The Pentagon is failing to keep servicemembers and their families safe from toxic PFAS exposure by delaying clean up at 6 military sites in Michigan.
@slotkin.senate.gov and I are demanding that Secretary Hegseth take accountability for this negligence.

Health care is a fundamental right. I stand ready to come to the table with my Republican colleagues to ensure Americans have access to quality, affordable health care coverage this year.
I’ve heard from thousands of Michiganders who are concerned, or have already heard from their insurance providers, that their health care premiums will skyrocket next year. If this is you, please don’t hesitate to reach out to my office to share your story.

Hey Michigan 👋 if you get your health insurance from healthcare.gov, you can now visit that site to see how much health care plans will cost next year. Michigan’s open enrollment period for health care starts this Saturday, Nov. 1, but you can start comparing rates today.
We need to ensure a seamless transition between Selfridge’s retiring A-10s and the incoming F-15EX fighter jets. As a member of the Armed Services Committee, I’m fighting to help minimize this gap, which would threaten our national security and undermine our fighter fleet.
While the Trump Administration is cancelling vital services, they are spending taxpayer dollars on private jets for Administration officials. www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
NEW: I am requesting that Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Inspector General open an investigation into DHS’s reported contract to purchase two luxury private jets for Secretary Kristi Noem’s personal use, totaling up to $200 million.
The Administration and Republican leadership in Congress should be working with us in good faith to end the shutdown as quickly as possible and ensure Americans can access the resources they depend on.
The Trump Administration is withholding Michiganders' food assistance for political gain, while doing nothing to reopen the government or address the growing health care affordability crisis in this country.
Trump’s economic policies are taking us in the wrong direction for lowering costs.
It’s a great night for football in East Lansing. No matter who you root for, enjoy the game, Michigan!
But… #GoGreen!
I’m leading a bill to ensure our service members and federal employees get the pay they have missed so far due to the shutdown. People need to pay their bills now. Simple as that.
I encourage my colleagues to get behind it as we work to address the health care crisis and end this shutdown.
I fought tooth-and-nail to pass the Affordable Care Act when I first came to Congress.
I won't stand by now as Republicans rip health care away from millions of Americans. We must ensure families can access health care.
I’m proud to lead a commonsense bill to not only improve our ability to quickly detect and respond to hazardous pipeline leaks, but also stop spills from ever happening in the first place.
www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
Republicans’ inaction is allowing health care costs to continue to go up for millions of Americans.
And with President Trump’s Big Ugly Bill making it even harder for folks to access health care, we need a plan to bring those costs down. I stand ready to find a bipartisan path forward.
Keeping our kids safe at the bus stop is not a partisan issue. My bill, the Brake for Kids Act, calls for a national public safety campaign to raise awareness of the dangers of illegally passing stopped school buses.
www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
I am working to protect access to lifesaving care and prevent health care costs from going up even more – especially after their Big Ugly Bill just outright cut health care for millions of Americans.
Rising health care costs are alarming for any family.
Republicans’ inaction on this health care crisis is leaving Michiganders with uncertainty and worry.
No one should live in fear in their own home. This #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth, I call on all Michiganders to help spread awareness of the resources available to those in need.
If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, help is available: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233)
That’s why I’m working to help protect the +900,000 small businesses in Michigan from the rising costs caused by Trump's chaotic tariffs.
