🎃 Trick or treat! Wishing everyone in #OH13 a safe, spooky, and fun Halloween. Hope your night is filled with good costumes, delicious candy, and maybe just a little bit of fright. 👻

Check out Akron’s newest addition! This beautiful sculpture is the work of internationally renowned artist Chakaia Booker and is a testament to the beauty and strength of our community.

Thanks to Republicans, this Halloween is spooky for all the wrong reasons.

I was proud to tour the Twinsburg Army Reserve Center and meet with the dedicated service members who work hard every day to support our national defense and serve our communities

Every person deserves to live free from fear and violence. I’m committed to standing with survivors and delivering real solutions that help them rebuild their lives.

I joined the Domestic Violence Project, Inc. for Take Back the Night in Canton. During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I’m honoring the courage of the survivors who share their stories, and thank DVPI and its partner agencies for the work they do every day to keep Stark County families safe.

Law enforcement officials are trusted members of our communities. Abuse of Flock cameras and similar tools by law enforcement officers to stalk victims without their knowledge will not be tolerated.

📣 Medicare Open Enrollment is here!

If you have Medicare, now is the time to review your coverage and make sure your plan still meets your needs. You can compare plans, explore your options, and find coverage that works best for you.

I hosted the 2nd Women in Leadership Conference and a time was had! Thank you to everyone who showed up, participated in important conversations, and plotted the path to changing our communities for the better through more women in leadership.

Don’t forget! Today is the last day to submit for the 2026 Congressional App Challenge. Learn more at sykes.house.gov.

I toured Cleveland Clinic Mercy in Canton and joined a roundtable with Susan G. Komen, doctors, and patient advocates to talk about how we can get more Ohioans timely breast cancer screening. Thank you to Dr. Elizabeth Russ, Dr. Megan Kruse, and the patient advocates who shared their stories.

My team has helped many individuals just like Debby cut through red tape to get nearly $15 million in tax returns that were being held up by the IRS. If you need help with the IRS, or any federal agency, contact my office today at 330-400-5350. #WeWorkForYou

Proud to join the Green Harvest Capital as The Standard on Main becomes Vine on Main. This is a local company investing in downtown Akron, and it’s bringing affordable housing close to hospitals, employers, and the University of Akron.

Ohioans can’t afford Republican policies that drive up costs, all while putting more money in the pockets of billionaires.

I’m still thinking about the 2nd Women in Leadership Conference at the Akron Art Museum!

I joined leaders at the Greater Stark County Urban League for a candid conversation about what keeps people from entering and staying in the workforce. Transportation, housing, and childcare are real barriers, and I’m committed to working to support people aspiring to enter the workforce.
