It is an honor to recognize those who do so much for our community. I am happy to have presented this years Congressional Community Service Award to Jenell Ross. Whether through her business, her philanthropy or her service to organizations across our community, Jenell has always understood that leadership comes with a responsibility to help others. I’m proud to recognize her for the extraordinary difference she has made.

More than fifty years ago, as one of the deadliest storms in our region’s history closed in on Xenia, Gil Whitney, a local @whiotv weatherman, identified the imminent danger and took action to warn his neighbors. Folks in Xenia still remember that warning and the lives Gil saved. Naming the Xenia post office after him ensures that the community he protected will always remember the heroism he showed when it mattered most. It was a privilege to stand beside two of Gil’s children with Xenia and Greene County leadership to honor a man who saved so many lives in our community.

Rep. Mike Turner says Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s explanation about Ukraine’s loss of Starlink access as something that “sort of happened” was “absolutely not” sufficient. “This is something where there needs to be an investigation, there needs to be a congressional investigation,” Turner (R-OH) tells @margbrennan, adding, “lives are at risk, and lives are lost over these things.”

People deserve the opportunity to earn a good paycheck and the security of knowing the pension they worked for will be there when they retire. That's what I'm fighting for.

🚨I will be on @FaceTheNation with @margbrennan this morning, tune in!

SUNDAY: We'll check in on Ohio Republican Congressman Mike Turner about how the 2026 campaign is playing in his state. PLUS — the latest on the Trump administration's strategy on Russia and Ukraine. Tune in, 10:30 a.m. ET.

Since 1775, our U.S. Navy sailors have defended our nation, protected global sea lanes, and answered the call around the world. To every sailor serving today, every veteran, and every family that supports them, thank you. Happy Birthday to the U.S. Navy. 🇺🇸

Today is World Mental Health Day, but it important to remember everyday that no one should have to struggle in silence. Check in on your loved ones, and if you or someone you know is in crisis call or text 988 and reach out. Find resources: dbh.ohio.gov/get-help/learn-…

As opportunities grow within the base, so do the opportunities outside the fence. Wright-Patterson Air Force Base contributes to much more than our national defense. These investments create thousands of jobs and bring billions of dollars to our region, strengthening our community and providing opportunity.

Energy independence is critical to our economic and national security. I have long supported an all-of-the-above approach to domestic energy production. Through strengthening strategic partnerships with key allies and lifting unreasonable restrictions on energy production we can help grow both our workforce and economy.

The sky is no longer the limit in the birthplace of aviation! Wright-Patt serves as an integral part of both our local community and our national security, and continues to grow. From a new Advanced Materials Research Laboratory, a new Space Force intelligence facility, to potentially becoming the home of the nations newest service academy; the United States Space Academy. As the base grows our security is strengthened as well as our community. Learn more about my work on WPAFB: turner.house.gov/issues/wrig…

The number of jobs at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base has nearly doubled during my time in Congress, and the base continues to grow. That growth attracts additional jobs and investment outside the fence. Wright-Patterson is the economic engine of our region and an instrumental asset to our national security.

This year marks 100 years of Kettering Health Dayton (formally Grandview Hospital) providing vital medical care to our community. Join me in congratulating them on this significant milestone. Read my full statement here: daytondailynews.com/communit…

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. About 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime, and early detection remains one of the strongest tools we have. I encourage you to get regular screenings and stay healthy.

Aviation is part of who we are as a community, and Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is an economic engine that continues to drive our region’s growth. As Ohio’s largest single-site employer, the base supports more than 38,000 jobs and generates an estimated $16.68 billion in annual economic impact across the region. We remain committed to building on that success and investing in the base’s continued growth. See my work on WPAFB here: turner.house.gov/issues/wrig…

We can not allow Russian aggression to succeed in Europe. Our adversaries are watching closely, and hope our resolve will diminish. Putin’s murderous war against the Ukrainian people has not broken apart the free people of the world, it has deepened our ties further.

This has always been about keeping a promise to the Delphi salaried retirees who earned these pensions through years of work. I’ve been proud to stand with them, and I’ll keep pushing until that promise is finally kept. 🔗daytondailynews.com/tncms/as…

Part of what makes and keeps America strong is our allies. My meeting with German Minister of Defense, Boris Pistorius underscores the strong relationship between our nations. 🇺🇸 🤝 🇩🇪

⚙ Today is Manufacturing Day, and the Dayton region has always been a place that makes things. From the cash register and the pop-top can to the airplane and countless other innovations, our region has helped shape the way America lives and works. Manufacturing has changed, but its importance to our regional and national economy has not. Today, we celebrate the makers, craftsmen, and manufacturers who carry that legacy forward and are building the next generation of American innovation.
