June may be over, but it’s always a great time to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community. Thank you to Flint Pride for all you do to support love and freedom in mid-Michigan.

The Big Ugly Bill is a disaster that mid-Michigan families cannot afford. Your health care and utilities costs will shoot up, all so that the richest Americans get a historic tax break. Read more about what it really means for your family.

More than half a billion dollars in public funding for health care and food programs is vanishing, taking millions from Michigan’s 8th District. The law that did it passed by a single vote.

My prayers are with the family of the little boy. But it will take more than just the prayers of a community to prevent this kind of senseless violence from happening again. We need to do more to stem the root causes of gun violence to keep our kids safe.

Thrilled to announce the @FlintRegistry has officially been funded through 2026!. Dr. Mona and her team at the Flint Registry do amazing work to support the families who were affected by the Water Crisis. We will keep pushing so they can continue their incredible work.

For 60 years, Medicare & Medicaid have made quality, affordable health care a reality for millions of Americans. While out-of-touch extremists put tax cuts for the rich ahead of healthcare for you, I’m fighting every day to strengthen these life-saving programs.

The consequences of cutting health care to pay for handouts to millionaires are real. Allison is from Flint, and her daughter relies on Medicaid for cancer treatments. Blanket cuts to the program do nothing to make their lives easier.

Federal funding is coming to help revitalize the runway at MBS Airport. This will make flying to & from mid-Michigan safer & easier while supporting our local economy & creating good-paying construction jobs.

Republicans just gave massive handouts to the ultra-wealthy, and now they want to rip away Affordable Care Act tax credits that actually help working families. I'm fighting for a bill to extend those tax credits, which are set to expire in January. There's no time to waste.

The Saginaw River Coast Guard station cut back its hours of operation, but emergencies can happen any time, any day. Local law enforcement has had to pick up the slack, but their resources are already stretched thin. We need to restore 24/7 service to keep our community safe.

This could have been a game-changer for mid-Michigan’s economy. We need practical solutions, not chaos and dysfunction that cost us once-in-a-generation opportunities.

A gut punch to working families across our region. Trump’s abandonment of long-term investments and chaotic tariff practices are not only raising costs, they just killed 10,000 good-paying jobs.

In mid-Michigan, we lose over 300 of our loved ones & neighbors to overdoses every year. We need to keep our kids safe. That's why I'm putting forward a plan that would prevent drugs from reaching our streets in the first place and address the root causes of addiction.

Last night, I joined @CountyGenesee for a ride-along. We need to provide law enforcement officers with the training and equipment they need to stay safe as they protect our community.

The cuts to health care in the Big Ugly Bill will make people sicker and raise costs for working families. But don't take my word for it. Listen to the mid-Michigan doctors, nurses, and patients rallying against these cuts.

Right now, the Social Security Administration is putting struggling seniors (due to no fault of their own) on the hook for tens of thousands of dollars. I introduced a bill to fix this & protect seniors from having to pay for the government’s mistakes.

Each year, about two million people are told they owe the Social Security Administration money because the agency miscalculated their benefits and paid them too much.
