Sherrod at Work

• President Biden signed the bipartisan infrastructure package into law, which will create jobs that cannot be shipped abroad, and includes a long list of benefits for Ohio.
  
  
  • Funding to repair and replace bridges throughout the state -- 3,200 Ohio bridges are eligible, including the Brent Spence bridge
  • Expands broadband to at least 259,000 Ohioans who don’t have access
  • Includes the strongest Buy America rules ever -- to ensure these projects use American materials made by American workers
  • Helps communities expand bus and rail service, and transition to pollution-free buses 
  • Supports Great Lakes restoration

• Sherrod introduced a bill that would strengthen our country’s supply chain with support for small- to medium-sized manufacturers to expand production in the U.S. and reduce our reliance on long supply chains abroad that are causing delays and raising material costs.

News from Ohio

• Gov. Mike DeWine signed into law new Ohio congressional maps that are heavily gerrymandered in Republicans politicians’ favor, despite the fact Ohioans twice voted for a fair, nonpartisan redistricting process.

• Endorsement Alert: Sherrod endorsed Rep. Tim Ryan to be Ohio’s next U.S. senator and Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley to be Ohio’s next governor. 

In Case You Missed It

• Last week, the Supreme Court began hearing a case that is considered the most serious challenge to Roe v. Wade in 30 years. The case considers a restrictive Mississippi law and could dismantle access to reproductive health care nationwide. 

• A recent Bloomberg article reveals corporate profits are at their highest in over 70 years -- despite corporate complaints about workers' wages, and recent price-hikes. Sherrod spoke to Yahoo! Finance about the need for corporations to lower prices and raise pay. 

“The idea that these corporations can't afford to pay workers higher wages, wages that actually reflect the value of the work they do to make these companies profitable, is ridiculous.” 
- Sen. Sherrod Brown
