Background
Congresswoman Kaptur, a native Toledoan, lives in the same modest house where she grew up.
She is a Polish-American with humble, working class roots. Her family operated a small grocery store and her mother later served on the original organizing committee of a trade union at the Champion Spark Plug factory in Toledo.
After graduating from St. Ursula Academy, she became the first member of her family to attend college, earning a bachelor’s degree in history from the University of Wisconsin (1968) and later a master’s degree in urban planning from the University of Michigan.
After working for 15 years as a city and regional planner, primarily in Toledo and Chicago, she accepted an appointment as a domestic policy advisor to President Jimmy Carter. During his Administration, she helped maneuver 17 housing and neighborhood revitalization bills through Congress.
In Congress
In 1981, while pursuing a doctorate in urban planning and development finance at MIT, she was recruited by the Lucas County Democratic Party to run for Congress against a first-term Republican. Although she was outspent by a 3-to-1 margin, Kaptur parlayed a strong economic message during the 1982 recession to stage a nationally-recognized upset.
In Washington, Kaptur fought vigorously to win a seat on the House Appropriations Committee. Today she serves as the first woman to Chair the influential House Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development, which she considers an honor given the Ninth District stretches much of the southern Lake Erie coastline.
Kaptur also serves as a senior member of the powerful House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense. She uses this assignment to advocate for a number of military assets throughout northern Ohio, such as the Toledo Air National Guard’s 180th Fighter Wing unit in Toledo, and Camp Perry, a National Guard training facility located near Port Clinton, which also hosts the Ohio Air National Guard’s 200th Red Horse Squadron, and the significant number of defense industrial base manufacturers throughout the district.
Congresswoman also serves on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, and Science, which has jurisdiction over the Department of Commerce, Department of Justice, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the National Science Foundation.

District
Source: Wikipedia
Ohio’s 9th congressional district has been represented by Representative Marcy Kaptur (D) since 1983. It was one of five districts that would have voted for Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election had they existed in their current configuration while being won or held by a Democrat in 2022.
This district is located in the northwestern part of the state, bordering Michigan, Indiana, and Ontario, Canada (via Lake Erie), and includes all of Defiance, Williams, Fulton, Lucas, Ottawa, Sandusky, and Erie counties, and a portion of northern Wood County.
The previous iteration of the 9th district stretched along Lake Erie from Toledo to Cleveland, and was called “The Snake by the Lake” due to its long and skinny appearance on the map.[3] It was named of the “Top 5 Ugliest Districts” due to gerrymandering. The two parts of the district were connected only via the Thomas Edison Memorial Bridge between Erie and Ottawa counties, as well as Crane Creek State Park. Some Ohio Democrats argued that when the beach floods, the district was not contiguous.[
It was one of several districts challenged in a 2018 lawsuit seeking to overturn Ohio’s congressional map as unconstitutional gerrymandering. According to the lawsuit, the 9th “eats its way across the southern border of Lake Erie” while fragmenting Cleveland and Toledo.[6] In 2019, the Supreme Court refused to hear the case meaning that Ohio’s congressional districts, including District 9, would not need to be redrawn.
Wikipedia
Marcia Carolyn Kaptur (/ˈkæptər/ KAP-tər; born June 17, 1946) is an American politician serving as the U.S. representative from Ohio’s 9th congressional district. Now in her 21st term, she has been a member of Congress since 1983.
A member of the Democratic Party, Kaptur is the longest-serving woman in congressional history (having surpassed Barbara Mikulski in 2023)[1] and the dean of Ohio’s congressional delegation.
