Data center energy costs

Bob Latta

The Ratepayer Protection Act ensures states can hold data centers responsible for their own energy costs, and hardworking American families aren't on the hook for the bill. One question should have a clear answer: Americans should not have to pay more for electricity so large technology companies can build and operate data centers.

Manufacturing and China

Bob Latta

For far too long, America has pioneered new inventions, only for Communist China to build the facilities—stealing the jobs that come with them. The BEDROCK Act would help reshore that work. This bipartisan legislation would create new opportunities for Ohio workers, strengthen the biomanufacturing supply chain, and make it easier for American manufacturers to produce at home.

Today, I voted in support of the Fiscal Year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act because a strong national defense is essential to a strong America. This legislation strengthens our military readiness and provides the funding needed to expand domestic production capacity, rebuild critical stockpiles, modernize shipyards, and grow our skilled defense workforce, supporting thousands of good-paying American jobs in the process.

This legislation protects American ratepayers from being forced to cover the cost of energy infrastructure upgrades needed to support data centers. I was proud to support this bipartisan legislation as we continue to strengthen America's leadership in the AI race against Communist China while ensuring hardworking families and local communities aren't left footing the bill.

But September 11 is also a day that reminds us of the extraordinary courage and strength of the American people. First responders ran into the burning buildings to save others. Ordinary Americans aboard Flight 93 made the ultimate sacrifice to stop the terrorists from causing even greater destruction. In the days that followed, Americans came together to support one another and demonstrated a patriotism and unity that will forever be a part of our nation’s story.

Today’s advancement of the STOP Nitazenes Act and Tyler’s Law out of committee is an important step forward in our efforts to save lives and confront the devastating impact of synthetic opioids in communities across the country. These bills will help ensure hospitals and health officials have the tools, data, and authorities they need to respond more effectively to overdoses and keep dangerous substances like nitazenes off our streets. I urge the House floor to take up this legislation immediately,
