A $12B bailout won’t erase the chaos this administration has caused for our farmers. It’s a band-aid on a crisis of the president’s own making — and it falls far short of what Argentina has received. Michigan’s agricultural communities deserve better.

Thanks to our fall intern cohort in our Washington D.C. office: Max, Davis, and Sanaya. West Michigan is grateful for your public service!
Today, we honor the memory of soldiers, sailors, and civilians who died on December 7, 1941. We remember the heroes who served that fateful day and commend the veterans who chose to join the fight in the days that followed.
On this day in 1865, the 13th Amendment abolished slavery in the United States, a first step in the long fight for equality for Black Americans. We must never forget the horrors of slavery and stand committed to the ongoing work of expanding justice and opportunity for all.
A big change to our federal student loan system is coming — and it hits women the hardest. New limits could make it harder to enter the careers our communities rely on.
I break it all down in this week’s Straight Talk With Scholten. Watch the full episode at the link below.

At this week’s Small Business Committee hearing, I had the opportunity to question Ms. Lisa Plaggemier about AI and cybersecurity and what small businesses need to stay protected.
On this Giving Tuesday, I’m celebrating the generosity that defines West Michigan. Whether you’re supporting a local nonprofit, pitching in at a food drive, or lending a hand to a neighbor, every act of giving strengthens our community.
Thank you for all you do to lift one another up.
For the first time in 40 years a Michigan farm will supply the White House Christmas tree. Thanks to Korson’s Tree Farms & their amazing crews for bringing a piece of home to the People’s House for the holidays.

Small businesses are the heart of West Michigan.
On Small Business Saturday, I’m grateful for the makers and store owners who keep our communities strong. When you shop locally, you’re investing in your neighbors and the future of our region.
This weekend marks 50 years since West Michigan’s own President Gerald Ford signed the law that would become known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). For decades, this landmark law has opened doors for millions of students with disabilities.

What a way to start the day!
Honored to join the Grand Rapids Turkey Trot this morning and share a few thoughts before the race. West Michigan shows its heart in moments like these — neighbors coming together, families celebrating, and kids leading the way.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families. I’m grateful for those who serve our communities, and as we learn more about this tragic shooting, my heart remains with everyone harmed.

Happy Thanksgiving, West Michigan. Today I’m especially thankful for the strength, generosity, and resilience of our community — and for my family, who reminds me every day why this work matters.
Wishing you and your loved ones a safe, peaceful, and hope-filled holiday.
When our neighbors are in need, West Michigan always lends a helping hand. Grateful to see this year's Turkey Trot collecting food to support families across our community.

I am deeply worried and saddened by the bomb threat made against Sen. Elissa Slotkin’s home. Political violence has no place in America.
Our leaders must be safe so they can serve Michigan without fear. www.detroitnews.com/story/news/p...