Early life and education
Kaptur was born on June 17, 1946, in Toledo, Ohio, the daughter of Anastasia Delores (Rogowski) and Stephen Jacob Kaptur.[2][3] Her parents were both of Polish descent. Her mother was an automobile union organizer and her family operated a small grocery. Kaptur started volunteering with the Ohio Democratic Party when she was 13.[4]
Kaptur graduated from St. Ursula Academy in 1964 and became the first person in her family to attend college.[5][6] She received her undergraduate degree from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1968 and a Master of Urban Planning from the University of Michigan in 1974.[7] She did doctoral studies in urban planning development finance at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1981.[8]
Early career
Kaptur served on the Toledo-Lucas County Plan Commissions from 1969 to 1975. She was director of planning for the National Center for Urban Ethnic Affairs (1975–1977), founded by Geno Baroni. She later served as a domestic policy advisor during President Jimmy Carter‘s administration.[9]
U.S. House of Representatives
Elections
While at MIT, Kaptur was recruited to run for Congress in 1982 against freshman Republican Ed Weber, who had upset 26-year incumbent Lud Ashley two years earlier.[10] Despite being outspent by almost 3–1, she defeated Weber 58–39%.[11][12]
In 1984, Kaptur faced a strong challenge from Republican Frank Venner, longtime anchorman and weatherman at WTVG, but defeated him 55–44%,[13] even as Ronald Reagan carried the district. From 1986 to 2002, she won every election with at least 74% of the vote.[citation needed] In 2004, she faced her strongest challenger in 20 years in Lucas County auditor Larry Kaczala, but won the election 68–32%.[citation needed]
- 2006
Kaptur won her 13th term with 74% of the vote.[14]
- 2008
Kaptur won her 14th term with 74% of the vote.[15]
- 2010
Shortly after achieving fame during the 2008 election, conservative figure Samuel “Joe the Plumber” Wurzelbacher announced that he was considering challenging Kaptur in the 2010 election,[16][17][18]
but chose not to run. Kaptur was instead challenged by Republican Rich Iott, a Tea Party movement favorite. She was reelected to a 15th term with 59% of the vote,[19] her closest victory since 1984.
- 2012
For her first three decades in Congress, Kaptur represented a compact district centered around Toledo. Redistricting after the 2010 census extended the 9th district to western Cleveland. The new map put the home of incumbent 10th district congressman Dennis Kucinich into the 9th, so they ran against each other in the Democratic primary. Graham Veysey, a small-business owner from Cleveland, also ran in the primary. Retaining over 60% of her former territory, Kaptur won the primary with 56% of the vote to Kucinich’s 40%.[20][21] In the general election, she won a 16th term against Wurzelbacher and Libertarian Sean Stipe.[22] The reconfigured 9th was no less Democratic than its predecessor, and Kaptur had effectively clinched reelection by defeating Kucinich in the primary.
2014
Kaptur’s 2014 opponent was Richard May, a longtime Republican activist from west Cleveland, who beat Lakewood resident Robert C. Horrocks Jr. in the May 6 primary.[23] Kaptur won 68–32%.
2016
Kaptur’s 2016 opponent was Donald Larson, who defeated Steven Kraus and Joel Lieske in the Republican primary on March 15. Kaptur won 68–31%.
2020
Kaptur’s 2020 opponent was Rob Weber, who defeated Charles W. Barrett, Tim Connors, and Timothy P. Corrigan in the Republican primary on March 17. Kaptur won 63–37%.
2022
Kaptur was seemingly placed in a vulnerable position when redistricting shifted her district to the west in order to take in territory previously in the neighboring heavily Republican 5th district. While Joe Biden carried the old 9th with 59% of the vote, the new 9th would have voted for Donald Trump with 51% of the vote. Despite this, Kaptur easily defeated Republican nominee J.R. Majewski, 56% to 43%.[24]
Tenure
In 1996, Ross Perot asked Kaptur to be his vice-presidential running mate. She declined.[25]
Kaptur voted with President Joe Biden’s stated position 100% of the time in the 117th Congress, according to a FiveThirtyEight analysis.[26]
Patent reform
Kaptur opposed the America Invents Act that passed into law and changed the U.S. Patent System. She opposed changing from a “first to invent system” to a “first to file system”, saying it hurt small businesses[27] and “Our patent system is the finest in the world… the proposed solutions are special fixes that benefit these few giants at the expense of everyone else.”[28]
Kaptur co-sponsored the Restoring America’s Leadership in Innovation Act. In order to strengthen inventors’ property rights, the bill would remove the administrative review process that allows the public to challenge patent filings’ validity; the process exists to prevent misuse of the patent system.[29]
World War II memorial
On December 10, 1987, Kaptur introduced the World War II Memorial Act in the House.[30] The bill authorized the American Battle Monuments Commission to establish a World War II memorial. It was not voted on before the end of the session and so failed to be enacted. Kaptur introduced similar legislation twice in 1989 but these bills also failed to become law.[31]
