After 4:00 am we are still fighting to stop this Big Bonanza Bill for Billionaires. It makes life harder for the people of NW Ohio while ceding our glass industry and forfeiting America's lead in solar energy to China. Congress can create a brighter future for America by defeating this bloated bill.

I updated you as the sun came up and I headed to DC. Now it is after midnight and we are still fighting to turn back the Billionaire Bonanza and prevent rural hospital closures, 17 million losing health care, over $3 Trillion added to the debt, and construction job losses across NW Ohio.
The One Big Bonanza for Billionaires Bill is cartoonishly evil — robbing the poor to feed the rich.
If this is true, then Mr. Colby, who opposed military assistance to Ukraine and even refused to acknowledge that Russia’s actions amounted to an “invasion” of Ukraine in his confirmation hearing, is taking action that will surely result in the imminent death of many Ukrainian military and civilians.
US made air defense systems, including the Patriot platform, are the centerpiece of Ukraine’s defenses against Russian strikes. They work. They save lives every day. But there are no parallel defensive alternatives for Ukraine if the US stops supplying these vital munitions.
This halt comes just days after the single largest indiscriminate barrage against Ukraine by Russia in which Putin launched over 500 drones and missiles against its cities. Russia only continues to escalate its devastating strikes.
This morning, @HouseDemocrats.bsky.social are standing united to stop this Big Ugly Bill. It rips health care away from more than 17 million across America, while killing millions of good paying construction jobs. We are standing up for Americans, the House GOP are standing up for Billionaires.
On my way to Washington where this week the House takes up the bill the Senate completed which delivers an immoral transfer of wealth from the middle class and poor to Billionaires. I will not support taking health care from 17 million of Americans while killing construction jobs in the Great Lakes.
On National Postal Workers' Day we honor the dedicated workers of the USPS—heroes who deliver our essentials with care and commitment through heat, rain, and snow. As a former letter carrier, I’ve never lost faith in those who play such a vital role in our lives. We must protect this public service!
Caught up with these hardworking Operating Engineers who are helping to rebuild the heart of Toledo — even in this heat. Thanks to NW Ohio’s Building Trades for exemplifying the best that is in all of us and getting the job done!
Today we honor the founding of the National Organization for Women in 1966. Shaped by this movement we stand on the shoulders of pioneers like Betty Friedan, Pauli Murray and Toledo’s own Gloria Steinem. Their vocation to justice, dignity and equality lights our path forward still today.

If you want to understand just a few of the provisions in this bill that explicitly hurt low income Americans to help the super wealthy, read this letter to the editor from our representative. Thank you @repmarcykaptur.bsky.social for being loud about how this will hurt all of us. #ohiodems #DNC
The Big Ugly Bill kills clean energy tax credits AND adds new taxes on solar and wind construction! As electricity demand booms with heatwaves, AI, and data centers, the GOP is abandoning an all of the above energy solution — and big industry in NW Ohio. Bad for jobs, and worse for our energy bills!
🤯 The GOP’s Big Ugly Bill will add more than $25,000 per American household to our national debt. For Billionaire Tax Breaks??? Where are the JOBS???

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.
