The Edmund Fitzgerald was a symbol of Great Lakes shipping, of Michigan industry, of American strength.
Over the next few days leading up to the 50th anniversary of this story, I will be sharing some details about why this story lives on.
There is a lot going on this week. And in my Intel Briefing, I go deep on three important topics.
1️⃣ The shutdown, health care and court orders for the President to pay SNAP benefits.
2️⃣ My legislation, the No Troops in Our Street Act
3️⃣ Banning the Presidential pardon

And once the government opens up, we can work in a bipartisan basis on the needed reforms for any future extensions.
President Trump and Republicans should take the deal. And if not, please come back with an offer that addresses the cost of health care.
For months, I have been clear: If you want my vote, we have to do something to address the cost of health care. We can open the government today with a simple, one-year extension of healthcare.gov subsidies to keep Michiganders' health care from spiking before Jan 1.
This is the longest shutdown in history. I am working to try and bring this to a resolution, but we need the President to get in the game. To be clear, I am insistent on fighting for people facing as much as a 600% increase in health care costs.
It’s crazy when young officers up and down the chain are seeking legal cover so they don’t get sued one day for what could be illegal strikes.
What does it mean if your name is on this secret list? What’s going to come after you?
From blueberries to asparagus, Michigan farms produce specialty crops that feed our nation and the world. My bill protects our food supply by ensuring that America's specialty crop farmers are getting a fair deal. www.michiganfarmnews.com/sen-slotkin-...
Erin is a single mom and small business owner in Wexford County. She shared her story about how the loss of financial help on her healthcare.gov plan will impact her and her kids, resulting in a $200 a month increase.
Last month, I started the tradition of holding my first constituent coffee here in DC. These serve as an opportunity for my staff and I to hear directly from Michiganders in the U.S. Capitol. If you are ever in Washington, visit www.slotkin.senate.gov/contact/cont... and stop by!
Americans have an internal barometer for things that sound and smell authoritarian.
Jodie from Northern Michigan is going to be directly impacted by the loss of subsidies on her healthcare.gov plan. She sent me this video telling her story.
In 2026, a Detroit couple making $85,000 combined will see their premiums on their healthcare.gov plan go from $728 per month to $2186 per month.

President Trump has been talking about a third term. The constitution is clear, but I have learned to take his musings seriously.
Cleaning up PFAS isn’t a Democrat vs. Republican issue. It’s about our water and our kids. Talk to the people on the ground in Oscoda and Grayling. If you can’t swim in the lakes, if you can’t drink the water, it feels like something has been stolen from you.
I want to make sure the bureaucracy is not holding back the President’s timeline to bring F-15EXs to Selfridge.
A woman from Kalamazoo logged into healthcare.gov and discovered her premiums will increase by 600%. Going from a little over $100/month to $720/month.
She told me she may have to forego health insurance this year.
