When people are facing eviction, navigating family issues, or trying to access benefits, having legal help matters. I appreciated the chance to sit down with the Michigan State Bar Foundation to talk about how we can strengthen access to justice across Michigan.

When the cost of a tank starts shaping your week, that’s a problem. I’m hearing that more and more from drivers back home. West Michigan, know that I am fighting to lower costs for you every single day. www.woodtv.com/news/kent-co...

West Michigan drivers look for deals as gas prices rise

People planning to hit the roads for spring break will see significantly higher gas prices this year.

Proud to see both the men’s and women’s teams at the University of Michigan heading to the Elite Eight — keep making West Michigan proud. Go Blue!

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 28(source)

West Michiganders never fail to show up for their community. From blood donors to neighbors lending a hand, it’s what keeps our communities strong. www.wzzm13.com/article/news...

'Somebody gave blood so I could be alive' | West Michigan librarian marks 600th transfusion

Yasmeen Anis-Shah has relied on blood transfusions since she was 6 months old. Now she's thanking the donors who have kept her alive.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 28(source)

I had the opportunity to sit down with Trinity Health to discuss how programs like 340B play a key role in lowering costs and expanding access to care.

Equal Pay Day is a reminder that women are still working longer to earn less. I’m fighting to change that by supporting commonsense solutions like the Paycheck Fairness Act and building an economy where everyone is paid fairly for their work.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 27(source)

Sending out my weekly newsletter helps me stay transparent and accountable to YOU. Make sure you’re subscribed to stay in the loop about how I’m working for West Michigan in D.C.! scholten.house.gov/contact/news...

Flooding hit earlier this month, but West Michigan small businesses are resilient. Glad to see Schnitz Deli reopening. www.woodtv.com/news/grand-r...

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 26(source)

Our elections are secure and noncitizen voting is illegal. In fact, getting struck by lightning is more common than noncitizen voting. The SAVE Act claims to solve a problem that doesn't exist while putting millions of eligible Americans' votes at risk.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 26(source)

Women are still paid less than men for the same work, and the gap is getting worse. On Equal Pay Day, I’m standing with my colleagues to push for equal pay for equal work and finally close the wage gap.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 25(source)

The deadline for the Congressional Art Competition is coming up fast! 🎨 If you’re a student artist in West Michigan, I want to see your work. Submit your piece for a chance to have it displayed in the U.S. Capitol and represent our community.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 25(source)

When we cut support for manufacturers, we’re cutting into American competitiveness. Programs like MMTC help our small businesses stay ahead, and pulling that funding puts jobs and innovation at risk here at home.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 25(source)

We can’t stay competitive globally if we fall behind on our own investments. Slashing R&D funding weakens our edge, and I’m pushing to make sure America continues to lead in innovation.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 25(source)

It’s happening! West Michigan’s favorite time machine, the Getty Drive-In Theatre, is reopening in Muskegon this Friday! www.mlive.com/news/muskego...

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 24(source)

President Trump and Congressional Republicans are putting millions at risk by denying an extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credits. We need to put the people who elected us first.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 24(source)

Spring in West Michigan means the walleye run is back on the Muskegon River. The DNR’s annual egg collection helps keep our waters healthy and our fish populations strong. www.woodtv.com/news/newaygo...

DNR sets date range for walleye egg collection on Muskegon River

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is set to start its annual walleye egg collection on the Muskegon River.

My letter to Inspector General Cuffari requesting an investigation into Mr. Sean Plankey.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govMar 24(source)

When taxpayer dollars are spent on luxury items, vanity projects, or wasteful travel, you have every right to ask questions. I’m going to keep fighting for transparency, accountability, and responsible spending. Watch the full episode of Straight Talk With Scholten on YouTube.
