Trump promised to make America affordable again. Instead, prices keep rising for families in West Michigan. That’s why I helped launch the Lower Costs Caucus — to push for real solutions that bring down everyday expenses, not empty slogans. www.npr.org/2025/11/14/n...

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 14(source)

The government may be reopening, but this deal still leaves families facing skyrocketing healthcare costs. I pushed real solutions — every bipartisan amendment was rejected. For the full breakdown, the long-form episode is on Youtube and linked below. youtu.be/qmp5LmWuvYg?...

My statement on Republican lawmakers' request that the DOJ oversee Michigan's 2026 elections:

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 13(source)

Yesterday at the Democratic Women’s Caucus, I reaffirmed my commitment to West Michigan: your health care is not up for negotiation. I voted against the reopening deal because it left families behind. I’ll keep fighting for affordable, accessible care — no matter what.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 13(source)

My statement from last night on the swearing in of Congresswoman Adelita Grijavla and our mission to release the Epstein Files. We press on–keeping the victims and their families top of mind in all of this.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 12(source)

Last week I caught up with West Michigan paramedics at my Washington office to voice my continued support for their important work and ensure they feel supported to serve our community.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 11(source)

Today we honor all who’ve served – especially the veterans here in West Michigan who continue to strengthen our communities every day. Thank you for your courage, service, and sacrifice.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 10(source)

I was so proud to help pass a bill to rename the Comstock Park Post Office in his honor. We are the home of the free because of the brave.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 10(source)

November is Military Family Appreciation Month, and I’m thinking of the Nava family during this reflective time. After Captain Miguel Justin Nava tragically passed in a helicopter training accident, his family has been working tirelessly to cement his legacy in our West Michigan community.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 10(source)

My priorities remain the same as always — protecting affordable health care and re-opening the government.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 10(source)

Reminder: Republicans had a choice. They could have grounded billionaire jets, but they chose to ground the American people instead. www.cnbc.com/2025/11/08/g...

Transportation Sec. Duffy warns air travel will be 'reduced to a trickle,' with flight cancellations worsening as the shutdown drags on

Airlines will have to slash hundreds of more flights if shutdown continues into next week.

Republicans are using the courts to block full SNAP benefits while families in West Michigan face uncertainty about their next meal. Food is not optional — stop taking it off the table. www.axios.com/2025/11/09/t...

Trump administration orders states "undo" full SNAP benefits

The Trump administration is fiercely fighting a judge's order to fully fund SNAP benefits.

It’s disheartening to know that both our president and the highest court in the land are taking extreme measures to withhold food from low-income Americans. We are so much better than this. apnews.com/article/snap...

Supreme Court issues emergency order to block full SNAP food aid payments

The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments amid the government shutdown.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 8(source)

This is unprecedented. Sec. Duffy and the FAA must be transparent about this decision and explain how this will impact our aviation efficiency and safety. It’s long past time to open the government. We’re losing important progress my T&I colleagues have made to advance aviation safety.

What Travelers Need to Know About the Flight Cuts Tied to the Shutdown

Heartbroken to learn of the passing of West Michigan's own Marshawn Kneeland. I'm praying for his family during this difficult time. www.fox17online.com/sports/marsh...

Marshawn Kneeland, Dallas Cowboys player and Godwin Heights alum, dies at 24

Marshawn Kneeland, a Godwin Heights High School and Western Michigan Univeristy alum who was playing in the NFL, has passed away at the age of 24.

For millions of Americans who struggle to afford their electric bills, LIHEAP is a lifeline. However, due to the inaction of Congress, this lifeline could be severed. Let’s talk more about LIHEAP on this week’s episode of Straight Talk With Scholten. Watch and subscribe below.

Rep. Hillary Scholten@scholten.house.govNov 6(source)

Now, it’s been a few years since I’ve practiced as an attorney, but a basic tenet of our legal system is this: defying a court order is breaking the law. That’s exactly what Trump is doing by withholding funding specifically allocated for SNAP emergencies. The president must release the funds now.
