As someone who owned and operated manufacturing businesses in Ohio before coming to Congress, I know firsthand that our state's greatest asset is the hardworking, resilient, and dedicated people who power Ohio's economy and build up their communities.\n\nOhio\u2019s number 1 ranking is a testament to the commitment that has propelled Ohio into national leadership in economic growth & opportunity that directly benefits workers and their families.\n\nOhio's success didn't happen by accident. It reflects policies that encourage investment, reward innovation, and reduce unnecessary barriers to growth. When government gets out of the way, Americans do what they do best: build businesses, create jobs, and strengthen their communities.\n\nLooking ahead, I know Ohio's business leaders, our Chamber of Commerce, and, most importantly, Ohioans themselves will continue building on this success.\n\nThank you.
