Get our troops, Veteran's Counselors, and federal workers paid!
You've had a bipartisan bill sponsored by GOP member H.R.5401 since September 16th to take action on but you're on vacation, again.

We're over a week into the government shutdown and Republicans are still refusing to lower healthcare costs for Ohioans.

They've put 490,000 Ohioans at risk of losing healthcare completely.

Dems are standing up for you.

Ohio needs representatives in Congress who have the experience and backbone to speak out and take action against this type of illegality.

The Trump administration is ignoring the advice of Judge Advocate General officers as it pursues illegal activation of the National Guard and attacks on alleged drug-running boats without evidence. I was a JAG officer and was one of many fired by Pete Hegseth because we would stand up

Only the military remains outside Trump’s grip. Despite the firing of several top officers—and his threat to fire more—the U.S. armed forces are still led by generals and admirals whose oath is to the Constitution, not the president. But for how long?
