Washington, D.C. — Today, Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur (D-OH), released the following statement after she took the Oath of Office and was sworn in as a Member of the House of Representatives for the 117th Congress:
"As I take the oath of office and am sworn in as a Member of the 117th Congress of the United States, I am fully mindful of the solemn obligation I hold to the people of Ohio's 9th District," said Rep.
