Ohio, the birthplace of aviation, has a long and storied history as a leader in the creation of cutting-edge aeronautic technologies. This $20 Million investment to conduct hypersonic aeronautics testing in Northern Ohio will further that historic legacy. https://t.co/wnfogRccz1 — PolitiTweet.org

After 40 years, the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act (HR 299), will finally extend benefits to upwards of 90,000 Vietnam-era veterans suffering from illnesses caused by exposure to Agent Orange. Finally, we begin to right this wrong. https://t.co/IgURQ9Oiw2 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s threat of mass deportations just hours before his 2020 campaign launch is a sad attempt to score political points at the expense of refugees. Instead of sowing fear & division, he should work to produce real immigration reform & protect Dreamers. https://t.co/6zSi1TT2fy — PolitiTweet.org

4 months old. By the time Constantin was reunited with his family, he had spent the majority of his life in U.S. custody. This Administration’s cruel family separation policy is a stain on our nation. https://t.co/RhqZ3uulFr — PolitiTweet.org

The House already passed life-saving legislation to lower drug costs, but Mitch McConnell, the self-appointed ‘Grim Reaper’ of Dem bills, refuses to move the bill forward; leaving millions priced out of treatment. He has the power to fix this right now. https://t.co/jX78yZPgIU — PolitiTweet.org

Tonight at 7:00 PM, I’ll be joining @MSNBC’s @SteveKornacki for @Hardball. I look forward to discussing many of the important issues affecting the people and communities across Northern Ohio. Be sure to tune in! https://t.co/Fp7ybSZvpN — PolitiTweet.org

American workers have waited 3,614 days for a federal minimum wage increase – longer than any other time in US history - leaving many unable to fulfill basic needs despite working full time. They deserve fair pay for fair work. Congress must #RaiseTheWage. https://t.co/3rZ4oRxgnY — PolitiTweet.org

From lowering prescription drug costs to strengthening protection for pre-existing conditions, @HouseDemocrats have been passing healthcare bills at a record pace. The President and @SenateGOP have offered nothing but empty promises. https://t.co/xAVdNgXGEN — PolitiTweet.org

After Russia attacked our country and interfered in our 2016 election, President Trump is saying he would welcome such an effort once again. This is a threat to our democracy being openly invited by the President of the United States. This is unacceptable. https://t.co/WVFSqXla86 — PolitiTweet.org

We are so proud of everything Mitchell has accomplished and the sacrifices he and his family have made to keep our country and our community safe. — PolitiTweet.org

Mitchell graduated in 2013 from Central Catholic HS in Toledo before attending the U.S. Air Force Academy after earning his congressional nomination from my office that year. It is such an inspiration to see Mitchell’s high spirits in the face of a difficult treatment regimen. https://t.co/reROxauTzz — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I had the privilege of touring the National Intrepid Center of Excellence at Walter Reed Military Hospital in Bethesda Maryland, where I ran into 2nd Lt. Mitchell Cochell of the U.S. Air Force, his lovely wife Kirsi, and Sully H.W. Bush. https://t.co/PiLc0gYx8n — PolitiTweet.org

STEM skills are best learned at an early age, and this bill will help create a viable pipeline of intellectually prepared young people to serve in our nation’s Coast Guard as well as valuable careers in America’s innovation sector. https://t.co/Qme7o0aqLA — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

Today, I introduced legislation to improve STEM education for America’s young people and educators by strengthening collaboration between the U.S. Coast Guard and the Department of Education. https://t.co/vVuNJluMkW — PolitiTweet.org

Millions of retirees are at risk of losing their pensions if Congress fails to act on the multiemployer pension crisis. Today, @EdLaborCmte advanced legislation to protect both retirees & taxpayers. I look forward to supporting this important bill when it goes to the House floor. https://t.co/1qU4tKMlkk — PolitiTweet.org

Since Sept 11, 2001, thousands of 9/11 responders have become ill & died from exposure to burning chemicals & toxins in the air at Ground Zero. It’s time we renew & make permanent the 9/11 victims compensation fund to ensure these brave men & women receive the care they deserve. https://t.co/L4dPSeQ6gq — PolitiTweet.org

I’m deeply concerned by President Trump’s proposal to dramatically rollback pollution standards for emissions – and I’m not alone in that concern. The world’s largest automakers are calling on the President to cancel his sweeping deregulatory efforts. https://t.co/MPvH8C1Z2a — PolitiTweet.org

EPA has selected Cuyahoga County Land Reutilization Corp for funding to focus on neighborhoods across the Cleveland area, helping Cuyahoga County clean up, and reuse brownfields, areas where a hazardous substance or pollutant is present or could become present. https://t.co/FmQQCSALHa — PolitiTweet.org

“The advantages were theirs. Concrete gun emplacements. Gun nests w/ crossfire taking every inch of the beach. Buried mines, barbed wire. Whole fields of devices under the water to catch our boats & 4 men on shore for every 3 we had. And yet, we got on." https://t.co/h1q6u6JLXH — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we honor the soldiers & airmen who selflessly stormed the beaches of Normandy 75 years ago. Their sacrifices gave the Allies a toehold at the edge of Europe, a victory that set us on the path to secure freedom not only for Europe, but the entire world. 🇺🇸#DDay75 https://t.co/9RaBX7OJHf — PolitiTweet.org

Bringing back Postal Banking is a commonsense step in the right direction to help thousands of underbanked families in our own community. Let's make it happen. https://t.co/R6wM24Hy5U — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

While traditional banks are linked to population density and centers of economic growth, Post Offices can still be easily found in ‘bank deserts.’ 59% percent of post offices are in zip codes with either zero or only one traditional bank branch. https://t.co/M5w2i5DmlQ — PolitiTweet.org

Marcy Kaptur @RepMarcyKaptur

One solution is the creation of a public banking option administered by the U.S. Postal Service. With 35,000 Post Offices spread across our country, thousands of brick & mortar branches already exist. They're local, accessible, and familiar to communities. https://t.co/QIBvCo2HOT — PolitiTweet.org

19% of Cleveland households have no checking or savings account. 24% are underbanked, forced to use payday loan firms & currency exchange stores to cash paychecks or make loans. Cuyahoga County’s underbanked pop. is greater than that of the entire state. https://t.co/R6wM24Hy5U — PolitiTweet.org

The damage from Trump’s trade war w/ Mexico will go far beyond Corona & Avocados. Our auto workers will be punished & consumers will see vehicle costs go up >$3,000. American workers & consumers can't afford Trump's two-front trade war with Mexico & China. https://t.co/5aQqjCrIzH — PolitiTweet.org

House passage of H.R. 6, the American Dream and Promise Act, offers a way forward to citizenship for immigrants who have lived in and called the United States home for decades, many since they were children. Honored to support America’s newest Dreamers. https://t.co/MSTF69CQb2 — PolitiTweet.org

Success! Pleased to secure nearly $30 million in federal funds to rebuild the seawalls at Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial in @PUT_IN_BAY in this year’s Dept of @Interior funding bill. Now, on to the House floor! @PerrysVIPM https://t.co/0aAIlPRHR2 — PolitiTweet.org
