Prior to Trump’s war with Iran, his Administration removed 1/3rd of America’s cybersecurity workforce. Iran’s cyber attacks, like the one in my home state, prove the importance of maintaining a strong cybersecurity workforce for our national security.

As the holy month of Ramadan comes to an end, I want to wish all Michiganders celebrating a wonderful Eid al-Fitr. May your day be filled with family, friends, and community. Eid Mubarak!
The Spartans and Wolverines are always ready for March.

Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov voted NO on advancing the nomination of Senator Mullin for DHS Secretary.
Not in this country.
Americans deserve to know the truth about the President’s war with Iran. Threatening broadcasters’ media licenses over news coverage that the Admin doesn’t like is a direct attack on free speech. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/w...
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Michigan! ☘️
The reality of President Trump’s war with Iran is higher gas prices here at home. The American people did not ask for this war, and they need to hear clear answers from the President on how these operations will bring lasting peace and security.
No one hustles harder than Detroit. Celebrating the Motor City today and every day. Happy 313 Day!
All Americans should feel safe where they pray, work, and live. Antisemitism has no place in our society and we all must come together to condemn this horrible violence.
My heart is with the families and everyone affected by the violence at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield. I am monitoring the situation, and people should follow the direction of law enforcement. I’m grateful for these first responders for their quick response.
Trump’s war with Iran is already driving up costs for American families at the gas pump. Before energy prices go up even more, the American people deserve real answers from the president on why we are in this war in the first place and how we’re getting out of it. www.detroitnews.com/story/news/l...
The Constitution makes clear that Congress has the power to declare war. President Trump must make his case before the American people and tell us the end goal of these operations.
l’m devastated by the damages and lives lost from the tornadoes that ripped through Southwest Michigan, and grateful to the first responders who are providing support. Please visit www.michigan.gov/miready to find up to date resources - we’re here for you, Michigan.
Americans don’t want to send their sons and daughters into harm’s way when there is no imminent threat to the United States. They want us focused on lowering costs here at home. Not more wars.
Great talking with you, Symone D. Sanders Townsend and Michael Steele on Iran, DHS funding, and more!
Congress decides whether we go to war, not the president. Trump needs to justify these military operations to the American people, especially now that six American soldiers lost their lives. That’s why I’m voting YES on @kaine.senate.gov’s War Power Resolution.

Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov and @slotkin.senate.gov are urging Secretary Noem to REVERSE plans for the Romulus detention center, which would displace important manufacturing jobs to house individuals in an unsafe facility.
Mourning the loss of the three American servicemembers who were killed in action during military operations against Iran. My heart goes out to their families and loved ones. I am forever grateful for their service and sacrifice.
This is me soon after I joined the Scouts. I went on to become an Eagle Scout, where I learned how to work with kids from different backgrounds to reach a common goal, like staying dry on rainy nights with nothing but a tarp.
Every kid should have access to these kinds of lessons.
