This is a dangerous effort to rewrite the history of January 6th and will only further embolden the people who are willing to use violence to undermine our democracy. President Trump is sending a clear message – loyalty to him is more important than the rule of law. www.cbsnews.com/news/doj-mov...
At least 13 American servicemembers were killed and hundreds more have been injured. Michigan gas has jumped to nearly $4 a gallon. Fertilizer costs have increased dramatically for our farmers.   That’s why today I voted to reassert Congress’s authority on war powers and end this conflict.
This Arab American Heritage Month, I’m proud to recognize the countless contributions that Arab Americans have made to our state, country, and economy that are key to our nation’s diverse fabric.
A strong workforce pipeline in the maritime trades is critical to both America’s national security and Michigan’s economy. I’m proud that my CADETS Act is helping students, like those serving at our Great Lakes Maritime Academy in Northern Michigan, afford their education and land in-demand jobs.
As we see these incredible images of our planet from Artemis II, I want to give a special shoutout to the Michigan engineers and workers who built the Space Launch System. Everyone from the suppliers to Christina Koch, you make Michigan proud! www.detroitnews.com/story/news/n...
The President started this war flying by the seat of his pants. Now he’s threatening an outrageous, unconscionable escalation. We need a clear exit strategy, not a President recklessly putting even more U.S. servicemembers and innocent lives in harm’s way.
Very exciting that Michigan’s own Christina Koch is part of this historic Artemis II space mission. I’m proud to watch American ingenuity at its peak as these brave astronauts journey to the moon for the first time in decades. www.freep.com/story/news/l...
Because of late Michigander Gerald Elliot’s story, veterans can no longer be denied VA burial benefits if they choose to receive hospice care outside of a VA facility. I’m proud to lead the fight to extend this commonsense law. www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
On Vietnam War Veterans Day, we recognize the brave men and women who served our country and sacrificed so much in the Vietnam War. I will never stop working to ensure all veterans receive the care and benefits they earned in service.
Without clearly explaining to Congress and the American people why we’re at war in the first place, the Trump Administration is putting our servicemembers into harm's way and sending more taxpayer money to a war with Iran. It’s simply unacceptable.
16 years ago, the Affordable Care Act became law. Despite Republicans' repeated attempts to weaken that historic bill, the ACA has literally saved millions of lives by helping Americans afford comprehensive health care.
