As we spend this day with family and friends, we must all take a moment to reflect on the significance that Memorial Day holds.

This is reality for people in our state and across the country. Meanwhile, President Trump said he doesn’t even think about Americans' financial situation.

Here are a few of the “partisan” amendments Republicans rejected:
-Requiring ICE agents to be clearly identified
-Training ICE agents to deescalate interactions with the public
-Medical care for children detained by ICE
-Requiring a judicial warrant before entering a home
I'm proud to have known him as a friend, a colleague, and a mentor. Colleen and I are thinking of Jim and his family as they grieve his loss.
Barney Frank was one of the sharpest, most dedicated lawmakers I’ve ever worked with. Under his leadership, we passed the historic Dodd-Frank bill, which made comprehensive reforms to Wall Street after the 2008 financial crisis.
As the son of a WWII veteran and a former Lieutenant Commander in the U.S. Navy Reserve, I have a deep admiration and appreciation for the men and woman serving in uniform. This Armed Forces Day, and every day, my thoughts are with them as they sacrifice so much to keep us safe and secure.
From fuel to fertilizer, nearly everything is more expensive for Michigan farmers this planting season. The American people don't want to pay more for a war that we still don’t fully know why we are in.

Go Pistons! Let’s get the W on our home court!
Michiganders are paying the price of Trump’s war with Iran every time they fill up their tank.
Happy to see Sanford Lake is back and within legal level for the first time since 2020. To the families, business owners, and volunteers who never stopped fighting for this community - enjoy the summer! #SanfordStrong

I was proud to help secure $15 million in funding for the Port of Monroe. This investment will help the Port make necessary dock upgrades to improve operations and support key Michigan supply chains.

Great to see this for Hockeytown USA! Can’t wait to cheer them on!
MOTOR CITY, HERE WE COME 🎉
The PWHL is officially expanding to Detroit!

Michiganders continue to pay the price at the gas pump for President Trump’s war with Iran. It’s been over 60 days, and Congress and the American people have yet to hear a strategy for peace and how we will stop these rising costs.

I wouldn’t be where I am today without the teachers I’ve had in my life, including my dad, a proud public school teacher for many years.
This National Teacher Day, I'm sending my sincerest thank you to all the educators who go above and beyond for our students.
This International Firefighters’ Day, I’d like to applaud the heroism that firefighters display in Michigan and across the country. That’s why I’ve always fought to strengthen federal grant programs that make sure fire departments have enough staff and up-to-date safety equipment and resources.
Game time! Let’s go Pistons!
As the proud son of an SEIU steward and NEA teacher, I firmly believe we must protect all workers’ right to bargain for fair wages, better benefits, and safe workplaces. This International Workers’ Day, and every day, I’m proud to stand with Michigan workers!
I'm glad that SBA granted the disaster declaration requested by Gov. Whitmer and supported by bipartisan members of the Michigan congressional delegation, which makes low-interest federal disaster loans available to folks in SW Michigan affected by the March 6 tornadoes. wwmt.com/news/local/s...
Our government’s system of checks and balances does not work when Congress refuses to hold the President accountable. It’s time we see some real courage.
At a time when the Trump Administration continues to attack Americans' access to the ballot box, we must come together to defend our democracy and restore these essential voting protections.
