Over the course of his nearly 20 years in office, Ryan only passed five bills. Of those laws, three of them were to rename federal buildings, including a post office in Tallmadge, Ohio. A fourth bill transferred the ownership of a Ravenna, Ohio, building from the federal government to the Ohio government.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan also touted endorsements from alleged Republicans, including a former staffer for former president George W.
