  • More than 15,600 gas stations on East Coast out of fuel

    Friday, May 14, 2021 6:42 PM
    Despite the nation’s largest pipeline being back up and running following a cyber attack last week, more than 15,600 gas stations are still without gas. Colonial Pipeline was left unable to transport fuel from Texas to states along the eastern seaboard for nearly a week as a result of the attack, causing long lines at many gas stations.

    Portman cautions against Biden’s tax hikes
    Friday, May 14, 2021 4:41 PM
    “The centerpiece of the Biden plan are corporate tax increases that would raise the combined federal and state corporate rate from an average of 25.8 percent – that’s the 21 percent federal rate plus the average of the state income tax for corporations. 25.8 percent, by the way, is above the average of the OECD – the developed countries of the world." – Sen. Portman

    Impacting the lives of people on Medicare

    Communities of strength. This powerful wording is the national theme for Older American Month this May. As we celebrate older Ohioans, let's recognize something they know well. The power of connection and engagement builds stronger communities. The community of people. The community of place.

    Time to modernize telehealth policy
    Thursday, May 13, 2021 12:12 PM
    Telehealth is here to stay. We must take appropriate steps to remove the barriers that exist for patients who seek care in this format. This legislation will complement the Telehealth Modernization Act that aims to provide Medicare beneficiaries with continued access to the lifesaving capabilities of telehealth services.
