Absent that this year, we did what we were able with extremists and outsized egos trying to manipulate the process.

A return to regular order, where we pass all 12 regular Appropriations bills to fund our government on-time and in-budget, would be a real gift for the American people going forward.

my own bill which ensures health coverage follows children in military families wherever they go, and efforts that would block maligned investment and Chinese influence.

I remain disappointed by the removal of key negotiated provisions for year round nationwide E-15 fuel sales, funding for childhood cancer research, other key health measures including PBM Reform,

🧵Tonight I voted to keep our government open, and to help the people I represent across our region of Northwest Ohio.

With only 45 minutes to review a bill of such magnitude, I voted Present to signal we need to form a “Big Middle” and go back to the drawing board. Our nation does not need default nor Billionaires walking away with the public purse and giving more American jobs away to China.

We learned late this afternoon that Republican leadership of this House derailed the important Appropriation bills to fund the government of the United States. The American people have been waiting for far too long. If you can't bring the bill to the floor, you shouldn't be paid.
