The bill President Trump just signed into law will cripple small and rural hospitals who rely on Medicaid funding to serve our communities. This is going to make it harder for Michiganders to receive health care, all to pay for his billionaire tax cuts.
I am deeply saddened by the tragic loss of life in Texas from the recent flash floods. My heart is with the victims and their families, and I’m thankful for the first responders who are putting themselves in harm’s way to save lives and find those who are still missing.
The bill President Trump just signed into law will kick millions off their health care, and make it harder for folks in Michigan and across the country to afford groceries and power bills. It’s a betrayal of hardworking Americans.
Happy 4th of July! I hope you all have a fun and safe day celebrating with family and friends.
The bill Republicans passed yesterday will blow up the deficit, kick millions off their health care and make it harder for families across the country to afford food and energy bills. That’s not what Americans sent us here to do.
The bill that Republicans just passed is an unconscionable betrayal of folks in Michigan and across the country. It will gut health care for millions of Americans and make it harder for families all over the U.S. to afford food and energy bills. My full statement:
The tax cuts for billionaires in President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” would add more than $3 trillion to our deficit – leaving us unprepared to face of an emergency like another pandemic or financial crisis. That’s just reckless.
Nobody in Michigan wants to cut food assistance and health care to finance a tax cut for billionaires — but that's exactly what Republicans are trying to do.
@slotkin.senate.gov and I are going to fight this ridiculous bill every step of the way.
Let’s be clear. Republicans are trying to pay for their tax cuts for billionaires by gutting health care for millions of Americans. This would hurt kids, seniors, and hardworking families all across Michigan. I’ll never support that.
Every dollar of SNAP food assistance generates more than $1.50 in economic activity. This bill wouldn’t just jeopardize families’ ability to put food on the table — it would hurt farmers, local grocery stores, and the entire food supply chain. That doesn’t make any sense.
This is the most harmful bill that I can ever remember debating in all the years I've served in the U.S. Senate.
Giving billionaires a tax cut at the expense of hardworking Americans is reprehensible — and not what our constituents sent us here to do.
Republicans are selling out hardworking Americans to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. That's why they're kicking folks off their health care and slashing food assistance.
Hundreds of thousands of Michiganders could lose their health care if Republicans cut Medicaid. They're shouting from the rooftops about the devastating consequences they'd face. Here are some of their stories.
My statement on why I voted for Senator Kaine's War Powers Resolution:
The Trump Admin. wants to keep rural Americans in the dark by cutting funding for local public TV & radio stations that share emergency alerts to keep folks safe during storms & disasters.
When I pressed Trump's budget director on this, he just refused to answer my question.
Reposted byU.S. Senator Gary Peters
I’ve heard some people cast union labor as a problem or a roadblock to progress. Those folks are dead wrong.
If you’re a large corporation worried about unionization, I suggest you focus a bit more on taking care of your workers with good wages and good benefits.
President Trump and Republicans are trying to raise energy costs for families and slash American manufacturing jobs to give billionaires a tax cut. I’m going to keep fighting back.
3 years ago, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. As a result, women today have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers did.
We must pass the Women’s Health Protection Act to restore every woman’s right to make their own health care decisions, no matter where they live.
10 years ago, the Obergefell v. Hodges decision affirmed that love is love, and that marriage equality is a fundamental right in this country. Today, we celebrate a decade of progress and recommit ourselves to the fight for equality.
