* Why do we hear very little from Republican Rep. Pat Tiberi? Tiberi (OH-12) has remained in the background on some public issues, but appears to have taken a turn to the right on other legislation. Even though Tiberi has been recognized by the Farm Bureau, I wonder if they've taken a good look at the new 2012 Paul Ryan proposed budget plan that strips farm subsidies from the budget. Tiberi supports the new version of the Paul Ryan plan, even though it will create hardships for farmers.
How effective of a member of the House of Representatives has Pat Tiberi been for his constituents? There are lots of complaints. Many in Delaware County feel they've been neglected by Tiberi. The level of poverty in other parts of Tiberi's district make you wonder if he has even visited the poorest neighborhoods within his district.
When you examine some of the Pat Tiberi sponsored legislation, you wonder if his work in Congress is geared toward helping constituents or someone else.
Govtrack has information about a bill sponsored by Rep. Pat Tiberi in 2003 that was titled, HR 2065: To amend the Fair Labor Standard Act of 1938 to Exempt Licensed Funeral Directors and Licensed Embalmers from the Minimum Wage and Overtime Compensation Requirements of that Act.
Gee. Why would Pat Tiberi sponsor a bill like this??????? You don't think that it could have benefited a relative that owns a funeral home, like Maeder Quint Tiberi Funeral Home? Luckily, this legislation sponsored by Pat Tiberi never became law. The truth of the matter is that Pat Tiberi was sent to congress to work for all of his constituents, not just his relatives.
