From U..S. SENATOR JON HUSTED
Of course, constructive conversations are part of customer service. So is action. My team and I are committed to coming alongside any Ohioan who needs help navigating a challenge that involves a federal agency. We’ve already helped Ohioans resolve some of these casework issues successfully, and I’ve even personally called the administration to go to bat for individuals who needed immediate assistance.
Where I land on policy always depends on how it affects people in Ohio. I’m working with my colleagues to cut spending; to extend tax breaks for families, workers, and job creators; to secure our borders; to empower American energy; and to strengthen our national security. With the passage of a bicameral budget plan, Republicans have already made more progress on bringing fiscal sanity to the federal budget than a lot of people expected.
I’ve also helped pass a bill, the HALT Fentanyl Act, to give law enforcement better tools to fight the fentanyl crisis, which stole the lives of more than 3,500 Ohioans in 2023 alone. Our work isn’t over, but this step will help save lives.
And I am prioritizing bringing Ohio’s work ethic and common sense to Washington. I began my time in the Capitol by authoring a bill that would leverage AI to streamline the 180,000-page code of federal regulations. My bill takes a page out of Ohio’s playbook to simplify regulations that make life harder for everyday people and the businesses that write their paychecks.
It’s an honor to have the chance to serve the nearly 11.9 million people who call Ohio home as their voice in the Senate during these last 100 days. Whether it’s organizing tours, delivering flags, or standing alongside Ohioans when they are working with federal agencies, customer service will always be key in my commitment to them. I hope they’ll continue to share with me their hopes, their values, and their insights on how my team can serve them better.
