders to govern foreign nations. That is what dictators do. There are many questions still to be answered on what occurred, and what comes in the days ahead, and as a senior Defense Appropriator I plan to get those answers. May God bless our nation and our troops.
He replied from “the general accounts.” That is a dodge, not an answer. As a senior Defense Appropriator, I plan to continue to push for transparency and answers. The United States of America should not be in the business of invading foreign nations and regime change to steal their material wealth.
Congress were lied to in briefings and the American people were lied to since. As a senior Appropriator who questioned Sec. Pete Hegseth on exactly which DoD accounts were being drained of Billions of dollars to conduct these costly foreign operations south of our border, no answer was forthcoming.
