I’ve visited dozens of factories & businesses in the past year & I keep hearing the same thing: They don’t have enough qualified workers to fill positions. My #JOBSAct will address this by making #CTE programs more affordable for low-income students. https://t.co/9EFAPzVZlG — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We have a strong economy today, thanks in part to #taxreform, but there’s still more we can do. By passing my bipartisan #JOBSAct, we can help young people get the skills they need to fill in-demand #jobs. https://t.co/9EFAPzVZlG — PolitiTweet.org

An October 2018 report from #Ohio University said that psychostimulants—including meth—were found in just nine unintentional deaths in 2010. That number rose to 509 in 2017, 5,000+ percent increase in 7yrs. We must do more to help. https://t.co/a3Fktl0hNx — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

...but we can’t take our eye off the ball when it comes to addressing the meth problem. https://t.co/a3Fktl0hNx — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Last night on the @SenateFloor, I highlighted the growing danger of meth abuse in #Ohio & across the nation. We’re making some progress in combating the #opioidcrisis through my #CARA, #CURES, & #STOPAct legislation... — PolitiTweet.org

AI will have significant impacts for our country, economy, & society. Ensuring our govt has the capabilities & expertise to navigate those impacts is important & my bipartisan legislation will help ensure our gov’t understands the benefits & pitfalls of this technology. — PolitiTweet.org

Honored to have received an award from the Family Focused Treatment Association (@FFTATFC) this morning in recognition of my commitment to the Treatment Family Care Service Act. https://t.co/W7XzEm25Bq — PolitiTweet.org

Great to meet the new Executive Director for Government Relations at @UofCincy, Karen Ryan, earlier today. The University of Cincinnati is a great school and I look forward to working w/ Karen on UC priorities as higher education reauthorization moves forward. https://t.co/I48swIdsjj — PolitiTweet.org

ICYMI: This morning I was on @SquawkCNBC to discuss the trade talks w/ #China in the US & my belief that Congress will ultimately pass the US-Mexico-Canada trade agreement. #jobs https://t.co/N5MzfXdaCb — PolitiTweet.org

Pleased to see that that the Trump admin will be requiring drug companies to state their prices in advertisements. Transparency is good for patients and the health care system. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Proud to support #Ohio’s coal miners today at a @UnitedMineWorkers press conference. They’ve worked hard & played by the rules for years but now face severe pension cuts. This is unacceptable. I support the Miners Pensions Protection Act to address this crisis. https://t.co/FEvgpDcB1I — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I look forward to hearing more from Workhorse about its plans to bring jobs to #Lordstown, & I’m hopeful that this news will benefit the workers there. I’ll continue to work w/ @GM, the @UAW, & other key stakeholders on this matter in the coming weeks & months. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

My message to @GM all along has been either to bring a new GM vehicle to the plant or to find a partner that will use this world-class facility so people can get back to work. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

She also told me that @GM, subject to the approval of the @UAW, is in negotiations to sell the #Lordstown plant to the Workhorse Group to make commercial electric trucks. I also spoke w/ Dave Green, UAW Local 1112 president, about the news. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I just spoke with @GM CEO Mary Barra who told me GM would invest an additional $700 million in #Ohio at its Toledo, Parma & Moraine plants, which would create 450 new #jobs. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I want to thank @realDonaldTrump for his help in bringing new production to #Lordstown. I’m hopeful we will see the #Lordstown plant humming again. #jobs #Ohio — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Optimistic about the news today for the #Lordstown community. I've worked with Workhorse and look forward to further developments and news from @GM. #Ohio — PolitiTweet.org

Great #BuckeyeCoffee this morning. It’s always nice to start the day with smiling #Ohioan faces. We discussed #trade w/ China, health care, consumer protection & more! #Ohio https://t.co/RjrvLtS4Rb — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Alarming story from @Cleveland19 about a foiled kidnapping of 7 month old Zeke in #WayneCo. The kidnapper is still at large so please stay vigilant & report any suspicious behavior. https://t.co/1ezXjD1lBl — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Last week on the @Senatefloor I discussed how my bipartisan #JOBSAct will provide Americans with better opportunities, help fill today’s in-demand #jobs w/ skilled workers & keep growing our economy & creating #jobs. https://t.co/Iksatykw1v — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I’m encouraged at the economic progress we’re making through #taxreform. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

This week is #NationalSmallBusinessWeek! Thanks to #taxreform, #smallbiz across #Ohio are hiring more workers, increasing wages, and reinvesting in their businesses. #Smallbiz workers make up the backbone of our nation’s economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We must address the disparities that hold some individuals back from receiving quality health care. Today I introduced the bipartisan #UNDERSTANDAct to help inform future health care policy making & improve health outcomes for vulnerable populations. https://t.co/LWAzX9c9L1 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Honored to speak at the @Rotary International Action Group Against Slavery reception this evening & introduce @IJM’s @GaryHaugen. Combating human trafficking is one of my top priorities & I’m proud to work with great partners in this effort. https://t.co/KPySp4B1nE — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Extremely proud of North central #Ohio’s participation in #NationalTakeBackDay last month. As reported by @knoxpages, the community collected more than 2,000 lbs of expired or unused prescription pills. That’s incredible! https://t.co/7GgORqucaP — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Wonderful story of redemption and the power of God’s love in @AshlandSource about Ronnie Hopkins, who has transformed his life that was once devoted to drugs to now being an @Ashland_Univ graduate and a career path to helping others. #Ohio https://t.co/dw9OJZYKt9 — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

Productive discussion at the American Jewish Committee’s 75th Anniversary event in #Cleveland last night. I have worked to strengthen the bond between the U.S. and #Israel, and I will continue in that effort. https://t.co/8GP4193vko — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

I enjoyed learning how to make pretzels today during my tour of @Bloom_Bakery. They are doing incredible work by providing culinary arts training & employment for ex-offenders who are reentering the workforce! https://t.co/qWZzK348At — PolitiTweet.org

Rob Portman @senrobportman

We have a skills gap. We can strengthen Career & Technical Education by passing my #JOBSAct to work in conjunction w/ my bipartisan #SecondChanceAct to help ex-offenders re-enter society & live up to their God-given potential. https://t.co/Ifwyc0MXR4 https://t.co/VBBJeHzSWD — PolitiTweet.org
