“I congratulate Senators-elect Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff on their historic wins. On the same night, Georgians elected the state’s first Black senator and the state’s first Jewish senator. Their groundbreaking victories have secured a Democratic majority in the U. S. Senate and will bring hope for the many Ohioans who have been waiting to get the help they need from Washington.”
