#SmallBusinessWeek is a good reminder just how important our work on the Pensions Committee to solve the multiemployer pension plan crisis is.
And it isn’t just retirees who will feel the pain. #SmallBiz are at risk of collapsing if they end up on the hook for pension liability they can’t afford to pay.
I have spent time with Ohio #smallbiz who have done everything right, but are being punished because their business thrived while so many of their competitors failed. We cannot allow these plan to fail and take thousands of businesses and jobs with them. -SB

Today's Ohio #BlackHistory 🧵

Cleveland's own Garrett Morgan, a prolific African-American inventor.

Most known for inventing the gas mask and traffic signal, and his heroic role in saving the lives of workers trapped underground.
In 1916, Cleveland workers drilling a tunnel under Lake Erie became trapped in toxic fumes following a huge gas explosion.

After two previous failed rescue attempts, Mr. Morgan and his brother stepped in, using his gas masks to rescue two workers and recover four bodies.
Despite his heroism, it took years for the city to recognize his crucial role in the rescue.

Even when orders for his life-saving smoke hoods came pouring in from fire departments across the country, many canceled their purchases when they realized the inventor was a Black man.

Here's a thread of everything Trump, McConnell, and Senate Republicans should be doing to help Americans get through this pandemic -

INSTEAD of jamming through a Supreme Court nomination.
Rent relief.

Families are being kicked out of their homes during a pandemic.

Rent relief has been sitting on McConnell's desk for 5 months. #RentReliefNow

More stimulus checks.

In eight months, Americans have received just one $1,200 check.

There should be quarterly, $2,000 checks.

Imagine how much safer our country would be if every teacher could get an N95 mask.
Imagine how much safer our country would be if every bus driver could get an N95 mask.
Imagine how much safer our country would be if every health care worker could get an N95 mask.

⚠ THREAD -

We need to make it as easy as possible for Ohioans to cast their ballot SAFELY this November.

But Republicans are only making it harder for you to vote.
My colleagues and I called on Ohio Secretary of State LaRose to support providing more than one secure ballot drop box in each county.

Instead, he tried to block them.
cleveland.com/open/2020/09/o…
Today, a judge AGREED with us.

In his ruling, he said LaRose’s decision to limit drop boxes amid a pandemic and postal delays is “arbitrary and unreasonable.”

THREAD: If you don't believe it's within President Trump's character to denigrate the men and women of our armed forces,
 
you haven't been paying attention to the last four years.👇

President Trump called Senator John McCain, an American war hero, a "loser".
 
He said, "I like people who weren't captured.
President Trump attacked a Gold Star family, whose son Humayan paid the ultimate sacrifice for our country - with anti-Muslim bigotry.
