Big thank you to all of the parents, grandparents and caregivers who have taken on the role of “teacher” during this pandemic. What you are doing is so important to ensuring our kids will be ready to hit the ground running once we move past this pandemic. https://t.co/izmZ1EuSCU — PolitiTweet.org

Congress must be able to fulfill its constitutional duties even when it is not safe to convene in person. That is exactly why we must be able to vote remotely. I urge my colleagues to support my bipartisan resolution to allow it. https://t.co/eUIJqbjtWq — PolitiTweet.org

If we continue to follow the guidelines and social distance, I have no doubt we will beat this virus and come out of this stronger than ever. #InThisTogetherOhio https://t.co/WWFDraWBb0 — PolitiTweet.org

Earlier this week I held a tele town hall and spoke with Jason from Columbus who really inspired me. Though he lost his job, he’s now volunteering at a foodbank to help those less fortunate during this crisis. What other stories from around #Ohio have inspired you? — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Remote voting has bipartisan support because Congress should continue performing all of its duties during national crises, even if it is not safe for us to convene in person. Millions of Americans are working remotely; Congress can too. https://t.co/HXdGfpLPus — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Last week, Ohio received $2.26 billion in federal funding to help state & local govts impacted by the #coronavirus pandemic. Unemployment is rising & tax revenue is declining, creating significant budget shortfalls. I’ll continue to do everything I can to help. — PolitiTweet.org

I was glad I could help an innovative new Cleveland company, Second Breath, secure FDA approval for their ventilators they have developed just in the past several weeks to respond to this crisis. They are already ramping up production. Very proud of their life-saving work. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I joined @SenSherrodBrown & the entire Ohio congressional delegation in calling on the FEMA Administrator to promptly approve @GovMikeDeWine's request for additional PPE. We must ensure our brave health care professionals & essential workers have the protection they need. https://t.co/aA9nXNXMPU — PolitiTweet.org

Great news: I've just learned that VA benefit recipients will automatically receive their stimulus checks. No add'l paperwork or tax filings. Thank you to the @IRSnews, @USTreasury & @DeptVetAffairs for ensuring our Vets & their families are taken care of.https://t.co/3m5W1w41Ii — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Yesterday, Ohio received $2.26B in federal funding to help state & local governments struggling due to the decline in tax revenue caused by rising unemployment & the contraction of our economy. This is good news & I will continue my efforts to help. — PolitiTweet.org

Carmen Williamson served in the Navy, went 250-14 in the ring, raised 5 daughters & was the first African-American to officiate an Olympic boxing match. As we mourn Williamson's passing, let us draw inspiration from his long life of exemplary achievement. https://t.co/Nhef9HKcW4 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The #PaycheckProtectionProgram has already issued 1M+ loans to small businesses, saving millions of jobs nationwide. But yesterday the program ran out of money. And Democrats have blocked a measure to replenish it. Let’s stop playing politics & fund this vital lifeline now. https://t.co/OIYDnYeFg2 — PolitiTweet.org

I’m teaming up with the good folks at Ohio’s public libraries to read my favorite children’s book to all of the kids cooped up at home. I chose "House Mouse, Senate Mouse" about Congress. Hope you enjoy! https://t.co/JufWF9ltf2 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

As I told Amy & Nathan on @AllworthRetire's “Simply Money Podcast,” the U.S. Senate needs to be able to vote remotely in times like these when we can’t safely gather together. We can’t allow this virus to stop us from fulfilling our Constitutional duties.https://t.co/xCJeTVFt0k — PolitiTweet.org

IMPORTANT: The @RedCross is currently facing a serious blood shortage. The good news is that you can help! If you are healthy and able to do so, please consider donating blood. It’s quick, easy and, most importantly, it can save a life. https://t.co/HT9PmsQQoV — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I believe it’s important for @POTUS and his medical experts to get a wide range of advice & counsel from state & local officials, employers, and others to reopen the US economy safely. I look forward to doing my part as we consider how to begin this process. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Appreciated the insights & thoughts a number of NE #Ohio's Mayors & County Managers shared with me this morning on the federal & local efforts to combat the coronavirus pandemic and its impact on the economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Quick update: Ohio received $2.26 billion in federal relief today. These funds will help mitigate the economic impact of the #coronavirus pandemic on state & local governments which are suffering as unemployment has skyrocketed & tax revenue has declined. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The Paycheck Protection Program has run out of money. This is no time for partisan politics. Congress must replenish the funds today. Millions of jobs are on the line. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The #PaycheckProtectionProgram has already distributed $300B+ to more than 1.3M small businesses nationwide. But this vital lifeline is about to run out of money. We can’t allow that to happen. Congress needs to set politics aside & come together to fully fund the program ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org
