WASHINGTON, DC - Last night, the House voted on the FY2022 funding bill. This legislation includes over $35 million for projects in the greater Dayton community, which was secured by Congressman Mike Turner (OH-10). He made the following statement following its passage:

"This is a massive win for Ohio. These funds will create job growth in the community, support Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB), and improve our health care facilities.

Rep. Mike Turner (OH-10), the lead Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, released the following statement on Vladimir Putin's decision to invade Ukraine:

"Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine is an act of war that warrants a swift and crippling response from the United States and its allies. I stand with the people of Ukraine and continue to support providing arms and intelligence to the Ukrainian people so they can defend themselves. The Nord Stream 2 project must end now and forever. The US must also implement sanctions on Russian financial institutions and impose crippling penalties to hamstring the Russian economy," said Turner.

WASHINGTON, DC – Last night, Members of the House Intelligence committee who are participating in a normal committee event were requested to obtain a negative COVID test by Chairman Schiff. Today, Ranking Member Mike Turner (R-OH) sent a letter opposing Chairman Schiff's request and released the following statement:

"Americans who are caregivers for elderly loved ones worry about exposing their family members to COVID and do not have available testing options to protect them. The Biden Administration has failed to live up to its promises to ensure COVID testing is widely available to the public and did not prepare to respond to a surge due to variants like Omicron," said Turner.
