I’m appalled & saddened by the murder of two Israeli embassy employees in Washington, D.C. last night. My heart is with their families, the Israeli embassy staff & those at the event where this vile attack happened.
We must all stand against antisemitism & hate-fueled violence.
The math on the Republican budget is pretty simple: Americans lose health care and food assistance while the richest people in our country get more money in their pockets.
It's fiscally irresponsible, and just plain wrong.
When I visited Guantánamo to see what the Trump Administration is up to, I learned that they're spending $100k a DAY per migrant detained there.
That's outrageous for a President that's telling everyone he's worried about waste.
Towns across Northern Michigan and the U.P. are still rebounding from extreme winter storms that hit the region earlier this year.
I'm calling on President Trump to declare a major disaster for Northern Michigan so communities can get the resources they need to recover.
Former President Biden and his family are in my thoughts following the news of his diagnosis. I’m wishing them strength as he begins treatment.
We can't be a great country if we don't actually make things, but President Trump's tariffs are raising costs for manufacturers throughout the supply chain — including for Grand Rapids-based Walker Tool & Die.
We need to support our workers, not hang them out to dry.
The good people at Walker Tool & Die in Grand Rapids make parts for cars, home appliances, and more. But President Trump's tariffs are making it harder to get the job done.
It was great to visit today and discuss how trade policy can better support Michigan manufacturing.
Eric Ueland will break the law as Deputy Director for Management at OMB. He's also more than willing to look the other way when it comes to Elon Musk's massive conflicts of interest.
That’s why I voted NO on his nomination.
It's way harder and more expensive to get the power back on after a storm than it is to make the investments to prevent a major outage from happening in the first place.
That's why I introduced bipartisan legislation to harden our power grid in Michigan and across the country.
Michigan is on the cutting-edge of developing new technologies that keep us competitive while creating good jobs for workers.
The American Innovation and Jobs Act would help ensure our small businesses and startups can continue to spearhead innovation.
Medicaid covers more than 2.5 million Michiganders. But President Trump wants to gut it and kick children, seniors, and people with disabilities off their health care — all to give a massive tax break to billionaires. I'm going to fight it every step of the way.
If President Trump accepts this plane from a foreign government, it’s not only a national security threat, it’s a $400 million down payment to benefit the Qatari government’s interests.
This is corruption, plain and simple.
Happy Mother’s Day to my incredible wife Colleen, my mother-in-law, and all the great moms in Michigan and across the country!
As Ranking Member of HSGAC, I’m calling on Senate Republicans to do their jobs and hold President Trump accountable for his challenges to our nation’s constitutional system of checks and balances and rule of law.
Communities across Michigan lost power for weeks on end following the devastating ice storm that just hit our state. That shouldn't happen in America.
That's why I've introduced a bipartisan bill to strengthen Michigan's power grid and prevent future outages.
Generations of brave Michiganders like Captain James McClain have answered the call to defend our nation.
When Captain McClain’s daughter Sheri contacted my office for help receiving her father’s military awards, we were honored to step up and help recognize his service.
Public service workers devote their careers to making things better for folks all across our country — from Social Security recipients to veterans.
This Public Service Recognition Week, I hope you'll join me in thanking public workers for all that they do.
President Trump is trying to defund the public media organizations our communities depend on for emergency notifications, news coverage and educational content that all ages can enjoy.
Freedom of the press is essential, and I'll keep fighting to protect public TV and radio.
Congratulations to Michiganders Christina Danieli, Maxwell Gilbert, Alexandrea Rutledge, and Jeremiah Stumpfig on your incredible accomplishments at this year’s Special Olympics World Winter Games!
You’ve made our state and our country proud. 🇺🇸
Frank Bisignano has made it clear that he won’t stop the Trump Admin and DOGE from making it harder for millions of Americans to access their Social Security benefits if he’s confirmed as SSA Commissioner.
I’m heading to the floor right now to vote NO on Frank Bisignano.
