We cannot turn our backs on our ally Ukraine. I stood alongside West Michiganders to call on the Trump Administration to fully affirm our nation’s commitment to democracy by standing up to Russia and its autocratic leader. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
Folds of Honor does incredible work in providing educational scholarships to the children and spouses of America’s fallen and disabled service members and first responders. It was an honor for me to speak at the Folds of Honor Gala and honor the incredible recipients of this year’s awards.
The $25 million federal grant to rebuild the East Beltline Bridge will be transformative for our community. The bridge has long needed a replacement, and I was honored to lead the charge to secure this crucial funding. Read more about the project here. www.fox17online.com/news/local-n...
After a productive telephone town hall earlier this week, we had a great community gathering in Cannon Township with local leaders and community members. Thank you for your thoughtful questions on federal funding cuts, job losses, and environmental protections. 🧵
I’m traveling across the district this week to talk to small business owners about how I can continue advocating for entrepreneurs at the federal level. Today I’m in Cannon Township at Acme Tire and Auto — a West Michigan institution since 1953.
This investment is a game-changer for Grand Rapids to ensure our infrastructure is safer, more accessible, and built to last. Thank you to our state and local partners who helped get this across the finish line, let’s keep bridging communities together!
The East Beltline Bridge in Grand Rapids — once a rural roadway — is now a major thoroughfare that over 50K vehicles traverse every day. That’s why I’m thrilled to announce a $25 million federal grant I helped secure that will help fund a much-needed replacement of the bridge over I-96. 🧵
This move will devastate hundreds of children and families right here in West Michigan. These funds were appropriated by the American people through Congress, so I’m working with my colleagues in Congress push back. www.woodtv.com/news/michiga...
I spoke with local leaders from Byron Township about the need for modernized infrastructure that serves our neighbors. As a member of @transportdems.bsky.social, I’m pushing back on cuts to crucial funding that would improve and modernize our communities.
I had a tough time deciding which books to get for my two boys today at Rolling Rabbit Bookstore — their selection is amazing! It’s always great to support one of West Michigan’s woman-owned small businesses.
Black-owned small business owners are transforming our local economy, and I’m determined to support them. I hosted a Black business roundtable at GRCCT to hear from entrepreneurs who are facing uncertainty because of the Trump Administration’s actions. I’ll always fight for our small businesses.
We're the home of the free because of the brave. It was so meaningful today to thank dozens of West Michigan’s Black veterans for their service and recommit to advocating for veterans’ health care, housing, and other support services.
The dedicated men and women at the Michigan State Police Crime Lab use their STEM skills daily to help solve tough crimes and keep our community safer. This is an incredible asset to our community. Thanks for the great visit and tour!
In Grand Rapids, @rephaleystevens.bsky.social, East Grand Rapids Mayor Favale and I visited the MI State Police Crime Lab to see how they use state-of-the-art technology to keep our communities safe. I’m determined to support our first responders so they can continue protecting West Michiganders.🧵
What a meaningful conversation tonight with 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.
