In January, Policy Task Force Co-Chairs Ross and Kamlager-Dove led DWC in demanding the Office of the Inspector General investigate the DOJ’s mishandling of the Epstein files. Today, the Office of the Inspector General notified us that they have launched an investigation.

Water and energy are closely linked at a time when energy demand and energy bills are rising. We must produce clean energy that lowers costs, creates jobs, and protects our air and water. NW Ohio has proven through efforts like the GLRI that when we steward our environment, we invest in our people.

It’s an honor to represent NW Ohio in the heart of our Great Lakes region—part of the largest body of fresh water on Earth. These waters aren’t only our heritage—they represent our economy, health and way of life. This #EarthDay let us commit to protect our precious resources for future generations.

Hungary’s recent and historic election ended the repressive rule of Russia leaning Prime Minister Victor Orbán. As Co-Chair of the Congressional Hungarian Caucus, I cheer with Hungarian Americans thrilled at Prime Minister Péter Magyar's victory for Liberty in Hungary. Bravo! Onward!

Promises made, promises broken again, and again, and again. When will this Administration and the GOP ever focus on lowering costs for the American people? Only time will tell.

Happy #419Day! It’s an honor to serve the hardworking people from across our NW Ohio region. Wishing you all a great day in this place we love!

Thank you Allen Dean of Dean Farms, Alan Sundermeier of Conservation Action Project, Clint and Joe Nester, Williams Soil and Water, and all farmers, producers, and growers involved for a great discussion on water quality and conservation practices being put in to place across our NW Ohio region.

There is no good explanation for this Administration to quietly lift sanctions on Russia late on a Friday night. Congress and the American people need immediate answers. We must not help Russia fund its illegal war in Ukraine and aid Iranian attacks on American troops.

Marcy Kaptur@repmarcykaptur.bsky.socialApr 17(source)

Led a bipartisan Ukraine Caucus meeting with PM Svyrydenko. Ukraine has proven its people have the ingenuity to be a security provider on the world stage. It remains firmly in America’s interest to work closely with our Ukrainian allies. It is time for sanctions to pressure Russia to end this war!

American families are struggling with a 40% increase in gas prices, over $1 a gallon on average, caused by the War of choice with Iran. Instead of taking meaningful steps to bring down the soaring cost of living caused by this Administration’s policy, the President’s budget makes the problem worse.

Marcy Kaptur@repmarcykaptur.bsky.socialApr 15(source)

If you look at tax cuts going back to the Reagan, Bush I, Bush II, and Trump Presidencies, they were never paid for. It didn't grow the economy fast enough to offset the debt generated. We can't solve the problem unless we're honest with ourselves that under Republican Presidents, our debt grew.

Not good for America. Not good for Europe. Not good for Ukraine. This is only good for Russia!

The American people are witnessing something unconstitutional and unprecedented in American history. Article I, Section 9 states “No money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by law.” Mr. Speaker, there was no vote to authorize the unconstiutional War in Iran.

A well informed citizenry starts with one that understands our system of government. It was great to visit Edgerton High School to speak with students studying Government and help answer many of their pressing questions. Thank you all for your thoughtful contributions, see you all again soon!

American rivers are the livelihood of our nation—but many of them remain at risk of pollution. Millions depend on them for fresh drinking water, as economic drivers, for recreational enjoyment, and food supply. Today, let us recommit to protecting these freshwater ecosystems for generations to come.
