Ahead of the State of the Union, no matter what President Trump says, the average person understands they're paying more for food, more for health care, more for housing, and more for energy.

The American people are simply asking for the truth, and Congress passed a bipartisan law to release the full Epstein Files. It’s impossible to understand the Trump Administration ignoring the law and redacting so heavily unless they’re hiding something.

If Michiganders are in Mexico, sign up now for the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program. This allows the U.S. government to contact you regarding urgent updates in the region.

We need trade policy that drives costs down, protects our jobs, and provides certainty. This is especially true for the crown jewels of Michigan's economy: our auto companies and our agricultural industry.
Our Constitution makes clear that only Congress can levy tariffs or raise taxes. Earlier today, the Supreme Court confirmed it, including justices President Trump himself nominated. He now needs to abide by the law.
Congratulations to my good friend, @abigailspanberger.com on being tapped to give this year's Democratic Response to the SOTU. Abigail understands what's at stake in this moment and I know she'll rise to the occasion.

We’re supposed to have coequal branches of government. It’s time to step up.
Alienating allies is bad for the U.S. and bad for our national security.
It was true last year, when I talked to Fox News, and it is true now. The SAVE Act makes it harder for eligible Michiganders to vote.

A look inside the West Michigan plant that makes the yellow pigment that goes into the paint on our roads. From the cars we own to the yellow pigment that marks the roads we drive, I want it made right here in America. My bipartisan bill with Rep. Hillary Scholten does just that.
Canceling the Gordie Howe Bridge will have serious repercussions. Higher costs for Michigan businesses, less secure supply chains, and ultimately, fewer jobs.
It wasn’t until years after his hockey career was over that Taffy revealed his heritage he and his family had kept secret to avoid discrimination and being sent to an Indian Boarding School. This is an important reminder that we have come so far--- and still have a ways to go.
Taffy Abel. 102 years ago, he became the first U.S. flag bearer and was also the first Native American athlete to compete in the Winter Olympics.
He was a Yooper—born in Sault Ste. Marie to an Ojibwe mother and a French-Canadian father.

In his second term, Trump has hit Canada with aggressive tariffs and repeatedly said it should become the “51st state.”
In an escalation of this trade war, he’s threatening to stop the opening of a new U.S.-Canada bridge until his demands are met.
I worked in a bipartisan way to ban cell phones during instructional time at all DOD-run schools. This is an important first step, and parents across the country are demanding action to help our kids learn. We should ban them in every K-12 school nationwide.
We could declare a housing emergency. We could make health care make sense. But the federal government is not doing those things, and people are not happy.
It is essential that the Gordie Howe International Bridge open as planned later this year. www.thealpenanews.com/news/2026/02...
Wishing those celebrating in Michigan and around the world, a safe, peaceful, and reflective start to Ramadan. Ramadan Mubarak!
I am grateful for Rev. Jackson’s unwavering commitment to justice, equality and making the world a better place. May his legacy of service live on.
