Extremists are trying to make it harder for Americans to make their voices heard and vote. Today, @housedemocrats.bsky.social are fighting back. We’re reintroducing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to ensure all of our neighbors, regardless of zip code, have access to the ballot box.
Tonight, Donald Trump will stand before Congress and deliver his vision for our country. Behind the slogans and the empty promises, his agenda will devastate women and families across America. And nowhere is that clearer than in his and House Republicans’ relentless efforts to gut Medicaid.
As millions of Americans fear about the future of their access to health care, Vanessa’s presence serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of tireless advocacy in the fight to expand and protect health care access.
I invited Vanessa Greene, a distinguished community leader and advocate for equitable health care access, to Trump’s address to Congress tonight. She serves as the CEO of Grand Rapids African American Health Institute and is a trailblazer in achieving equity in health care. 🧵
President Trump ran on the claim that his focus was to lower costs. The tariffs he’s enacting today do anything BUT that — in fact, they do the exact OPPOSITE. These tariffs are expected to cost the average family an extra $1,200 a year. 📈
We have 7 legislative days to pass a budget and avoid a government shutdown. Rather than focus on that, my Republican colleagues are — once again — having us vote on the rights of appliances. It's time to get to work for the American PEOPLE, not our appliances.
For countless West Michigan families, Trump’s chaotic funding cuts aren’t political — they’re deeply personal. I’m pushing back on the Trump Administration’s harmful policies that could make life harder for families like Andrew’s. It’s unacceptable.
I'm hearing directly from West Michiganders who are concerned over these cuts to NOAA and how it will impact our country's weather forecasting resources. The Trump Admin must rethink these brazen layoffs to preserve the integrity of our federal workforce and the crucial services it provides.🧵
During Women’s History Month, we celebrate the women who have built, strengthened, and inspired our country. Both known and unknown, their legacies have shaped the world for the better. As Vice Chair of the @demwomencaucus.bsky.social, I honor this history by continuing to fight for women today.
While #NationalReadingMonth doesn’t officially start until tomorrow, the kiddos at Dickinson Academy, Buchanan Elementary, and Gerald R. Ford Academic Center BOOKED it to their libraries and started turning pages today! We just couldn’t wait! It was so fun to read with these bright young students. 📚
As the daughter of a sports reporter, I know the importance of public broadcasting services to keeping folks informed and entertained. I met with Jim Rademaker from WGVU to ensure their concerns are heard about cuts to funding and a potential government shutdown. Let’s keep public radio on the air!📡
In commemoration of Black History Month, I took to the House floor to highlight some incredible Black West Michiganders integral to the history of our community. I was honored to speak about these trailblazers & feel proud to represent a district where we know our diversity is what makes us great.
Franchisees are the bedrock of small businesses across the country and I was happy to meet with McDonald’s franchisees today to talk all things small business. As a Small Business Committee member, I’m committed to ensuring entrepreneurs & small business owners have the support they need to thrive.
