U.S. Senator Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio) used his social media platform on April 9 and 10, 2026, to criticize Senate Democrats’ policies regarding border security and tax refunds, while highlighting the actions of President Trump and Congressional Republicans.
On April 9, Moreno commented on Senate Democrats’ approach to border security pay: “This level of performance by our @BPUnion reverses a BONUS! Instead, Senate Democrats still refuse to pay them! Democrats have disdain for working American families. It’s all about illegals all the time for them. As @ChrisMurphyCT says: ‘it’s who they care most about.'”
The following day, Moreno addressed economic policy and tax refunds in another post: “Working Americans will be getting huge refunds this year thanks to the actions taken by President Trump and Republicans last year. Every single Democrat fought ruthlessly to keep that from happening!” On April 10, he further discussed trade policy outcomes in Ohio: “The American worker is at the center of everything President Trump and Republicans in Congress do. Proud to join @jamiesongreer in Ohio today to see first hand the results of phenomenal trade policies. Senate Democrats, meanwhile, are probably jail breaking illegals. Sad.”
Moreno immigrated from Colombia at age five with his family and became a U.S. citizen at eighteen (official website). He maintains offices throughout Ohio—including Washington, Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati—to serve constituents (official website). In addition to serving on committees related to banking, housing, urban affairs, commerce, science, transportation, homeland security and budget issues (official website), Moreno has promoted blockchain technology initiatives and engaged experts on autonomous vehicle safety practices (official website). His professional background includes building one of America’s leading car dealership groups—a record he cites as evidence of his commitment to job creation in Ohio (official website).
