Working Towards America's Energy Independence

Since arriving in Congress, Congresswoman Sutton has been a leader in the fight for a new energy policy that will spur growth in renewable and domestic energy production, create good paying jobs for American workers and help reduce the cost of fuel for the country’s families. The skyrocketing price of gas is one of Congresswoman Sutton’s biggest concerns and she will continue to fight to make gasoline affordable for families in Ohio and across the country.

Fighting to Bring Integrity and Accountability Back to Washington

On the day she was sworn into office, January 4th, 2007, Congresswoman Sutton stood on the floor of the House of Representatives and took action to break the ties between politicians in Washington and those who seek to buy their influence. On that very first day, she helped lead the effort to pass groundbreaking ethics reform, raising the standard of ethics for the House of Representatives. Since that time, she has continued to be a leader in the effort to end the culture of corruption in Washington.

Supporting our Service Men and Women

Congresswoman Sutton believes that we have a moral responsibility to care for our troops and veterans. As the proud daughter of a World War II veteran, she is committed to providing our service members with the benefits they deserve She has supported legislation that meets the needs of soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan while never forgetting all of our heroes who have served in the Armed Forces. It is not enough to simply pay tribute to our troops with words; we must show our appreciation through our actions.
