Once again, federal investments are paying off for NW Ohio. @BGSU’s Shallow Run Watershed Project is showing progress to improve Lake Erie water quality. Led by Dr. Jay Martin, this partnership of farmers, researchers, and local leaders proves new practices can cut runoff and

Let the record show that the Trump Administration is all too willing to let polluters off the hook for exposing our communities to hazardous waste.

When the Trump Administration cuts clean energy programs, it raises household electricity bills, eliminates clean energy jobs, and releases toxic pollution into our communities. It doesn’t make energy more affordable, and it doesn’t help your energy bill.

Let's be clear: @EPALeeZeldin is boasting about cutting congressionally-approved funds that would support solar projects for over 900,000 lower-income households. Instead, we will now create less jobs, and energy costs go up for millions of Americans. (1/3)

The VA & EPA have torn up their union contracts, gutting workers’ rights, threatening veterans’ care, and endangering our environment.  This authoritarian union-busting is an assault on democracy and working people. We must fight back. We stand with AFGE

Electric and alternative fuel vehicles help reduce greenhouse gas emissions to address the threat of climate change, while also helping drivers save hundreds or even thousands of dollars in gas money annually. We should be incentivizing their use. Today I was proud to introduce

Cutting NASA is a loss for science, exploration, and jobs. I’m honored to represent Ohio, the birthplace of aviation, which helped send American astronauts to the stars above. This will devastate @NASAGlenn facilities in northern Ohio and the local communities they help support!

The San Fernando Valley deserves to have clean air to breathe and a climate free from pollution. I joined U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor and Paul Tonko in urging the EPA to REJECT its rollback of greenhouse gas emissions standards and protect public health in communities like ours. Read the

We celebrated a game-changing solar installation at a local and impactful glassworks, Annieglass. This is a perfect example of how federal investment can deliver local results. Through bipartisan legislation, we were able to work with the Department of Energy to help secure a

The Trump admin is cutting off funding that supports WA salmon recovery. I’m joining WA Democrats urging Interior Secretary Burgum to restore the $1.3M that supports this work. Let’s protect WA’s habitat, communities, & heritage.

The Mendenhall Glacier in Alaska—which has existed for thousands of years—is melting. So much so, that the National Weather Service issued a flood warning and Alaskans are already evacuating their homes. We must pass serious climate reform, before climate change comes for us.

When President Trump fires disaster experts and scientists, dismantles disaster preparedness programs, and denies or delays aid, it puts American lives at risk. I led more than 80 of my colleagues in demanding that he reinstate disaster response staff and programs:

Since the 1800s, Oak Flat in Arizona has been a protected sacred site to over nine indigenous tribes. Yet Trump wants to hand over this 2,400 acres of public land to private mining company Resolution Copper. Join Rep. Melanie Stansbury and me and stand against this public lands sell

Climate change and invasive species are killing our fish and fishing businesses in Lake Michigan. My bill, the Great Lakes Fishery Research Reauthorization Act, will fund scientific research to stop these threats. Natural Resources Democrats House of Reps. SEEC chicagotribune.com/2025/08/17/gre…

Secretary Chris Wright of the U.S. Department of Energy said Republicans are ‘going to get blamed’ for rising electricity prices. Mr. Wright is right—Republicans will be blamed, because they are responsible. Here’s three reasons why Republican policies have caused your energy bills to go up by

Chicago is one of the most dangerous cities for birds. My new bill will help change that, by requiring all federal buildings to use bird-safe materials nationwide. nytimes.com/2025/05/20/cli…

On my way to the Upper Peninsula in Michigan to tour the Soo Locks — a major artery for all of the goods that flow from ports across the Great Lakes region. From Duluth, to Toledo, to Buffalo, and beyond — this funding I delivered is helping communities across our Great Lakes

The new Soo Locks with 21st century technology and greater depth will be a major win for our Great Lakes region, allowing our ports expanded access to global markets. Upon completion, this will be the first new Lock in Sault St. Marie in over 60 years.

Eight months into my term as a U.S. Representative, I understand a simple truth: you can’t legislate from behind a desk. To make informed, effective policy on wildfire preparedness, forest health, and public lands, you must walk the land, sometimes stumble over its roots, and
