Michigan families are about to see higher electric bills after a $242 million DTE rate increase was approved. At a time when costs are already up, people deserve relief — not higher utility bills.

The hateful and dehumanizing rhetoric coming from the Trump Administration does real harm. It makes families feel unsafe, weakens our communities, and undermines the promise that America is a place of opportunity and dignity for all.
34,000 Michiganders dropped their ACA coverage this year. That’s not a coincidence. When costs go up, people lose care. Health care shouldn’t disappear because Washington plays politics with people’s lives.

Honored to join neighbors and local leaders for the opening of the new MLK Community Center.
This space was shaped by the community, for the community — and it will serve families for generations to come.

I visited Corine’s Cakes in Muskegon Heights to talk about small business challenges, community outreach, and what support in Congress should look like.
The Supreme Court affirmed what we already knew: Trump’s sweeping tariffs are unlawful and small businesses are still paying the price. I'm proud to have introduced the RELIEF Act alongside my colleagues to refund these costs and stand up for Main Street.
I stopped by Dolly’s Delights to enjoy a sweet treat and talk about what it takes to grow a small business in West Michigan.
When President Trump addresses the nation, let’s be clear: Stripping health care from millions who are already struggling is not an accomplishment.
Proud to stand with Sheriff Michelle LaJoye Young and local leaders at the Kent County Sheriff’s Office to announce the $750,000 in federal funding I secured for the Real Time Information Center.
This investment will strengthen public safety and keep our community safe.
Who doesn’t love a good roast? ☕️ I stopped by 24K Gold Coffee at Last Mile Cafe to see their roasting process up close and talk with Cameron about what small business owners are navigating right now — from rising costs to growing their customer base here in West Michigan.
More than 7,000 butterflies from four continents will soon fill Frederik Meijer Gardens.
This annual exhibit brings families, students, and visitors to West Michigan and highlights one of the cultural institutions that makes our region such a special place.

Today I had the honor of presenting a flag to Faye McGhee and her family in memory of her father, Clifton Ernest Chandler, who served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War era. I’m grateful to the Kent County Honor Guard for helping us recognize his service and a life dedicated to our country.
Ramadan Mubarak to all who celebrate!
I had the opportunity to sit down with Muskegon leaders and the Lakeshore Chamber to hear directly about their priorities. Conversations like these help guide my work in Congress and ensure Muskegon has a strong voice in Washington.
What a meaningful conversation tonight with over 9,000 West Michiganders who tuned in for my telephone town hall. Hearing directly from you helps me do my job better. I’m listening, responding with action, and working to hold the Trump Administration accountable.
HAPPENING TODAY @ 5:30 PM: Tune into our Telephone Town Hall! You’ll be able to hear more about the work I’m excited about and ask me questions yourself. Join us!
Data center projects are being proposed in West Michigan.
In this week’s Straight Talk With Scholten, I explain what that means and why community engagement matters.

Working families are paying more for groceries, gas, rent, and utilities, and Donald Trump is only making it worse. House Democrats are fighting to lower costs for American families.
