I just touched down in Australia on an investment mission to strengthen Michigan’s international manufacturing and business ties. Australia continues to be a strong partner building opportunities in Michigan’s growth industries, from mobility and defense to clean energy.

Today marks FIVE MONTHS that the people of Bay City, Midland and Saginaw have gone without a State Senator. Five months without no voice for their communities. Five months of taxation without representation. @govwhitmer is ignoring 270,000 Michiganders. And it's shameful.
