On July 30 the Senate came one vote short of forcing a debate on Trump's unauthorized war with Iran. These 13 Republican senators we track voted no — a week after the House told the president to get out.
Ohio Sen. Jon Husted has voted no on all 13 Senate votes this year on resolutions to pull U.S. forces out of Iran — while oil companies making record profits off that war put $220,000 behind his reelection.
Not one Republican in Congress voted for the American Rescue Plan. Then they put out press releases bragging about the money it sent home. Malliotakis, Van Duyne, and Balderson all did it — and later voted against refilling the fund they told restaurants to apply for.
H.R. 899 is one sentence long. But abolishing the Department of Education is only the loud part of the plan — the quiet part is a new, uncapped federal tax credit that drains public school money into private and religious schools.
Sen. Bernie Moreno — Miller's former father-in-law — broke his silence and said Miller should not serve in Congress. He spoke after Miller went live to attack his ex-wife's mental health, offer his account of the hot water incident, and promise to stay on the ballot.
A new analysis puts a number on Ramaswamy's promise to roll property taxes back to pre-pandemic levels: $4 billion a year in his first budget, $6.6 billion a year in his second. His plan to pay for it is growing Ohio's population by 26%.
Asked on CNN whether Rep. Max Miller should resign over his ex-wife's abuse allegations, Jordan called it a family matter and said he hopes Miller wins. Weeks earlier he went after a Democrat facing similar accusations. And 30 years ago, wrestlers say he looked away too.
The Democratic Women's Caucus publicly asked the House Ethics Committee to investigate Miller. A Republican colleague says he should resign if the allegations are true, Ohio's governor calls them troubling — and his ex-wife's lawyers just filed for a restraining order against him.
As Ohio House speaker, Husted stripped the one-year window that would have let survivors of clergy sexual abuse sue after their deadline had passed. Survivors filled the Statehouse halls. He took a side door into the chamber, and they sued him for meeting behind closed doors.
