  • 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.

Sutton Calls on Speaker Boehner to Create Jobs, Pass Long-Term Highway Bill

Mar 29, 2012

Today, Congresswoman Betty Sutton (OH-13) released the following statement after voting against a Republican-led short-term extension of the Highway Bill instead of passing a two-year reauthorization that would provide lasting jobs and certainty to Ohio families:


“Investing in our transportation and infrastructure means creating jobs and improving our communities. Our nation cannot afford to continue this inefficient stop-gap method of funding for our infrastructure and transportation systems; this band-aid approach is costing us jobs and it is undercutting economic growth,” said Sutton. “I call on Speaker Boehner to bring the Senate transportation bill to the House floor for a vote and to work with Democrats on implementing long-term solutions to creating jobs and improving our nation’s roads, rails, and other infrastructure.”
 

A longtime leader on advocating for smart investments in our national infrastructure and improvements in our transportation networks, Sutton supports legislation passed by the United States Senate (S.1813) by an overwhelming bipartisan margin of 74 to 22 (Senate Roll Call Vote Number 48). According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, over 55,000 jobs in Ohio are supported by the Highway Bill.
