Thank you, Mayas, for the thoughtful conversation and for inspiring the next generation of engaged citizens.
Watch: youtu.be/kXgLibJYfPY
Talking with Michiganders of all backgrounds and ages is one of my favorite parts of the job, and a few weeks ago, Mayas Smith, a student heading to college and host of Young Citizens Academy, on Bloomfield Community Television reached out for an interview and I was happy to agree.
Check current border wait times before your trip: bwt.cbp.gov/details/0338...
From our truckers and tourists to cars and motorcycles -- after many ups and downs, the Gordie Howe Bridge is open for business. This bridge will further connect us economically and culturally to our neighbors in Canada, and I can't wait to drive across it myself soon.

Sen. Slotkin explains how Trump’s new tariffs will likely increase the cost of prescription drugs:
President Trump’s authoritarian playbook is built on sowing doubt in our elections before votes are even cast. I’m working to prepare for scenarios to protect free and fair elections.
I pressed a Trump nominee: If a domestic violence shelter receives a federal grant, but also post complaints about the cutting of domestic violence funding, will that put them at risk of being labeled anti-American? They would not answer directly.
This Administration is weaponizing federal grants against individuals and organizations who may disagree with them.
President Trump's tariffs on generic drugs risk making prescriptions more expensive. If President Trump wanted to lower drug costs, we could do it tomorrow: let Medicare negotiate every drug price.
We also discussed the trilateral talks, the importance of implementation of the planned pilot zones, and the need for U.S. assistance to the Lebanese Armed Forces to enable Hezbollah's disarmament.
Last week, I met with President Aoun again after our meeting in Beirut in February. We discussed concerns of Michiganders who had family members killed and homes destroyed by Israeli strikes -- and the need for documentation and accountability for this destruction, particularly in southern Lebanon.
We must listen to what President Trump is saying about elections. It’s right out of an authoritarian playbook.
What can the bipartisan housing bill do for our veterans? I break it down.
Creating jobs. Investing in growth and infrastructure. And supporting small businesses.
Michiganders across our state are rolling up their sleeves to move us forward on all those fronts -- and I saw it in action this month from Mount Clemens to Auburn Hills to Warren.
Happy 325th Birthday, Detroit! Detroit is a city built on grit, innovation, and unwavering spirit.
In this week's Intel Briefing, we dig into 3 important topics:
1️⃣ The price of health care and prescription drugs
2️⃣ Banning Chinese cars in America
3️⃣ Pres. Trump's continued playbook to sow doubt in our elections and what role you can play
Thankfully, members of law enforcement who investigate these incidents take it seriously, because violence and threats of violence have no place in our politics.
Democrat, Independent or Republican, the men and women who go into public service choose to do the hard, unglamorous job of making government work for people. They deserve respect and safety.
