Always appreciate Legislators meeting with the Tri-State’s Labor Leaders, to share their ideas and listen to our concerns and opinions about how to best support Labor issues.

Thank you Congressman Taylor.

This morning I held a roundtable discussion in Portsmouth with the Tri-State Building Trades to talk about the needs they’re seeing in our local workforce.

In Congress, I’m working to bolster economic development across our Buckeye communities and support the creation of well-paying jobs for skilled Ohio workers.

A strong community starts with access to local jobs, and I’ll continue advocating for our local trades as they meet critical needs in our region.
