One story stood out: a personal trainer who helps people through addiction recovery said funding freezes are making it harder and harder for them to get the support they need. (2/2)

I joined the Benton Harbor Community Development Corporation hosted by PresentPillars for a conversation on the Big Beautiful Bill and what it means for local non-profits on feeding kids, mental health, and the squeeze non-profits will feel as federal funding ends for key programs. (1/2)
Since I sit on a number of national security committees in the Senate, we’ll hold a number of these events over the next month to get back to basics on what Michiganders expect from their government when it comes to safety and security. (3/3)
Too often, the policies we make in Washington are disconnected from what people on the ground actually think about and care about. (2/3)
While I was in Benton Harbor and St. Joseph, I took the opportunity to do something different: I sat down with Michiganders from all kinds of backgrounds to hear what they want from their government on national security and foreign policy. (1/3)
President Trump wants to let China buy some of our most sophisticated AI chips. This is the equivalent of President Truman giving Russia some of our best nuclear blueprints for a nuclear weapon in the middle of the Cold War.
The perception is that members of Congress aren’t working for you. They have access to classified information and then go and trade stocks based on that information. It has to stop. Ban insider stock trading and ban Corporate PAC donations.
We had important conversations on job training and recruitment, manufacturing, and what it takes to keep America competitive.
Today’s visit to @WhirlpoolCorp in St. Joseph highlighted the innovation, jobs, and global impact rooted right here in Michigan. Whirlpool is the only American appliance manufacturer where 80% of products sold in the U.S. are made in the U.S.
At Corewell Children’s Hospital, I heard from health care leaders and professionals about how the President's health care cuts could impact their services.

If ACA premium tax credits expire, it would be a disaster for working families who are already being squeezed by high prices.
Health coverage costs would skyrocket for 20 million Americans, and millions more would lose coverage altogether. We must act before it's too late.
Yesterday, I sat down with leaders of the @naacpgr, where we discussed the details of Trump's "Big, Beautiful, Bill" -- including kicking people off health care or raising their costs, food stamps, and a whole range of environmental concerns. Thanks to the Baxter Community Center for hosting us!
We need to ban partisan gerrymandering now.
I'm deeply worried that every single Michigander is going to get that letter saying that private employer-provided insurance you have is going up. Everyone's going to pay. You're either at risk of losing your care, or you're at risk of paying more for the insurance you already have.
Especially this year, it was so important I join everyone at the Grand Rapids Hispanic Festival. Great food, music and people! If you didn't go this year, be sure to go next year, and support all the small businesses that make this event possible.
Had a great time at the 47th Annual Hispanic Festival in Grand Rapids hosted by the Hispanic Center. It was great to join so many Michiganders in recognizing the contributions of our Hispanic communities and to listen to the stories, fears, challenges, and dreams that continue to shape West MI.
In our Intel Briefing this week, we hit three important things I am watching closely:
1️⃣ Trump’s latest tariffs and declining US manufacturing jobs
2️⃣ The national security threat of selling AI chips to China
3️⃣ Banning corporate PACs and Members of Congress from trading stocks

President Trump’s tariffs are doing the opposite of lowering costs and creating manufacturing jobs.

I’m one of just six Senators who have never taken corporate PAC checks. Our campaign finance system is broken.
If we want to regain the trust of Americans on the left, right and center, it’s a no brainer: ban corporate PAC donations to anyone running for office.
