Saint Benedict School celebrates #TeacherAppreciationWeek. Our brilliant educators are much more than just teachers: They are role models, mentors, and dedicated advocates for their students. Honored to return to where I learned so much and meet with 8th grade students and teachers.

While the Trump Organization banks $1 Billion a month since the Inauguration, small business owners are struggling. Costs are soaring, margins shrinking, and uncertainty lurks as arbitrary tariffs create chaos. This #SmallBusinessWeek, stand with your local entrepreneurs over the Billionaires.

On #NationalTrainDay, we celebrate the power of rail to connect communities, create jobs, and drive economic growth. For years, we've fought to strengthen rail in NW Ohio, and I’ll continue to advocate for a modern, safe, and efficient system that benefits us all. Here’s to a brighter rail future!

On Military Spouse Appreciation Day, we honor the strength and sacrifice of those who stand beside our service members. Their quiet courage sustains our military and our nation. I remain committed to ensuring they receive the recognition, support, and care they so deeply deserve.

The Spiderweb of Tyranny between Russia, China, and North Korea was on full display today as Xi visited with Dictator Putin in Moscow and North Korean troops marched through Red Square. Putin cannot be trusted and will never be allowed to cover up the crimes he continues to commit against Ukraine.

Xi and Putin vow stronger ties at Russia's WWII Victory Day parade ahead of U.S.-China trade talks

Chinese President Xi Jinping’s presence at the parade gave Russian President Vladimir Putin a boost as he tries to show that he is not isolated on the global stage.

Introduced a bipartisan resolution alongside my NW Ohio colleague Bob Latta, proclaiming May 9-18, as National American Birding Week. Each spring, our abundant Freshwater Kingdom hosts birders from near and far for the Biggest Week in American Birding. Let this tradition continue for years to come.

Gold cribs for me, and toy and pencil rationing for thee.

President Trump says kids only need 5 pencils and can make do with 2 dolls that will cost more. I think every child should have toys and school supplies. While working families stretch every dollar — those who don’t feel the impact shrug off real harm caused by these reckless and arbitrary tariffs.

A 'beautiful baby girl' doesn't need so many dolls, Trump says. Also: five pencils are enough

'I don't think that a beautiful baby girl needs – that's 11 years old – needs to have 30 dolls,' Trump said, defending his tariffs. Also: five pencils are fine.

Today we celebrate 80 years since Liberty’s victory over Tyranny in Europe during WWII. We must never forget the American soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice alongside our Allies to achieve victory. These heroes fought for a free world that enshrines Liberty, and our commitment to defend it.

As a lifelong Catholic and proud Great Laker, I am deeply moved to witness the astounding selection of Pope Leo XIV from Chicago’s South Side. Historically, he is the first American to ascend to the Papacy.

Cardinal Robert Prevost, born in Chicago, is the first American pope

Prevost, 69, took the name Leo XIV. His rise to become an influential figure at the Vatican began while growing up in Dolton.

Led a letter this week alongside @repwesleybellmo.bsky.social, @quigley.house.gov, and @hankjohnson.house.gov to President Trump & AG Pam Bondi calling to pull the nomination of Ed Martin due to concerning ties to Russian state media amongst other concerns. Glad his nomination has since been pulled.

Trump says he's pulling nomination of Ed Martin for top D.C. federal prosecutor

Martin is the second Trump nominee in as many days to be pulled after it appeared they would not have the Senate votes to be confirmed.

During his confirmation hearings, Department of Energy Secretary Wright said he would "respond to issues of concern to Congress." He has since ignored 4 bicameral requests for information in February, March, and April. His answers are disappointing, and the lack of response speaks for itself.
