  • The 13th Congressional District & Map

    Ohio's 13th Congressional District truly is a great place to live, raise a family and do business. Congresswoman Sutton has lived most of her life in and around the communities that make up much of the district, and she is proud to represent the people and places she knows and loves so much.

    Originally nicknamed the “Turnpike District”, the 13th Congressional District’s unique shape traces across the shoreline of Lake Erie in Lorain County, captures the “Emerald Necklace” of the Cleveland MetroParks and the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, and extends south to include the Portage Lakes State Park in Summit County. The 13th Congressional District is also home to institutions of higher learning such as Lorain County Community College and The University of Akron.

    The 13th Congressional District stretches across four of Northeast Ohio’s most populous counties, Lorain, Cuyahoga, Medina, and Summit, and it includes all or some of over thirty communities.

Return to Issues & Legislation

Congresswoman Sutton believes that the hard-working Americans who built this great nation are our country's backbone and enduring spirit, and because of that she has always been a staunch supporter of Northeast Ohio's and American manufacturing. As the daughter of a boilermaker, she is a lifelong supporter of the labor movement in America that helped build a strong middle class, made us the most productive and prosperous country in the world, and enabled millions of families to achieve the American dream. In the 20th century, labor fought - and won for hard-working Americans whether they were in unions or not - for a decent wage to support their families, health care in case they or their children got sick and for the right to retire with dignity and respect.

From testifying before the U.S. International Trade Commission on China's abusive trade practices to helping bring the most advanced lithium-ion automotive battery manufacturing plant in the country to Elyria to authoring "Cash for Clunkers," Congresswoman Sutton is a leader when it comes to enforcing the rules of trade, leveling the playing field and ushering in a new era of American manufacturing.

Because each manufacturing job has a multiplier effect in creating an additional four good-paying jobs, as part of the Make It in America agenda, the Congresswoman worked to ensure that Americans' tax dollars are used to support American manufacturing and American workers when building infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and water and sewer systems.

Cash for Clunkers

Congresswoman Sutton's signature bill to date, the highly successful Consumer Assistance to Recycle and Save (CARS) Act, "Cash for Clunkers," which provided a transitional and targeted economic stimulus that spurred auto sales, improved the environment and helped consumers purchase more fuel-efficient vehicles. The program spurred the sale of 700,000 vehicles, created or saved more than 60,000 jobs and resulted in a $3.8 billion to $6.8 billion increase in GDP. For her leadership on "Cash for Clunkers," Automotive News named her its 2010 All-Star for Government Relations.
