The Supreme Court again attacked the right to fair representation in Congress. By again slicing away at the protections of the Voting Rights Act, communities of color in Michigan and across the country could see their voices diminished and lose the ability to elect a representative of their choice.

I have a real problem with political gerrymandering. Last week, the Supreme Court ruled to limit parts of the Voting Rights Act. Ultimately, this will make it easier for states to dilute the votes of Black voters and other minority groups.
We need to outlaw gerrymandering. Period.
The risk of Chinese cars being hacked and remotely controlled is not just theoretical. That’s why Senator Moreno and I have introduced a bill to ban them in the United States.

I’m so impressed by my friend Senator Elissa Slotkin protecting our democracy and destroying Pete Hegseth!
The Pentagon is asking for a $1.4 trillion budget next year. It’s an astronomical amount of money. It is our responsibility to push back and understand exactly what they’re spending it on and whether it will actually prepare us for the future.

"Dude, just answer the question." Slotkin pressed Pete Hegseth on troops at polls in the midterm elections. https://www.wlns.com/news/politics/senate-hearing-defense-budget/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=bluesky_
Senator Moreno and I don’t agree on everything. But as midwesterners, we agree that Chinese cars are both a national security and economic security issue.
In this week’s Intel Brief, we dig into a few big topics:
1️⃣ An update on the war in Iran
2️⃣ The status of U.S.-China relations, and why it matters
3️⃣ My bipartisan bill to ban Chinese vehicles from the U.S.
4️⃣ The Supreme Court decision on the Voting Rights Act

This is a good first step, and I'm pleased to see the Senate take bipartisan action that impacts the Senate. Now we need to pass a wider-reaching law, with teeth, to ensure ALL Members of Congress, their staff, and Executive branch officials are banned from insider trading on prediction markets.
Michigan has watched as thousands of manufacturing jobs moved offshore to China. That's because the Chinese Communist Party is subsidizing its products, flooding the market and creating a monopoly. We can never let that happen to Michigan's auto industry and our workers.
The level of intimidation we’re seeing from the President of the United States is straight out of the authoritarian playbook.
I do not believe there's any reason why the active duty military should ever be deployed to the polls. Secretary Hegseth couldn’t even agree with that.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) joins Katy Tur to share her reaction to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's testimony today where she asked whether he would deploy troops to the polls in the 2026 midterm elections if President Trump were to order him to do so.

I asked Secretary Hegseth if he would deploy the uniform military to our polls to collect voter rolls or machines. It wasn’t a hypothetical question, it was based on an executive order President Trump drafted but didn’t sign in 2020.
He refused to answer.

Throughout our hearing, Secretary Hegseth expected the American people to just pretend like they don't know that there's a problem with the war in Iran. Meanwhile, gas is $4.99 a gallon.
The American people aren’t stupid.
Because of the war in Iran, gas in Michigan is $4.99. The cost of things like fertilizer and airline tickets keeps going up. Secretary Hegseth was gung-ho about this war, and now we're at a stalemate, and the American public is feeling it in their pocketbooks.

SLOTKIN: If Trump asks you to seize voting machines during the 2026 election, will you stand up for the Constitution and say no?
HEGSETH: It's yet another gotcha hypothetical, which is your speciality
SLOTKIN: The guy you're performing for right now says he wishes he signed that EO in 2020!

Sen Slotkin: "The administration has taken military action in 10 different places in the world…The difference with this war with Iran, is that the American public is feeling it in their pocketbooks.
