New Video Highlights Senator Portman’s Work in August Across Ohio
During the August state work period, Senator Portman traveled more than 4,000 miles and visited 39 different counties in Ohio, completing his goal of visiting all 88 Ohio counties during this term.
Sad to hear that @OhioStateFB legend and @HeismanTrophy winner Howard “Hopalong” Cassady has passed away at the age of 85. His achievements on the gridiron and the baseball field made #Ohio proud, and he will be missed.
Combined, the 9 agencies that received letters employ about half of the federal workforce, meaning that the actual cost to American taxpayers of the recent government shutdowns is likely much higher due to a greater amount of back pay and additional associated costs.
Today @SenatorCarper & I, as Ranking Member & Chair of #PSI sent 9 letters to the fed. agencies that didn't provide govt shutdown cost data. We raised serious concerns about the capacity of those agencies to oversee their operations & implement basic accounting system
