Expanding the mission of the National Museum of the Great Lakes with the Second Wave Grand Opening — the Larry & Karen Bettcher Wing and Great Lakes Community Education Center. Together, we’ll inspire visitors with the rich history of those who helped shape our Great Lakes region.

Today I honored the life of a remarkable daughter of NW Ohio, Diane “Dee” Heywood Talmage. While her passing leaves a deep chasm in our community, Dee was a formidable force for good. Her patriotism, philanthropy, good sense and elegance bestowed a legacy that serves as example of a life well lived.

Toledo native Art Tatum was a revolutionary #jazz musician

This #BMM25, we honor Toledo’s own Art Tatum — a revolutionary jazz pianist and NW Ohio legend whose rendition of “Blue Skies” stunned the world with its genius. A pioneer of sound, Tatum’s brilliance still echoes through every note. Give it a listen!

My support for law enforcement who defended our Capitol and democracy on January 6th is unwavering. As one of the last Members to be evacuated, I experienced it all. We must honor those who faced down that violent siege, stood in the breach for Liberty, and put their lives on the line that day.

It's time to lower the temperature. Political extremism and dangerous divisions among Americans are cause for serious reflection. This is not a Democrat nor Republican challenge, it's an American challenge.

We need NOAA! We are in a county that neighbors Lake Erie and a healthy lake is a necessity!

Today, NOAA and Ohio Sea Grant will announce the 2025 Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) forecast for Lake Erie. This forecast indicates the severity of the bloom season, enabling coastal management and drinking water facility management to take preventive action.

Marcy Kaptur@repmarcykaptur.bsky.socialJun 26(source)

Investment in this detection and forecast is vital to keeping the drinking water and recreation in Lake Erie safe for Ohioans. After the 2014 Toledo water crisis, we created Daily HABs forecast to keep our citizens informed. If funding is taken away, history could repeat itself.

On June 25, 1938, the Fair Labor Standards Act became law. This meant that kids could go to school instead of factories. It gave workers a voice, a wage, and a path to dignity. I think of that every time I vote to protect workers. We owe it to those before us to keep fighting for justice on the job.

The GOP Military Construction and Veterans Affairs bill promotes premature retirements, paves the way for privatization, and leaves care delayed, denied, and diminished. We need to honor our veterans — not punish them and play political games by firing those who care for them.

Marcy Kaptur@repmarcykaptur.bsky.socialJun 25(source)

SMH. The GOP plan to strip Americans of health care and bankrupt local hospitals takes another turn: kick 16 million off health care then subsidize hospitals for losing patients. Those poor Billionaire donors must really need their tax breaks.

Marcy Kaptur@repmarcykaptur.bsky.socialJun 24(source)

In June of 1877, 10 Irish miners—the Molly Maguires—were hanged to silence their demand for dignity. As a union working-class daughter, I honor their courage. They fought for fair wages and justice underground and above. Their struggle lives on in every worker who still dares to organize—Onward! #1u

It is with great concern for our Republic and the long term safety of our people, and our military both at home and abroad that I must speak out about military force launched without Congressional approval. We must reassert our Constitutional authority before we are dragged into another endless war.

GOP Senators are saying Ohio could face $8.4 Billion in Medicaid cuts. They know how bad this bill would be for states like ours. They need to stand up for Ohioans, not pass legislation that closes local hospitals and rips health care away from 700,000+ across the Buckeye State.

Great to see Toledo Port Authority build on $1 Million in federal investment I brought home for our region. NW Ohio is a gateway to the world! I look forward to working with local leaders to bring consistent daily commercial air travel back to Toledo Express Airport.

On this day in 1944, the original GI Bill was signed into law, providing WWII veterans with the benefits they deserved. For decades, I’ve fought to uphold that legacy and ensure every veteran gets the care and respect they’ve earned. We must always stand with our vets—not just in words—but in deed.

If solar energy tax credits are repealed, Ohio stands to lose Billions in Private investment. If we don’t keep jobs of the future at home—we risk giving them away to China for generations. I want these jobs in NW Ohio—not overseas. Now it is up to our Senators to do what is right—and vote no!

I keep one simple truth at heart each and every day—I work for The People of NW Ohio—and I won’t stop that work, no matter how hard the Billionaires and big corporations try to stop me.

🧵 For decades, our workers gave everything to build this country. But trade deals, deregulation, and corporate greed—championed across Administrations—stripped away the backbone of America’s working class. Factories shuttered. Towns hollowed out. Families left to struggle.
