I’m aware of the plane crash near Traverse City. I am closely monitoring the situation as we work to get more information on the incident. Praying that the pilot and folks on the ground are safe.

Once completed, the Michigan Veteran Homes D.J. Jacobetti will help ensure veterans in the U.P. continue to receive quality care long into the future. I was proud to support this new construction by securing a $57 million federal investment in 2023.
Trump’s war with Iran continues to raise fuel costs. Michiganders did not want this war to begin with, and they are continuing to shoulder the burden. www.detroitnews.com/story/news/l...
As I have repeatedly said, the Postal Service does not administer elections and they have no legal authority to issue this rule. I will continue the fight to protect access to the ballot box.
The Supreme Court upheld the law and denied the Trump Administration’s demands to rewrite the rules for absentee ballots just weeks before the election.
During my motorcycle tour, we learned about the Bay City Fire Department’s plans to use federal funding I helped secure to protect firefighters from toxic PFAS contamination and purchase critical safety equipment.
Thank you to the National Park Service for 110 years of serving the American people. Our country is home to treasured public lands and natural wonders. I am fighting to protect them for future generations.

Thank you Humane Society of West Michigan for your caring work and partnership over the years to support survivors of domestic violence and their pets.
I am proud to stand by them through my work in Congress, and I will always fight to protect our four-legged friends.
Securing our nation from cyberattacks is one of the most important national security challenges we face. Ferris State University is helping to make sure we are prepared by training the next generation of cyber professionals.
In Traverse City today, we toured the nearly finished FishPass project downtown. Once completed, we will have the ability to sort native fish from harmful invasive species like sea lamprey in the Boardman/Ottaway River.
Here’s a wrap of days 2 and 3 of my motorcycle tour going to the UP and back!
We heard about the amazing improvements to come at the new Michigan Veteran Homes D.J. Jacobetti in Marquette. I was proud to jump start this construction by securing a $57 million federal investment in 2023. Special thank you to Michigan Veteran Homes.
The Mackinac Bridge is a testament to Michigan’s power and grit. We are a state of builders – and breathtaking views!
Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary is an economic engine for the City of Alpena and a critical part of Michigan’s heritage. Thank you to all the partners like Thunder Bay who help protect our Great Lakes!
Honored to meet with first responders at the Bay City Fire Department on this year’s tour. During my time in Congress, I’ve made it a mission to ensure Michigan firefighters have the support they need to do their essential work. Thank you to all who protect the people of Michigan.
For over 100 years, Berston Field House has been a cornerstone of the Flint community. I was proud to officially kick off the motorcycle tour here and discuss federal funding that will strengthen this institution for decades to come.
About to begin my “Thank You, Michigan” motorcycle tour at UAW Local 5960 in Lake Orion. Excited to be joined by some longtime riders and good friends on this last tour.
ICE must be held to the same standard as our local law enforcement. Unfortunately, DHS has not shared any corrective actions that have been taken related to the killings of Mr. Pretti and Ms. Good. Instead, we have seen the agency double down on violent tactics from Maine to Texas.
Millions of Americans have voted by mail, including President Trump. His fearmongering is an attempt to undermine the upcoming elections because he knows his policies have hurt Americans and he’s worried about the results.
The Trump Administration’s disregard for PFAS contamination is a danger to our environment and public health. We need to better protect Americans from these toxic chemicals.
I’m continuing to fight back against Trump’s EPA for ignoring PFAS safety in our country.
