WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) issued the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives filed a discharge petition to bring Export-Import Bank renewal to the floor:

“It’s encouraging that common sense is prevailing in the House. A majority in both chambers support giving small businesses the tools they need to compete globally. Majority Leader McConnell should put American businesses and workers ahead of ideology and schedule a real vote to renew the Export-Import Bank.”
