Under HUD's proposed Continuum of Care Notice of Funding Opportunity, 10k Ohioans — families, children, veterans, and more — will lose their homes. Today, I confronted Sec. Turner about this drastic policy shift — he couldn't answer me. It's clear: the Trump Admin is worsening the housing crisis.

Trump’s effort to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook is a power grab that threatens Fed independence and Americans’ economic security.

Today, I stood with Ranking Member Maxine Waters and House Democrats at the Supreme Court ahead of oral arguments on Trump’s attempt to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook. Our economy depends on an independent Fed guided by data, not political pressure, to protect businesses and family budgets.

Last year, Ohioans paid $1,532 more due to Trump's inflation. Trump promised to “bring down costs." Last week, he even claimed that “inflation is defeated" — but a year into his presidency, Ohioans are paying the price of his affordability crisis. When will he start prioritizing our families?

I was honored to join the City of Columbus' Annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day March and Program, in the spirit of Dr. King's march towards justice and equality. In these trying times, Dr. King's message inspires us to keep the fight, engage in our communities, and raise our voice for common change.

I was honored to join Columbus leaders and introduce the keynote speaker at this morning’s 41st Annual Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Breakfast. In our ongoing fight for Ohio's working families, I'm proud to have celebrated Dr. King's legacy with my community, while honoring the work that lies ahead.

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Ohio! May Dr. King's wisdom guide us through this new year and all the years to come, as we continue the fight for health care, voting rights, and justice for all.

Trump is prioritizing his own self-interests over national security. As a member of FSC Democrats, I will always advocate for mechanisms to keep our financial system safe from fraud and corruption.

An independent Fed is CRITICAL to our economy and the household finances of Americans. Trump's weaponization of DOJ to take control of the Fed threatens YOUR bank account.

Chair Powell has served with honor and integrity, and I stand with him in his commitment to keep the Fed independent.

ICE cannot operate in our communities unchecked. Operation Buckeye, ICE’s Columbus enforcement operation, is terrorizing many immigrant and refugee families and hurting our economy.

I’m demanding transparency and accountability for our community.

Tonight, the House passed the ACA tax credit extension. It's a major win for affordable health care.

But Republicans fought us every step of the way, and the fight isn't over.
