Congratulations to Judge Michael Newman on his confirmation to be the next federal judge in the Southern District of #Ohio. Judge Newman has served Dayton with honor & distinction. He brings a wealth of experience & I’m confident he will make Ohio proud. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I applaud @realDonaldTrump for taking action to help the 5000+ Delphi retirees in Ohio. I've fought for years to ensure Delphi retirees receive the pension+health care benefits they've earned. Thanks to POTUS they are now 1 step closer to seeing their pension benefits reinstated. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Adding more justices to the Supreme Court to try and dictate preferred policy outcomes is dangerous & would undermine the legitimacy and credibility of the #SCOTUS. That is why I am supporting a constitutional amendment to prevent court packing. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Judge Barrett is one step away from the Supreme Court. I enjoyed meeting w/ her yesterday & look forward to voting for her confirmation on the floor soon! — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Exceptional job by the Summit County Sheriff’s Office! Human trafficking should not happen in #Ohio or anywhere across the globe. I will continue to work at the federal level to end it once and for all. #endhumantrafficking #sesta https://t.co/eHHsOtBgbT — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Judge Amy Coney Barrett is exceptionally qualified to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court and I’m proud to support her confirmation. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Deeply disappointed Senate Dems blocked yet another COVID relief package that would have provided aid for #smallbiz, an extension of UI benefits, money for schools & funding for testing & vaccine development. Democrats are playing politics rather than helping the American people. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

That is why we must redouble our efforts to combat #addiction and lend a helping hand to those who are suffering. My bill to make access to telehealth services permanent for those struggling with addiction will help. It’s time to pass it. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

In recent years we have made real progress in fighting the scourge of #addiction. I’ve led efforts on #CARA & #CURES. However, the COVID19 pandemic has set us back and we are now seeing a heartbreaking surge in overdose deaths. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Pleased to see Purdue Pharma being held accountable for its role in creating the #opioidepidemic, which has ravaged communities in #Ohio and across the nation. https://t.co/cluiJEdI3H — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This is a welcome development. More than a million Americans have died from #opioid overdoses since 1998, and Purdue Pharma bears a great deal of the responsibility. I am glad they are being held accountable. https://t.co/bqud274pbN — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Throughout the #COVID19 pandemic, I’ve expressed concerns about its impact on those struggling with addiction & mental health issues. I will continue working with folks across the aisle to secure more resources to combat addiction. https://t.co/s9sjXYSUSX — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I was delighted to meet with Judge Amy Coney Barrett this morning. I’ve been so impressed by her legal expertise, judicial temperament, and commitment to the Constitution. She is an exceptional nominee! https://t.co/db7gfUGSn4 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Pro-growth policies such as tax cuts and regulatory relief, which built a strong American economy prior to #COVID19, should serve as the foundation of the post-COVID economy.https://t.co/FulDkGQoAu — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

These funds often come w/ strings attached that undermine academic freedom & threaten our nat'l security. This is a serious problem & it’s time to pass the Safeguarding American Innovation Act to give @usedgov more authority to enforce foreign gift reporting. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I applaud the @usedgov for following up on our 2019 bipartisan PSI report documenting the stunning lack of transparency in our education system. Today’s @usedgov report reveals that U.S. colleges & universities failed to disclose more than $6.5B in funding from foreign sources. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Deeply disappointed Senate Dems blocked efforts to make progress on another round of the Paycheck Protection Program. The PPP has saved millions of jobs & enabled countless small businesses to stay afloat during the pandemic. Dems shouldn’t be playing politics with American #jobs — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

During the Senate Judiciary hearings, Judge Amy Coney Barrett was impressive, showing she is well-qualified for the position. I look forward to sitting down with Judge Barrett tomorrow to further discuss her nomination. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Pleased to see @DHSgov establish the Center for Countering Human Trafficking. I look forward to working with DHS & the Center as we continue our efforts to end this terrible crime in the United States and abroad. https://t.co/E5917QUuWT — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

John Ruthven was a nationally recognized wildlife artist & a naturalist whose artistic skills earned him countless awards. But it was his integrity, humility, generosity & personal warmth that set him apart. I was proud to call John a friend & I will miss him dearly. #Ohio https://t.co/LSCzGJzLHE — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Merrill's Marauders volunteered for a dangerous mission during World War II and are rightly awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. Honored to cosponsor the legislation that recognized this brave group of soldiers and their historic service. https://t.co/wIcTwVN71q — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Thanks to @TheBushCenter for the opportunity to discuss important national security topics like state sponsored disinformation campaigns, cyber security and securing our elections. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Proud to see the CDR Hannon veterans bill, which I was proud to cosponsor, is now law. It will ensure the VA explores new ways to address suicide prevention, including research, improved telehealth & alternative treatments for #veterans. https://t.co/dWCuff5Bjo — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We can protect the environment in a way that grows the economy and creates #jobs while ensuring that we pass on a better, healthier world to our children and grandchildren. https://t.co/gQ3coPFnqO — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Deeply concerned with the ongoing fighting between Armenia & Azerbaijan over the Nagorno-Karabakh region. My view has been clear from the start: Both sides need to put down their weapons and come to the table to negotiate a peaceful end to this decades-long disagreement. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

As our bipartisan #PSI investigation showed, for nearly 20 years, China has been stealing our taxpayer-funded research and IP. It’s time to pass the bipartisan Safeguarding American Innovation Act. https://t.co/IDBPpV3Zg6 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Before the pandemic, pro-growth policies like tax reform & regulatory relief created a strong economy in which wages rose & opportunity expanded for hard-working Americans. These policies should be the foundation upon which we rebuild our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This week, the Senate will vote on a targeted #COVID19 relief bill that will expand testing, help workers & small businesses, support schools & provide billions for vaccine development. These are bipartisan priorities. I hope Senate Dems will put politics aside & support it. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Had a chance to touch base with local leaders from Lordstown in the Mahoning Valley earlier this week about some promising opportunities. Between Lordstown Motors, the coming GM/LG Chem battery plant, TJX Distribution Center and more. Lordstown is starting to turn the corner. https://t.co/yTwKWWzcvA — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This week Judge Amy Coney Barrett committed to applyIng the law as written and not legislating from the bench. I think that’s the correct role for a Justice, and most people agree. Her personal story is compelling. She is truly a model for working parents everywhere https://t.co/6IXD7Ztc8x — PolitiTweet.org
