The drastic Medicaid cuts in Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” are putting greater strain on our state’s rural hospitals. As a result, Michiganders are seeing their local clinics close and losing access to essential health care services their families depend on. wwmt.com/news/local/m...
For over 1,000 days, the Azerbaijani government has unlawfully detained Armenian prisoners of war. The Trump Administration must stand with the Armenian people and hold Azerbaijan accountable by demanding their immediate and unconditional release.
Women should be able to make their own decisions about their healthcare, privately and without interference from politicians and judges. I’ll never stop fighting to restore and protect every Americans’ fundamental right to choose.
In the years since, we’ve seen victories in states like Michigan where voters have enshrined abortion rights into our state constitution. But unfortunately, Republicans have continued working to make abortion illegal everywhere.
Today marks 4 years since the conservative majority of the Supreme Court took away Americans’ constitutional right to an abortion, stripping access to reproductive health care from millions of Americans and putting countless women’s lives in danger.
We need to ensure our tribal communities, who have a deep understanding of these issues, can voice their concerns. I’ll keep working to get this commonsense bill passed to improve the inclusivity and success of this process. www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
On Juneteenth National Independence Day, we commemorate the closing of one of our nation’s most painful chapters. As we recognize this critical moment in our history, let’s recommit to addressing the systemic inequalities and racial disparities that persist in our society today.
Disasters hit red states and blue states alike. When they strike, we need to come together as Americans to help each other recover. But, President Trump has been politicizing recovery aid based on your Governor’s or Senators’ political party. It’s simply unacceptable.
I'm glad to see overwhelming bipartisan support in the Senate to help lower housing costs. The ROAD to Housing Act will help increase our housing supply and put the American Dream of homeownership in reach for more working families. Let's get it passed and signed into law.
Great to see the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative at work cleaning up the Detroit River. I am working to extend the GLRI so that projects like this have the resources they need to ensure our Great Lakes and Michigan’s waterways stay healthy for future generations. www.freep.com/story/news/e...
Happy Pride, Michigan! Pride Month is a time to elevate and recognize the generations of LGBTQ Americans who bravely stood up for their basic rights. We must band together to ensure that Michiganders are free to be their real, authentic selves.
DHS confirmed it is ready for trade and travelers on the Gordie Howe Bridge. That is great news for Michigan! Once open, the bridge will support international commerce that grows Michigan’s economy.
Given his history of using his position to target the President’s perceived political enemies, and his complete lack of national security experience, Mr. Pulte is completely unsuitable for this vital role.
