Broadband access

Southern Ohio exists in a broadband desert, which is why expanding broadband access is one of my top priorities in Congress. Without broadband, our communities are at risk of falling behind in the modern economy.

Commercial trucking safety

Every commercial vehicle on our nation’s highways should be operated by a driver who is following the rules, not a bad actor hiding behind inactive or illegitimate USDOT numbers. The REVOKE Act will give the Department of Transportation the tools it needs to shut down this dangerous practice, keep unqualified and unsafe operators off American roads, and prevent needless tragedies caused by reckless and unqualified CDL drivers.
