Right now in labs all across America, some of the best and brightest minds are at work on therapies, cures, and vaccines for COVID-19. We need to ensure this vital, taxpayer-funded research is protected from China and other foreign actors determined to steal it. https://t.co/ZVpbe8jh4H — PolitiTweet.org

On this World Day Against Human Trafficking, I reaffirm my commitment to combating this evil crime that should not exist in any country, in this century. We must all work together to #EndHumanTrafficking. — PolitiTweet.org

Disappointing that Senate Dems would oppose a simple, 7-day extension of UI benefits while bipartisan talks continue on the next COVID legislative package. Time for Democrats to start working with us find common ground on real solutions to the challenges caused by this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The #HEALSAct is a good starting point - it supports our families, health care system, schools, local governments and businesses. Ultimately though, both parties should set aside our differences and work together to find common ground ASAP. https://t.co/oXfPoXMBQQ — PolitiTweet.org

In order for our economy to bounce back, employees+customers need to be confident they can safely return to workplaces & businesses. That’s why we need to pass my Healthy Workplace Tax Credit to help businesses cover the cost of PPE, cleaning, reconfiguring workspaces & testing. https://t.co/kmQUreLIB5 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today I joined @SenatorTomUdall & @senstabenow in introducing the REPLANT Act - landmark legislation to support one of our most indispensable natural resources: our forests while creating nearly 49,000 #jobs across the US. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Thanks for the challenge @FrankLaRose! I wear a mask because we all have a role to play in combating this pandemic. Together we can keep folks healthy and help our economy continue to safely reopen. #MaskChallenge😷 https://t.co/zmo5wPALXL — PolitiTweet.org

In today’s technology-dependent world, w/ many folks still working from home, access to high-speed internet is a necessity. That's why I've been working hard to expand access to broadband in rural communities in Ohio & nationwide. https://t.co/w0IdF11wUm — PolitiTweet.org

The lack of transparency in U.S. art sales allowed sanctioned Russian oligarchs to easily evade U.S. sanctions. Congress needs to take action to shine on a light on this opaque industry and ensure sanctions are effective. https://t.co/Qz7SbAjFIX — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Auction houses never bothered to ask the Rotenberg’s art advisor for whom he was buying millions in art.https://t.co/5U4RCwIFeH — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The lack of regulation allows the art industry to avoid the same AML requirements that apply to banks. In fact, the art market is the largest legal, unregulated market in the US. https://t.co/Ith3nLDXjB — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

In 2014, the U.S. sanctioned Russian oligarchs the Rotenbergs due to their close ties to Putin for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In the months following those sanctions, shell companies linked to the Rotenbergs purchased over $18 million in art. https://t.co/nwq4ufc5ek — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

For the past two years, PSI investigated how Russian oligarchs used high value art to evade U.S. sanctions. What we found is quite stunning. https://t.co/1tZIeVwS79 — PolitiTweet.org

The #HEALSAct is a good starting point. It strengthens our health care response, supports COVID-related research efforts, and provides much-needed support to schools and businesses. https://t.co/TRH7soBvtV — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This morning I was honored to introduce Judges Michael Newman, James Knepp & Philip Calabrese at their nomination hearing to serve on the US District Courts for the Southern & Northern Districts of Ohio. I know all three will serve with honor and distinction. https://t.co/FzT0qVJv4P — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This morning, as Chairman of PSI, I unveiled a new bipartisan report w @SenatorCarper detailing how Russian oligarchs have been using the secretive art industry to evade US sanctions & buy and sell high value art. We can't allow this direct violation of US sanctions to continue. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Glad the Safeguarding American Innovation Act is included in the #HEALSAct. #China & other actors are actively trying to steal taxpayer funded research into #COVID vaccines & treatments. This bill is needed to protect this vital research & safeguard the taxpayer's investment. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The next COVID response package should strengthen our health care response and bolster safety efforts in our communities, classrooms, offices & businesses. That means more testing, PPE, contact tracing, & resources for #COVID19 related research. https://t.co/QbVq5d4rb9 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

One thing this pandemic has shown us is that we can no longer rely on countries like #China to produce critical medical supplies. That's why we must bring production of PPE - and the manufacturing #jobs that come with it - back to the United States. https://t.co/6bvEdtkJbc — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We can't continue to kick the can down the road. Retirees, employers & taxpayers deserve proactive multiemployer pension reform before it’s too late. As I state in my @Barrons op-ed, I’ll continue to work on a bipartisan basis to come up with a solution. https://t.co/WZREOc7fg5 — PolitiTweet.org

Just in: @SamuelAdamsBeer is planning to expand in Cincinnati! This is a significant investment in my hometown at a time when good news is desperately needed https://t.co/byquaECK9Y — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I was involved in the 2004 VP Debate at @CWRU when I played the role of VP nominee John Edwards in preparing then-sitting VP Dick Cheney and Case Western did a great job hosting back then. I'm confident they will do so again this year with the Cleveland Clinic's help. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Debates are central to the presidential election process since they allow all Americans the opportunity to hear directly from the candidates & make an informed decision. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Pleased that Ohio's @CWRU is once again hosting a debate, co-hosting with the @ClevelandClinic to ensure that all safety guidelines are followed. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The COVID response package is going to include billions for COVID-19 vaccine, treatments & related research The Safeguarding American Innovation Act will help ensure this research is protected from China & other foreign actors. I'm glad it is included in the #HEALSAct. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Pleased to report that the COVID response package announced today includes my legislation creating a tax credit to help businesses cover the cost of PPE, cleaning, reconfiguring workspaces & testing. This will help ensure employees & customers feel safe returning to businesses. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The next #COVID19 package should include my bill to ensure that small biz owners with past criminal records are not denied PPP aid. These folks have turned their lives around, started a small biz, created #jobs & contribute to their communities. We should have their backs. https://t.co/XR528wZlUQ — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The pandemic has left local governments throughout Ohio struggling due to decreased tax revenue. We need to make sure they have the support and flexibility they need to fund essential services like EMS, firefighters, and police departments. https://t.co/v4IeLcbBuc — PolitiTweet.org
