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.

Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
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.
We still don’t know Trump’s clear reason for starting this war and how he plans to end it.
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.
Excited for the Michigan men’s basketball team as they celebrate a historic season on campus today. Michiganders across the state are proud of you! www.freep.com/story/sports...
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!

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.
Rooting for Coach May and the Wolverines tonight. Bring it home!
Colleen and I want to wish everyone a happy Easter! Hope folks have a great Sunday with family and friends.
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...
Wishing a great Passover celebration to all Michiganders gathering around a Seder table tonight. Chag Sameach!
Our growing national debt is a problem that impacts every single one of us. We have to right the ship before it sinks.

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.

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.
It’s been one month since Trump put us at war with Iran. Since then, Michiganders have watched gas prices skyrocket. Yet still no clear goal or exit strategy coming from the Administration.
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.
March Madness is made in Michigan! Since 2006, the courts have been designed in Amasa at Connor Sports. Hoping it sends Michigan and MSU good luck! www.uppermichiganssource.com/2026/03/05/a...
11 times Democrats have tried to open TSA, FEMA, CISA, and the Coast Guard.
Republicans blocked it every time.
We must fund these agencies while we negotiate commonsense reforms to ICE.
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.
