Our union workers are often the first to get wind of issues with the federal government in workplaces, so it was good to sit down and hear directly from them. Steelworkers are always welcome in my office (even if they are from Ohio).
In this week's Intel Briefing, we break down 3 important topics: 1️⃣ The Gordie Howe Bridge and how it will help Michiganders 2️⃣ How to stay safe during tornadoes and other extreme weather 3️⃣ What it could look like if Pres. Trump tries to interfere in our elections youtu.be/W6C6wOh4i5c
This week, I had the chance to talk with the next generation of leaders from the University of Michigan Public Service Intern Program. We had insightful conversations about what it’s like to serve as a Senator, bipartisanship, and the overwhelming need for younger leadership in our politics.
So, between morale and loss of qualified senior enlisted and senior officers, we are seeing a real change in our military that's affecting things not just at the top level, but also all the way down to our most junior officers.
I’m hearing young people, particularly young women and young officers of color, who are saying to me, “I planned to be in the military for 20 or 30 years, but now I feel like there is going to be a ceiling on me succeeding in this institution....
I am hearing from a ton of people who have been career military officers who are saying, “look if anyone of color or if every woman is being stripped out of these lists, how am I to understand who and how can get promoted.”
What I am hearing about from folks in uniform is a new secret vetting process where people in the Department of Defense are looking at someone’s social media history. Looking at whether they attended a Pride event or posted something on their personal Facebook page about Martin Luther King Day.
Just this year, 40 military officers have been forcibly removed from those promotion lists. Over half of them are either women, or people of color. There seems to be a pointed effort to get rid of people who are not white men who are on the promotion list by merit.
What is happening inside the military with promotions and firings: We have a ton of people who are being removed from promotion lists. They’re being recommended by those in uniform, and they are being stripped out by Pete Hegseth.
The war in Iran is driving up costs here at home. If and when the Strait of Hormuz opens up, and global shipping is resumed it will be important to hold oil and gas companies accountable and make sure gas prices are again coming down.
I’ll take any chance I can get to talk to manufacturers, suppliers, investors, and workers who can turn an idea into something real and create good jobs along the way. Thanks to Traverse Connect for having me at your Reshore Summit!
Whether it’s on land, in the water, or in the sky — new technology should be built by Michiganders, many of whom were in the room with me in Traverse City last week. Companies like Sharrow Marine, whose propeller technology is groundbreaking (and it’s made right here in Michigan!)
I never posted on social media before I ran for office. One of the first times I posted was about President Trump trying to repeal Obamacare. It took my friends by surprise and they thought I’d been hacked.
