Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
Turning contamination into opportunity. This project will help clean up Harbor Island, protect our water, and give the community back a space they can safely enjoy.
Proud to congratulate my friend and former colleague Abigail Spanberger on her inauguration as Virginia’s first-ever woman Governor. Seeing more women leading at the highest levels matters, and I know she will deliver for Virginians.
In this week’s Straight Talk With Scholten, I talk about Congress’s responsibility to hold ICE accountable. I also explain why transparency and oversight matter.

My statement on President Trump threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act.
More than $1 million is headed to Grand Rapids to upgrade the Water Resource Recovery Facility’s UV disinfection system. This investment will protect public health, keep our water clean, and help safeguard the Grand River and Lake Michigan for future generations.
I introduced a bipartisan bill to make sure workers with vocational training, certifications, and apprenticeships are counted in federal workforce data. If we want to invest smarter and create good-paying jobs, we have to recognize every path to success.

When emergencies happen, seconds matter. This investment for the Real Time Intelligence Center helps local agencies share information faster, respond more effectively, and keep families and first responders safe.
Already 24,000 fewer Michiganders have signed up for ACA plans compared with last year. When insurance gets more expensive, families can’t get the care they need. I’ll keep fighting to lower health care costs and protect affordable coverage for everyone.

My statement on the investigation into Senator Elissa Slotkin.
Patients deserve privacy, dignity, and safety when they seek health care. No one should be harassed or intimidated outside a clinic. Protecting access to care means making sure people can get the services they need without fear or disruption.
I met with Delta frontline crew members to discuss the critical role aviation workers play in identifying and preventing human trafficking. I’m grateful for their leadership in protecting vulnerable people, supporting survivors, and helping hold traffickers accountable.
Our truckers make the world go round, especially here in West Michigan. I spoke with the Truckload Carriers Association about infrastructure funding, workforce development, and what drivers need to do their jobs safely and efficiently.
We’ve got serious work to do in DC this week so I needed backup! So glad to have two of West Michigan’s finest young men by my side this week as I do this work !
Want to thank a veteran this Valentine’s Day? Send in a valentine to our Grand Rapids office by February 7th! We’ll deliver all of them on our Valentine’s Day visit to our veterans. There’s nothing quite like a handwritten note to share our heartfelt gratitude with those who served our country.

Families rely on the Coast Guard when emergencies happen on Lake Michigan. Increased law enforcement efforts should not come at the expense of search and rescue missions or operations at Coast Guard stations in Muskegon and Grand Haven.

ICE made over 2,300 arrests in Michigan last year. In West Michigan, nearly three-quarters of those arrested had no criminal record — directly contradicting President Trump’s stated priorities. These actions highlight the urgent need for oversight, transparency, and accountability.
Thank you to the West Michigan Alzheimer’s Association for hosting Coffee with Congress.
Alzheimer’s and dementia affect so many Michigan families, and I am grateful to the advocates and volunteers pushing for stronger research, better care, and real support for caregivers.
Congratulations to Kent Syverud on being selected as the next President of the University of Michigan. As a UM alum and experienced leader in higher education, I’m confident he’ll bring thoughtful leadership and commitment to academic excellence to this role. Go Blue!
