As AI rapidly becomes an intrinsic part of our economy & society, AI-based threats like deepfakes have become an increasing threat to our democracy that we must address. I applaud my Senate colleagues for passing this bipartisan legislation & hope the House will take it up soon. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Last night the Senate passed my bipartisan Deepfake Report Act which directs the Department of Homeland Security to address the challenge of deepfakes by conducting an annual study on the threat they & similar content present. https://t.co/7kggborlpM — PolitiTweet.org

In 2017 alone we had a record 3,523 overdose deaths attributable to fentanyl-related substances in #Ohio. This bipartisan legislation is vital to our efforts to keep fentanyl out of our communities & I urge my colleagues to join me in passing the #FIGHTFentanyl Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Fentanyl has hit #Ohio communities particularly hard. This deadly, synthetic drug knows no zip code & is devastating individuals & families across the US. Today @Sen_JoeManchin & I introduced the bipartisan #FIGHTFentanyl Act to permanently schedule fentanyl-related substances. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We must make it clear that overproducing steel, as #China has done, is unacceptable. Overcapacity hurts #Ohio & American steel workers and it’s important we create a level playing field for trade. https://t.co/H6ej2qTAqv — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Ahead of the Global Steel Forum, @SenSherrodBrown, @SenatorBraun, @SenBobCasey & I sent a letter to @USTradeRep urging the admin to prioritize steel overcapacity. For too long, foreign countries like #China have not been held accountable for overcapacity of steel products. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today @SenSherrodBrown and I introduced a bipartisan resolution honoring the 75th Anniversary of the Warsaw Uprising & the thousands of Poles who bravely stood up & fought against the German Nazi occupation of #Warsaw. https://t.co/Wwr22P9iLC — PolitiTweet.org

This morning, I am chairing a bipartisan Permanent Subcmte on Investigations hearing with federal agencies about how best to improve online comment process, & ensure Americans have a voice in rulemaking process. Watch live here: https://t.co/viLOmCIx5I — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I’m hopeful that this bipartisan report will start a discussion between Congress & the federal agencies about how we can make online comment systems work better both for government agencies and the American people. https://t.co/UghH7K1TDd — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

However, the online comment systems are too often being abused, & agencies have not taken adequate steps to address that misuse. Victims of identity theft are being misrepresented on federal govt websites & agencies are doing little to protect them. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

The online comment process provides Americans with the opportunity to voice their opinions & provide meaningful input to federal agencies, while ensuring that these agencies have the best info possible when proposing new rules and regulations. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today, as Chair of the Permanent Subcmte on Investigations, I released a new bipartisan report w/ Ranking Member @SenatorCarper that documents abuses of the federal govt’s online regulatory comment systems & lack of sufficient response to those abuses. https://t.co/N642OfeE10 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

#USMCA includes new & enforceable environmental and labor standards, a section on digital trade, expanded opportunities for ag trade, & new opportunities for auto #jobs in America. #USMCA is an agreement for America’s future and it’s time for the House to bring it to a vote. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Earlier today on the @SenateFloor, I urged the US House of Representatives to pass #USMCA. Our farmers, manufacturers, & American workers will benefit from this trade agreement. We need to put the American people first, politics second, and get this done. https://t.co/sEQv74GW3n — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We must continue to do everything we can at the federal lvl to ensure #Ohio & the rest of our nation have the resources they need to help our communities heal. I’ll continue to lead efforts in the Senate to combat addiction & help individuals live up to their God-given potential. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

First we must ensure the USPS is fully complying with the #STOPAct & all packages entering the US from #China are being screened. Despite some progress, fentanyl is still entering the US thru our own postal system &they must do more to protect Americans from this deadly substance https://t.co/qByxngEWtg — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This morning I was pleased to join @FLOTUS, @SecAzar, admin officials & some of my House & Senate colleagues for an opioid roundtable to highlight the positive impact of the SUPPORT Act & what more we can do at a federal level. https://t.co/6lx6GbUtZp — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Today is the one year anniversary of @POTUS signing the SUPPORT Act into law, a landmark opioid reform package that includes my bipartisan #STOPAct, Improving Care Act, #CRIBAct & key initiatives from #CARA2. Already, these laws are helping combat the #opioidcrisis. https://t.co/SfjG15xTA9 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Great conversation with #Ohioans this morning at my weekly #BuckeyeCoffee. We were able to discuss critical issues facing our state, including looking for a solution to #Ohio’s high infant & maternal mortality rates. https://t.co/OAXT9UA9fF — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

RT @MattWhitaker46: I still have a lot more questions about #HunterBiden and his dealings in #Ukraine and #Russia. My video on @FoxBusines… — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Earlier this afternoon at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing I heard from @StateDept experts about the impact of Turkey’s recent actions in Syria against our #Kurdish allies. I voiced my concern again for our Kurdish allies and for U.S. diplomacy efforts moving forward. https://t.co/7Ew9DOgAQk — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Glad to see the two Island Class #CoastGuard cutters I helped secure delivered to #Ukraine. It is important to help our ally protect their coastline against future threats. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Across #Ohio I’ve heard from our farmers & manufacturers and they all agree, Congress should pass #USMCA as soon as possible. #USMCA will create 175k+ more American #jobs and boost our economy. This trade agreement makes sense, it’s time to stop stalling, Let’s pass #USMCA. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Tomorrow is National Drug #TakeBackDay. Make sure your old, unused, or expired prescriptions don’t make it into the hands of someone you love. Find the #Ohio location closest to you to dispose of them here: https://t.co/8H11AVjfFM — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I’ll continue my work at the federal level to ensure #Ohio communities, like those in Scioto County, have the support they need in order to heal these communities that have been scarred by the #opioidepidemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This @BostonGlobe story is the perfect example of the positive impact local communities can have on turning the tide on the #opioidepidemic. I’m proud of the great work Dale King is doing for the people of #Portsmouth. https://t.co/yNxIYOwMhq — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I’ve lead efforts at the federal level through my bipartisan State Opioid Response grants to ensure that communities like #Portsmouth receive the resources they need but it’s important that organizations at the local level, like Dale King's gym, are involved in finding solutions. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

King opened the Portsmouth Spartan Kettlebell Club in an effort to give those struggling with opioid addiction a community they could turn to and work on their recovery & wellness. In turn, some of King’s students have gone on to work in the gym or in the community. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Good read from @BostonGlobe about the devastating impact the #opioidcrisis has had on #Ohio communities like Portsmouth and the incredible work people like Dale King are doing to help individuals suffering from addiction. https://t.co/yNxIYOwMhq — PolitiTweet.org
