Congressman Greg Landsman, representing Ohio’s 1st district since 2023, has taken to social media to express his concerns about recent legislative developments and their impact on voting rights. Landsman, who succeeded Steve Chabot in Congress, has a background rooted in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he was born and currently resides. He is an alumnus of Ohio University.
On March 13, 2025, Congressman Landsman addressed the implications of the Supreme Court's decision on the Voting Rights Act of 1965. "Since the Supreme Court gutted the 1965 Voting Rights Act, politicians have worked to limit voting for tens of millions of Americans," he stated. He criticized the proposed SAVE Act for potentially restricting voting access for married women and those serving abroad and advocated for passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act as a solution.
The following day, on March 14, 2025, Landsman urged Congress to take action against what he described as unlawful practices affecting millions. "Congress needs to fight back. This is not normal or lawful. It’s hurting millions." His call to action emphasized the urgency of addressing these issues promptly.
Later that day, Landsman commented on the Senate's role in addressing governmental challenges. "The Senate has the power to stop the chaos, corruption, higher costs AND keep the government open," he tweeted. His remarks highlight his perspective on maintaining government functionality amidst political turmoil.
