COLUMBUS, Ohio — President Joe Biden unveiled his $1.8 trillion American FamiliesPlan Wednesday night, and for the most part, Ohio lawmakers reacted within party lines.
Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, supports the president's plan, saying it's a "huge step" toward rebuilding the economy. The plan includes an extension of the Child Tax Credit, a top priority for Democrats who want to make it permanent.
