In each, we discussed the deep bonds between the American people and the Canadian people, the Gordie Howe Bridge, and the threat of Chinese Communist Party vehicles.

I was in Toronto to reaffirm that point. And I appreciated the dialogue with the Foreign Minister Anita Anand, Minister of Industry Melanie Joy, and Minister of Infrastructure Grego Rrobertson.
The U.S.-Canada relationship is still critically important, especially to Michigan. Despite the recent tension in that relationship, I strongly believe our two nations must work together to address the big problems we face.
The United States and Canada are in a tough moment right now. But our overlapping interests are bigger than any one president. As Michigan's Senator, I know that the bond between the American people and Canadian people is deep, and it will endure. Because we are stronger when we work together.
In addition to reaffirming my commitment to that relationship, we discussed the importance of the Gordie Howe Bridge to both nations, and I raised my concerns about the threat of Chinese cars coming into North America.
There are many Americans, and especially Michiganders, who care deeply about the U.S.-Canada relationship. Our lives, economies, and security are intertwined.
That's why I thought it was so important to travel to Toronto to meet with Prime Minister @MarkJCarney.
In this week's Intel Briefing, we go deep on 3 topics:
1️⃣ What was decided at the China summit
2️⃣ Weakened drinking water standards around forever chemicals
3️⃣ Potential taxpayer funding for the ballroom and a DOJ anti-weaponization fund

Some of the residents in Oscoda, MI, can't drink their water or swim in their lake due to PFAS. And they've been told to wait another five-years, after twenty years of waiting on the Air Force for proper cleanup. We owe it to them to step up.

Despite this setback in the fight against forever chemicals like PFAS, this isn’t over. Michigan will keep fighting for safe, clean water.
President Trump's apparent capitulation to the Chinese government on this issue makes it even more urgent that the Senate passes our bill immediately. We need to protect America's land and our national security.
Congresswoman Kristen McDonald Rivet and I have a bipartisan bill to prevent CCP purchases of Michigan's farmland, which has passed the House in the Farm Bill.
While we are still learning the full results of President Trump's summit with President Xi, this is a clear step backward and a full 180 from his first term. American farmland should be for American farmers -- not for the Chinese Communist Party.
Michigan communities like Flint, Oscoda, and Grayling know what it means to lose access to safe drinking water. For all those Michiganders who’ve worked on this issue, know that I am with you in this fight. This isn’t over.

PFAS, or forever chemicals, poison our water, our soil, and our bodies and they don't go away. The EPA set limits to keep us safe, and now this Administration wants to throw that out the window.
The country pays more for his choices, while he milks the cow that is the U.S. government to enrich himself and his allies.

and now a $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund specifically designed to enrich his allies. All while new disclosures reveal he *personally traded* between $220-$750 million in stocks so far this year, often right before his Administration strikes a deal that spikes the stock price.
We’ve got so much churn in our country right now. So what is President Trump focusing on this week? Asking taxpayers for $1 billion to build his ballroom (which he previously claimed would be privately funded),
Every American deserves to feel safe in their house of worship. This attack at the Islamic Center of San Diego was an act of hate and Islamophobia, and our hearts go out to the families of those impacted. Every faith has the right to worship in peace and feel free from fear.
It’s summer and the cost of a grill has doubled in just a few years. I break down why.
