In the Great Lakes state, we know how important fishing is to our culture and economy. That’s why I'm leading two bipartisan bills to help keep our fish populations healthy and protected. Read more here: www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! This month, we celebrate the vibrant culture and significant contributions that our Latino friends, neighbors, and colleagues have made in communities throughout Michigan.

The government threatening to remove a network’s broadcast licenses just because the President doesn’t like its content is state censorship. When Trump and his FCC cronies make these threats, what they’re really attacking is Americans’ 1st Amendment right to free speech and a free press.
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 18(source)
Our nation’s debt is alarming, and Trump’s tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy are only making it worse. I took to the Senate floor once again to remind my Republican colleagues of the dangers we face if we do not change course – and do it soon.
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 18(source)
Great to have some Michigan @teamsters.bsky.social in the office. Thank you for always bringing Michigan workers’ voices to Washington. I’m with you every step of the way in Congress to ensure fair wages and a better future for working families.
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 12(source)
I’m very grateful to law enforcement for responding to these threats quickly. As Americans, we must reject this pattern of violence and do our part to turn the temperature down. Political differences must never lead to violence, and pointing fingers only stokes more hatred and threatens lives.
2 Michigan politicians report bomb threats targeting where they live
Michigan Lt. Gov. Garlin Gilchrist II and state Sen. Jeremy Moss, D-Southfield, said bomb threats targeted where they live.

I’ll never forget how we came together as a nation after the horrific terrorist attacks on 9/11. Today, I’m proud to continue to lead a bipartisan effort to establish "Patriot Week" - which honors the sacrifices made on that dark day. Special thanks to Oakland Co. Judge Warren for his partnership.
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 11(source)
On this 24th anniversary of 9/11, may we honor the memory of the 2,977 Americans who lost their lives, the families whose loved ones never came home, and the first responders who selflessly ran into danger. Let us never forget the strength of a united America.
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 11(source)
I am praying for Charlie Kirk, his family and the students at Utah Valley University who were impacted by today’s despicable shooting. We must stand against all political violence. It has no place in our democracy.

Many Michigan aerospace manufacturers directly support @NASA's work. But unfortunately this Administration has created a lot of uncertainty about the future of NASA & critical missions like Artemis. These missions drive economic growth & discovery. We must continue to invest in space exploration.
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 5(source)
Bill Nye and I agree: the United States must continue to lead the world in science and innovation. NASA is at the heart of that mission, so we can't stop fighting to protect their vital work 🚀
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 4(source)
My PROSWIFT Act has helped improve our nation’s ability to predict severe space weather events that could harm us here on Earth. This Administration wants to cut funding for that program, despite it being cost-effective and essential to protecting public safety. I’ll keep fighting back.
U.S. Senator Gary Peters @peters.senate.govSep 3(source)
Last week I had the chance to stop by the Air Zoo and Flight Innovation Center in Kalamazoo. Those folks are doing some great work to preserve our nation’s history through restoring aircraft and teaching the next generation about aviation.
