Robert Portman
The Public Record
I just want to thank Senator Shaheen. We have worked on this for three and a half, maybe four years now.
I appreciate your willingness to hold a hearing and also your personal commitment to this issue from the start.
I hear this in Ohio constantly, that these companies are competing with companies in Japan and Germany.
Senator Shaheen has been a stalwart. Frankly, both of us have had to work with both of our caucuses on moving this forward because it is a consensus bill.
As Senator Portman noted our 2013 analysis also found that this bill would support about 190,000 jobs by 2030.
The Homeless Children and Youth Act of 2015 (S. 256), sponsored by Senator Dianne Feinstein and Senator Rob Portman would amend the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's definition of homelessness.
