US Rep. Mike Turner

The news of Senator Lindsey Graham’s passing saddens me deeply. Lindsey was one of America’s fiercest champions for freedom, democracy, and peace through strength. He carried forward the legacy of Senator John McCain, believing America’s leadership is indispensable and that nations seeking freedom should never stand alone. Lindsey was also a personal mentor. His counsel shaped my work in Congress, and despite his many responsibilities, he always made time to help others. I saw that firsthand when preparing for the 2025 NATO Parliamentary Assembly in Dayton. The summit welcomed more than 2,500 delegates from across the Alliance, and it would not have been possible without Lindsey’s personal intervention and support. That generosity toward fellow members was simply who he was. Just days ago, I had the honor of standing beside Lindsey in Ankara as we met with President Zelenskyy. Until his final days, he was pressing the case for stronger sanctions against Russia. There is no better way to honor his final mission than for the Senate and the White House to swiftly send his bipartisan Russia sanctions legislation to the President’s desk. Lindsey believed America must stand with nations seeking democracy because doing so strengthens our own security. We owe it to his legacy to ensure that commitment remains the foundation of American foreign policy. My prayers are with Lindsey’s family, his staff, the people of South Carolina, and all who knew him. America has lost a great statesman, and I have lost a mentor. His legacy will endure wherever freedom is defended. @LindseyGrahamSC

You can be America First and still understand that it doesn’t have to be America Alone. America’s voice is important and our allies want that voice. @LindseyGrahamSC was someone who wasn’t afraid to stand up and say, ‘You’re not alone. America is with you.’ 🇺🇸 @FaceTheNation @margbrennan Watch the full interview here: youtube.com/watch?v=yupYFu…

While Temporary Protected Status for Haitians has been extended for at least another two weeks after it was set to expire on Friday, Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) tells @margbrennan the Haitians living in Springfield, Ohio, are “valuable people in our community.” He adds, “We certainly hope that they can stay and be able to contribute to our communities.”

GOP Rep. Mike Turner of Ohio said Sunday that he's hopeful the Senate will soon pass a Russia sanctions bill as "one of the legacies" of Sen. Lindsey Graham, a staunch backer of stricter Russia sanctions who died suddenly Saturday. cbsn.ws/4gvD0qF

After the death of Sen. Lindsey Graham, Rep. Mike Turner, who met with Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy alongside Graham this past week, tells @margbrennan he hopes the Senate will move forward Graham’s bipartisan Russian sanctions bill as “one of the legacies” of the South Carolina congressman. “What's so sad about losing Lindsey is that in this debate now that we have, of ‘America first,’ you can be America first and still understand that it doesn't have to be America alone,” Turner (R-OH) says.

Congratulations to @DragonsBaseball for winning first place in two categories for the Best of Dayton! Best Attraction and Best Family Fun Destination. The stadium was built during my time as mayor and I am so proud to see what the stadium and the team has come to mean for our community. @daytondailynews Article: daytondailynews.com/local/best-of-…

As Governor DeWine has said, as I have said, as other members of Congress have said, the basis of the temporary status was that Haiti was and continues to be a dangerous place. They have been woven into the fabric of our community; many have jobs or have started businesses and they are contributing.

Together with @SenatorShaheen, @SenatorRounds, @SenatorDurbin, @LindseyGrahamSC, and @ChrisCoons, we released this statement following our meeting with Ukrainian President @ZelenskyyUa at the 2026 @NATO Summit.

In June, I wrote to President Trump, highlighting Ukraine’s urgent need for domestic Patriot missile interceptor production so they can better defend their people against Russia’s relentless missile bombardment. Today, at the NATO Summit in Ankara, President @realDonaldTrump granted Ukraine the licensing for domestic production. As Russia intensifies its attacks on civilians and critical infrastructure, this decision will help save countless innocent lives as they push back Russian aggression.

All the details that were shared with us do appear to be promising with regard to the S-400 and F-35. turkiyetoday.com/nation/f-35-s-…

Wright-Patt remains a cornerstone of our national defense and our region's economy.

This funding is an important step forward in advancing its intelligence mission. Article: wdtn.com/news/local-new…

After increased community complaints, three officers will be stationed downtown at the RTA hub. Among the recommendations made by the Downtown Dayton Working Group that I established, was creating a dedicated police presence at the downtown RTA hub. This $1.5 million agreement between @GDRTA and @DaytonPolice provides safety and security for RTA riders, visitors, and patrons of downtown businesses alike. @daytondailynews Article: daytondailynews.com/local/dayton-p…

The basis on which temporary status was granted was that where they come from is dangerous. Haiti remains a dangerous place. They are contributing. They have jobs, and that needs to be honored. They have made the transition into our community and have become part of the fabric of our community. They were here legally. @CNN @TheLeadCNN

The CCP is not a responsible actor and cannot be trusted. This recent ballistic missile test and the rapid expansion of their nuclear arsenal make it clear that China is undertaking the largest military buildup of any nation in the world. The United States and our allies must stand strong against authoritarianism. @CNN Article: cnn.com/2026/07/06/chi…

🇺🇸 Our country was built on freedom and it is freedom that allows us to keep building and chasing the American Dream.
