A vote for #USMCA is a vote for improved market access, more US manufacturing #jobs & a more level playing field for American workers, farmers, and service providers. I urge my colleagues in the #Senate to join me in supporting it. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

#Ohio’s 2 top trading partners are Canada & Mexico. #USMCA is particularly good for Ohio b/c it expands market access for farm products, incentivizes more auto production in the state, & makes online sales easier for Ohio companies. #jobs — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

By opening more markets, #USMCA is good for US workers, farmers, and manufacturers, and it will create thousands of new #jobs in the US. I applaud @realDonaldTrump & @USTradeRep Lighthizer for their persistence & their determination to finalize this historic new trade agreement. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today’s strong bipartisan vote for #USMCA is good news for #Ohio & our country & it paves the way for Senate approval early next year. This long-awaited agreement is a significant improvement over the status quo of NAFTA. #jobs https://t.co/Z52JRJaUbw — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

These tax incentives are critical to continuing middle-class tax relief & generating more investment & economic development in #Ohio & I want to thank @realDonaldTrump for his support. https://t.co/pPxYOTn2SJ — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today the Senate passed an extension of key tax incentives which I’ve seen help boost #Ohio’s economy, economic development, #jobs & innovation. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Interesting @HHSgov data showing how much Medicare money is wasted on drugs that are thrown out. My bipartisan #REFUNDAct would cut Medicare spending on discarded drugs like this. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm pleased that the Senate passed my bipartisan, common-sense bill with @SenGaryPeters to help save taxpayer $ by updating policies to help federal agencies adopt electric vehicles, which are more fuel efficient than traditional gas-powered vehicles. https://t.co/z2DLd8AzZ5 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Since 2017, @realDonaldTrump has nominated & the Senate has confirmed 2 circuit court judges & 4 district court judges for #Ohio, along w/ 2 new US attorneys and 2 Supreme Court Justices. Strong wins for #Ohio and our judicial system! — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Grateful that the Senate has just confirmed Judge Matt McFarland to serve on the US Federal District Court for the Southern District of #Ohio. His esteemed reputation is well deserved & I’m confident he will continue to make Ohio proud. https://t.co/00fV9lZNu4 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

@BloombergTV I also highlighted the economic benefits of #USMCA, which will create #jobs & support American workers, farmers, & manufacturers. I’m pleased that House Democrats finally agreed to bring #USMCA up for a vote & I’m confident the Senate will pass it in a bipartisan fashion as well. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today on @BloombergTV, I discussed the wins in the final FY2020 funding bills and #NDAA that I helped secure for #Ohio & for our country, including increased funding for our military, the #RURALACT, #SECUREAct, and tax extenders that will help #smallbiz & our economy! https://t.co/t3cnJPwPxP — PolitiTweet.org

I look forward to the president signing this measure into law soon and I hope that it brings comfort to Fred and Cindy Warmbier. https://t.co/Jq3L0m3JNY — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I cosponsored the bipartisan sanctions legislation in the #FY2020NDAA to hold North Korea accountable so that we can work to ensure the abuses against Otto and others don’t keep happening. https://t.co/QOGlHmLad4 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I was honored to be joined by Fred and Cindy Warmbier, Otto’s parents and close personal friends of mine. I’m proud to be their friends and support their efforts to hold #NorthKorea accountable & ensure Otto is never forgotten. https://t.co/MACU6MVGlV — PolitiTweet.org

Glad to join @ChrisVanHollen @SenToomey and @SherrodBrown today to announce the passage of the North Korean sanctions provisions I fought for in #FY2020NDAA to hold North Korea accountable for their actions & human rights abuses against Otto Warmbier & others. #BRINKAct https://t.co/ogY9YB179g — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Finally, the #FY2020NDAA also expands existing financial protections for Gold Star military families’ residential and car leases & posthumously promotes Lt Col Richard Cole to Colonel, the last of the living Doolittle Raiders until he passed away earlier this year. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This legislation also improves coordination across the federal government in identifying and responding to emerging contaminants like per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in our drinking water. — PolitiTweet.org

#FY2020NDAA imposes mandatory sanctions on foreign banks & companies that facilitate illicit financial transactions for #NorthKorea, holding them accountable for their actions & human rights abuses against Otto Warmbier as well as others they’ve illegally held captive. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The NDAA also directs the @DeptofDefense to brief Congress on how they are developing and prioritizing explainable artificial intelligence & to provide Congress with a comparative analysis and briefing on U.S. and #Chinese AI capabilities. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

And #FY2020NDAA authorizes $300M in security assistance for #Ukraine’s forces, sending a clear message that the US stands w/ the Ukrainian people in their struggle to secure a democratic, prosperous, and independent future in the face of Russian aggression. — PolitiTweet.org

Across #Ohio, I’m increasingly hearing about the resurgence of meth & cocaine addiction. I’m pleased that my Combating Meth & Cocaine Act has been included n the final FY 2020 funding bill to give states more flexibility to use state opioid response funds to address this issue. — PolitiTweet.org
