"Go to all your hearings. Come early, stay late. Do your homework. do national press. Be accessible to your state media and to your constituents."

Damn. I miss Al

Less than 48 hours after being sworn into office, Rep. Brown supported passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, bringing jobs to Northeast Ohio, improving public transportation, delivering clean water to families, and expanding access to high-speed internet.

-Brown supported passage of the Build Back Better Act, and has repeatedly called for its passage in the Senate, specifically noting the importance of an extension of the Child Tax Credit for families in her district

-Brown has introduced two new bills to improve access to school meals for students and enroll more veterans in preventative health programs through the VA

-Brown has cosponsored more than 50 bills, including legislation to protect Ohio workers against unfair trade practices, raise the minimum wage, give Medicare the ability to negotiate prescription drug prices, and strengthen and protect social security for generations to come
