Earlier this week, alongside hundreds of Ohioans, our community celebrated the life and works a Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King with Macedonia Baptist Church in Toledo and its rousing choir. We also welcomed the NAACP's Reverend Dr. Wendell Anthony, who spoke eloquently of Dr. King's living legacy.
Markets plunged over 2% yesterday as President Trump escalated reckless talk about games Greenland. Billions erased from retirement savings, pensions, your hard earned dollars, stocks and savings take a hit while he toys with American credibility on the world stage. This is destabilizing our nation.
Highlighting transportation and infrastructure priorities for NW Ohio communities I represent along Lake Erie, from Defiance through Toledo to Sandusky and our surrounding rural counties. Transportation and infrastructure is not an abstract concept for our manufacturing and agricultural communities.
On #MartinLutherKingJrDay let us remember that while times might seem dark, we cannot lose sight of the dream. We must maintain hope, optimism, and a will to make a better world every day. While we may have difficulties ahead, only together will we make a difference for all those to come.
“I must confess that that dream that I had that day has in many points turned into a nightmare. Now I’m not one to lose hope. I keep on hoping. I still have faith in the future. But I’ve had to analyze many things over the last few years and I would say over the last few months, I’ve gone through a lot of soul-searching and agonizing moments. And I’ve come to see that we have many more difficulties ahead and some of the old optimism was a little superficial and now it must be tempered with a solid realism. And I think the realistic fact is that we still have a long, long way to go.”

Martin Luther King Jr. — May 8, 1967
Great to join hundreds of people from across NW Ohio in Williams County for the annual Edgerton Fire Department all-you-can eat pancake breakfast. Thanks to the Edgerton Boy Scouts for helping to serve over 400 in attendance. Always love taking part in these beloved local NW Ohio traditions.
Great to visit Perkins High School and honor Kia Preston as 9th District Congressional App Challenge winner, and their Robotics Team who have partnered with NASA! Thanks to Computer Science teacher Mike Leffler and Robotics Team Advisor John Stout for lighting the way for these bright young minds.
Military threats on NATO allies and tariffs that raise prices on hard working Americans and NW Ohio manufacturers have to stop. We need a united front and new sanctions against Russia — not mob extortion tactics against our friends to seize their land!
The Trump proposal to roll out the red carpet for autos from Communist China is bad policy. As a daughter of the @UAW.org, I couldn’t think of a bigger slap in the face to the men and women who work day in and day out to build our region, and America forward.
For decades, the men and women who built Delphi were told that if they worked hard and kept their end of the deal, their retirement benefits would be there for them. That promise was broken through no fault of their own, when Delphi collapsed. The Susan Muffley Act would help correct that injustice.
Last year 68,000 manufacturing jobs were lost across our country as a direct result of President Trump's reckless tariffs and DOGE cuts. When manufacturing jobs disappear and costs rise, Ohio families suffer. Lost jobs and rising costs are not an abstract economic theory, they are a harsh reality.
Great to join our bipartisan Steel Caucus for a hearing with industry and labor leaders. The hardworking men and women who make the steel that undergirds our automotive, defense, and manufacturing industrial base are critical to American security and competitiveness.
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.
