Senator Jon Husted

What’s a Husted Huddle? A weekly way for me to meet face-to-face with as many Ohioans as possible while I’m serving them in Washington. I hope to hear from you on your next visit to our nation’s capital!

National Police Week is our time to honor the brave men and women in law enforcement who gave their lives while working to keep our communities safe.

The American financial system is the envy of the world and one of the drivers of our nation’s success. The CLARITY Act creates a trusted system with clear rules and consumer protections for cryptocurrency that will ensure our country continues to compete and win. I strongly support this bill and hope for quick passage in the Senate.

This has my full support. If you don’t get your work done, you don’t get paid. I’ve long believed that if hardworking Americans are missing paychecks because of a government shutdown, Members of Congress shouldn’t receive theirs either, which is why I’ve not taken pay during shutdowns this Congress.

These heroes gave their lives for their communities and neighbors. Please join me in honoring their service and celebrating their lives. You can watch my remarks on the Senate floor here: m.youtube.com/watch?v=7lD_my…

Trooper Nicholas Cayton was 40, married to his high school sweetheart, and the father of 2 children. Trooper Cayton was described as a devoted family man and a true public servant.   He was a 13-year veteran of the Ohio State Highway Patrol team and served for 7 years in the Ohio Army National Guard. Trooper Cayton was killed on October 16, 2025, when his cruiser was struck in Canfield while he was helping the driver of a disabled tractor-trailer.   We continue to mourn his loss and pray for all those who loved him.

It’s National Police Week, and I had the honor of recognizing 4 courageous Ohio law enforcement officers we lost in the line of duty in 2025 on the Senate floor. I want to share their stories here. ⬇️

I had the chance to visit Ohio Gratings and see their exceptional manufacturing operations firsthand.

It’s great to see Ohio companies contributing to @America250 and helping celebrate a time of unity, patriotism, and pride in our country.

Happy 513 Day, Cincinnati!   Today we celebrate the rich culture, strong communities, and local spirit that make the Queen City so special. From Skyline Chili to Graeter’s Ice Cream and the Cincinnati Reds, I hope all Cincinnatians take advantage of everything the 513 has to offer today!

Honored to meet with the crew of Artemis II today.    From @NASAglenn to the 57 Ohio companies who supported the mission’s supply chain, Ohio played a critical role in Artemis II’s success.

I agree.   The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act would cut red tape and unlock private investments to make housing more accessible and affordable for Americans.   Let’s get it done.

This National Police Week, we honor law enforcement officers for their service and sacrifice—and remember those who gave their lives in the line of duty.

Happy Mother’s Day to my wonderful mom, Judy, my wife Tina, and all mothers across Ohio and America.   Your love, strength, and endless sacrifices make the world a better place.

On this National Day of Prayer, I join Ohioans in lifting up our nation.     Prayer is powerful—it brings people together and strengthens our communities. Today, we recognize its importance in our daily lives.

When small businesses succeed, Ohio succeeds. It was great to be with small business owners in Upper Sandusky to talk about how they can continue thriving in our state.

I supported the Working Families @TaxCuts to deliver relief to millions of working families while making it easier for parents to stay in the workforce.   It’s the first permanent increase in the child and dependent care tax credit since 2001, putting more money back in families’ pockets.

America thrives on small business—and Ohio is leading the way. Great to be in Upper Sandusky today during National Small Business Week with Ohio small business owners who are seeing the direct results of the Working Families @TaxCuts.