Kaptur introduced legislation for the fourth time on January 27, 1993. This time the legislation was voted on and passed in the House on May 10, 1993. After a companion bill was passed in the United States Senate, President Bill Clinton signed the bill into law on May 25, 1993.[32]
Kaptur later said that she felt “a great sense of fulfillment” that the memorial was built. “This generation was the most unselfish America has ever seen,” she said. “They never asked anybody for anything in return.”[33]
Abortion
Kaptur holds a 95% rating from NARAL. She supported Roe v. Wade, calling it “the law of the land”. She has voted for some proposals to restrict access to abortion and opposed others. In January 2007, she was the only member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus to vote against federally funded embryonic stem-cell research.[34] Kaptur voted for the Stupak-Pitts Amendment, an amendment to America’s Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009.[35] She was one of only 16 Democrats to vote for the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act on May 4, 2011.[36] Kaptur also voted to ban partial-birth abortions in 2000 and 2003.[37][38] She voted against the Child Custody Protection Act in 1999 and the Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act in 2005.[39][40] Kaptur voted against allowing privately funded abortions at overseas military hospitals twice in 1995, as well as in 1997, 1998 and 1999.[41][42][43][44][45] In 2005, Kaptur voted to lift the ban on abortions at overseas military hospitals.[46]
In 2023, Kaptur voted against the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which would have criminalized failing to provide care for an infant born alive after an abortion attempt.[47]
Free trade
Kaptur opposes free trade agreements. She helped lead opposition to the North American Free Trade Agreement, permanent normal trade relations for the People’s Republic of China, and fast track authority for the president.[citation needed]
2008 economic crisis
Kaptur opposed the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, which provided a bailout for U.S. banks.[48] Her opposition to the bailout was highlighted in Michael Moore‘s 2009 documentary Capitalism: A Love Story.[49]
On April 12, 2011, Kaptur introduced H.R. 1489 to restore the Glass–Steagall Act, “To repeal certain provisions of the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act and revive the separation between commercial banking and the securities business, in the manner provided in the Banking Act of 1933, the so-called ‘Glass–Steagall Act’, and for other purposes.” There were 30 co-sponsors.[50]
Immigration reform
Kaptur was one of 38 Democrats to vote against the DREAM Act in December 2010. It passed the House but failed in the Senate.[51]
In 2021, Kaptur voted for the DREAM Act.[52]
2016 presidential election
Kaptur endorsed Senator Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary, and introduced him at a rally in Toledo.[53] On October 3, 2016, she endorsed the nominee, Hillary Clinton, who had won Ohio and her district in the primary, at a rally in Toledo.[citation needed]
Gun control
In 2022, Kaptur voted for H.R. 1808: Assault Weapons Ban of 2022.[54][55] The legislation would ban semiautomatic rifles, including AR-15s, the most popular rifles in the U.S.[56]
Syria
In 2023, Kaptur voted against H.Con.Res. 21, which directed President Joe Biden to remove U.S. troops from Syria within 180 days.[57][58]
Ukraine
Kaptur co-chairs the Ukrainian Caucus. She has been a vocal supporter of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Kaptur has said Ukraine “voted for her own independence and has been laboring to be free with continued Russian meddling in her country all these decades.”[59] In February 2023, Kaptur signed a letter advocating for President Biden to give F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine.[60]

In 2014, write-in candidates Cory Hoffman and George A. Skalsky received 112 votes and 29 votes, respectively. In 2016, write-in candidate George A. Skalsky received 5 votes.
Personal life
Kaptur is a Roman Catholic.[71][72] In her letter to NETWORK Lobby, she wrote: “The Roman Catholic faith is a central pillar of my being, particularly as an American of Polish heritage”.[72] She describes her Catholicism as an element of her Polish heritage, stating that the Catholic Church gave her “ancestors worth and hope — during times of bondage, repression, punishment, war, illness, and harrowing economic downturns”.[72] Kaptur also expressed her admiration for Catholic social teaching, especially the option for the poor. In 2010, Kaptur withheld her vote on Affordable Care Act until being assured that it would not fund abortion.[73] Because she mixes Political Catholicism with her progressive persona, The Washington Post described her as “an economic populist from America’s heartland with progressive values and a conservative disposition”.[73]
