Ohio's Republicans in U.S. House

Do you remember how a majority of Americans voted for change? Apparently, certain Ohio Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives haven't gotten the message. Once again, the Ohio Republicans are playing the old game of obstructionism and promoting their anti-worker agenda.

CantonRep:

..Members voted, 247-171, to give plaintiffs more standing to file pay-bias suits. A yes vote was to pass a bill (HR 11) allowing claims to be filed within 180 days of the last infraction, thus voiding a Supreme Court ruling that suits must be filed within 180 days of the first infraction.

Voting yes: Steve Driehaus, D-1, Charlie Wilson, D-6, Marcy Kaptur, D-9, Dennis Kucinich, D-10, Marcia Fudge, D-11, Betty Sutton, D-13, Mary Jo Kilroy, D-15, John Boccieri, D-16, Tim Ryan, D-17, Zack Space, R-18.
Voting no: Jean Schmidt, R-2, Mike Turner, R-3, Jim Jordan, R-4, Robert Latta, R-5, Steve Austria, R-7, John Boehner, R-8, Pat Tiberi, R-12, Steve LaTourette, R-14.....

...Wage discrimination
Members voted, 256-163, to strengthen the federal law that bans pay discrimination based on gender. The bill empowers women alleging bias to sue for recovery of back pay and to receive punitive and compensatory damages. A yes vote was to pass HR 12.

Voting yes: Driehaus, Wilson, Kaptur, Kucinich, Fudge, Sutton, Kilroy, Boccieri, Ryan, Space.
Voting no: Schmidt, Turner, Jordan, Latta, Austria, Boehner, Tiberi, LaTourette....

*******

In conclusion, we can summarize and state that Ohio's Republican Members of the

House of Representatives are

1. against allowing people to file pay-bias suits

2. for wage discrimination.

The Republicans are once again clueless.
