Steve Stivers’ Job Fair Draws Big Crowd, Protests Too
Hundreds of job seekers were joined by a small group of protesters as a Central Ohio congressman sponsored a job fair in Columbus. Most were looking for ‘Help Wanted’ signs. 15th district congressman Steve Stivers shook hands and talked up job seekers as they lined up at an OSU campus building. The republican congressman says he sponsored the job fair to help unemployed constituents. “We have a jobs crisis, that’s what today’s about and we have a debt crisis,” Stivers said. “And we need to address both things.” Inside, Randy Stillings was ...
Democrat From Athens Will Challenge Steve Stivers in Ohio
Athens Law Director Pat Lang (D) announced Wednesday he will run in Ohio’s 15th district, where freshman Rep. Steve Stivers (R) filed to seek re-election. “We can do better,” Lang said in a statement. “We can start by ensuring a strong middle class, protecting Medicare for seniors and creating jobs. That’s why I’m running for Congress.” Lang’s campaign is an uphill venture in the redrawn district, which sprawls from West Columbus to Lang’s home county near the West Virginia border. ...

Rep. Stivers isn’t killing babies
In a new ad campaign, Environment Ohio accuses Republican Congressman Steve Stivers of voting to kill babies. In addition to being over the top, the ad spotlights an increasingly unhinged and politicized environmental movement. The ad, which shows a baby being spoon-fed dioxin, arsenic and mercury, has a voiceover that asserts that Stivers voted to “gut the Clean Air Act” and to “let polluters release toxins that cause cancer, asthma, heart attacks and even death. Zooming in on the baby, the voiceover says, “And some of these deaths would be very early.” What ...

Approaching $20 Trillion in Debt, Time for a Balanced Budget Amendment We are quickly approaching a national debt of $20 trillion in our country, and unfortunately, the federal government has managed to balance the budget only five times in my lifetime. If we continue spending at these levels, we will leave our children and grandchildren with the burden of dealing with a mountain of debt. In fact, each citizen currently owns over $61,000 of our debt – and that number continues to rise as no action is taken. Additionally, borrowing at these levels from foreign countries like China puts the United States in a more vulnerable position at the international level. There is no doubt, Washington has a spending problem that needs fixed – and both sides of the aisle acknowledge this issue. I believe the best way to rein in the out of control spending and get control of our national debt is to pass a bipartisan Balanced Budget Amendment to the United States Constitution. The idea is simple: American families have to balance their monthly budgets to bec |
USDA Announces Rural Business Development Grant for the Village of Somerset The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) recently announced they have awarded a Rural Business Development Grant to the Village of Somerset. This grant, which totals over $169,000, will be used to support existing and emerging rural businesses to grow in Somerset’s historic downtown.

Additionally, the grant supports small businesses by providing technical assistance to streamline Somerset’s business permitting process, establish design standards, and market local businesses. This is part of the larger, collaborative effort between Somerset, Perry County and communities across Southeastern Ohio to revitalize communities, grow to |
Continuing to Combat the Opioid Epidemic It has been said time and time again: our nation is fighting an opioid epidemic. This epidemic is plaguing communities across the country, and it is not discriminating against any gender, economic class or race. It is relentless, claiming a life every ten minutes in the United States, and we all must come together to combat it. Recently, I have had the opportunity to meet with many individuals and organizations who are doing just that; they are actively engaged in recovery and treatment, as well as education and prevention. Last month, I hosted my annual Opiate Roundtable, which brought together law enforcement officials, medical professionals, recovery centers, and prevention specialists to discuss how we can combat this epidemic moving forward. A highlight of the event was hearing from Judge Fred Moses, who has been a pioneer in the creation and expansion of vivitrol drug courts, which has been an excellent tool in recovery and treatment for Hocking |
Statement from Congressman Steve Stivers The following can be attributed to Congressman Steve Stivers (R-OH): "Today's announcement puts the power back with Congress, where it belongs. Congress has six months to take action to create a permanent, legal and orderly immigration system - which includes addressing DACA recipients. “While we are a nation of immigrants, we are also a nation of laws. Moving forward, I support a legislative solution to fix our broken immigration system and facilitate economic growth." -30- |
