No matter our politics, Americans facing threats from foreign countries deserve to be protected. I’m concerned by this move by President Trump that puts former officials from his first administration at risk.

We didn't stand for it then, and we won't stand for it this time.
Let's be clear, America has the right to enforce our immigration laws, but HOW we do it matters. ICE is required to follow the law, and racial profiling is still illegal. We've seen a fact pattern like this play out here in Grand Rapids during the first Trump term. 🧵
And no matter what the current nominee for Defense Secretary believes, women service members belong in our military just as much as men do.
On this day in 2013, women servicemembers were finally permitted to enter direct combat – an important equalizing step for those willing to serve our country.
I thank the servicewomen that have and are fighting for our freedom. Your sacrifices do not go unnoticed.
Affordable housing is the bedrock upon which our diverse communities are able to grow and flourish. I was happy to host Pat Combs, a career-long leader in local real estate, to discuss the multitude of ways we can increase access to affordable housing in MI-03.
At a time of fragile economic recovery, we need confidence and clarity instead. I'll never stop working towards common sense policies that ensure all of America's diverse talent can thrive.
It not only dismantled government DEI agencies but revoked a 1965 executive order prohibiting government contractors from discriminating against employees and applicants. This order is creating fear and confusion in the government and private sector alike.
We need a real, solutions-based conversation in this country about how to continue to ensure that the best and brightest rise to the top. Trump's abrupt DEI order ain't it, folks.
Merit-based hiring should always be the practice — whether in government, the military, or the private sector. That's why so many companies have implemented policies over the years to remove barriers preventing the most qualified candidates from getting the job, because of their race or gender.
There's A LOT going on right now. Let's get into the weeds of Trump's recent executive order to end DEI efforts in federal offices. 🧵

Let’s bring these folks here, who are ready to help make America even greater!
President Trump must make good on our promise to our allies, honor our commitment to these individuals, and admit them. They have already undergone thorough vetting and preparation. MI-03 is home to so many wonderful Afghan families.
Over 1,600 Afghans, including those who risked their lives supporting our service members and the family members of U.S. military members, have had their flights canceled despite having the approval to relocate to the U.S., including here in Michigan. This is devastating.
Today we celebrate the anniversary of the 24th Amendment and the subsequent ending of poll taxes, which made it harder for poor — mainly Black Americans — to vote.
Let us continue working to expand access to the ballot box to ensure every American voter’s voice is heard.
Our children deserve to grow up without fear of being killed by gun violence.
This National Gun Violence Survivors Week, we honor the brave survivors of gun violence while remaining steadfast in our work toward a future free of gun violence altogether.
Today should be Roe v. Wade's 52nd anniversary.
Since it's been overturned:
✖️Residents in over 1/3 of U.S. counties have little or no access to maternity care
✖️Maternal mortality is increasing, especially for BIPOC women
American women deserve their reproductive rights back.
I will be putting together a summary and response to Trump's first week in office in my weekly newsletter, and I encourage you to subscribe to stay in touch.
My office is monitoring and tracking every executive order issued by President Trump.
West Michiganders remain my top priority, and we will respond as necessary to the president's policies on behalf of MI-03. 🧵
My statement on the dismissal of Admiral Linda L. Fagan from her role as Commandant of the United States Coast Guard.
