Protecting the safety and dignity of women and girls is essential. I’m proud to join the Equality Caucus in calling on the Court to uphold these basic protections.

I was honored to gather with the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and the Democratic Women’s Caucus after the House vote to release the Epstein files. These women deserve justice. I’m working to make sure they get it.
After my AI WISE Act passed through committee, I met with industry leaders from OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft to talk about how AI will impact West Michigan’s local economy.
We need to make sure innovation supports workers and small businesses.
The EPA’s rollback on wetland protections is a serious threat to Michigan’s water and communities. Our families deserve better. I am holding the EPA accountable and fighting for stronger protections – because Michigan’s future depends on it.

Today, my AI Wise Act passed out of the Small Business Committee. It’s commonsense, bipartisan legislation that would make sure small businesses have the resources they need to harness the power of AI - and avoid its pitfalls.
I Joined my colleagues pressing the administration to halt the sudden rollback of the H-2A visas. Our farmers rely on H2A visas for harvest season, and growers are already facing labor shortages.
Let's fix this and keep our food supply moving.
On National Rural Health Day, I am thinking about the families, farmers, and small towns that keep our state running.
Access to care should never depend on your zip code. I introduced the CATCH IT Act, a bill that brings lifesaving preventative health equipment straight to rural communities.
I’m fighting to make sure families don’t see their premiums double next year.
Congress must extend these ACA tax credits now.
Back in DC and ready to get to work for West Michigan. Let’s get these files released. Let’s get justice for survivors and victims.
When SNAP benefits were disrupted during the shutdown, millions of families across the country felt the impact immediately. Food assistance is essential, but for too many people, it still isn’t enough to keep up with rising costs.

Trump promised to make America affordable again. Instead, prices keep rising for families in West Michigan.
That’s why I helped launch the Lower Costs Caucus — to push for real solutions that bring down everyday expenses, not empty slogans.

The government may be reopening, but this deal still leaves families facing skyrocketing healthcare costs. I pushed real solutions — every bipartisan amendment was rejected.

My statement on Republican lawmakers' request that the DOJ oversee Michigan's 2026 elections:
Yesterday at the Democratic Women’s Caucus, I reaffirmed my commitment to West Michigan: your health care is not up for negotiation.
I voted against the reopening deal because it left families behind. I’ll keep fighting for affordable, accessible care — no matter what.
My statement from last night on the swearing in of Congresswoman Adelita Grijavla and our mission to release the Epstein Files. We press on–keeping the victims and their families top of mind in all of this.
Last week I caught up with West Michigan paramedics at my Washington office to voice my continued support for their important work and ensure they feel supported to serve our community.
Today we honor all who’ve served – especially the veterans here in West Michigan who continue to strengthen our communities every day. Thank you for your courage, service, and sacrifice.
I was so proud to help pass a bill to rename the Comstock Park Post Office in his honor.
We are the home of the free because of the brave.
November is Military Family Appreciation Month, and I’m thinking of the Nava family during this reflective time.
After Captain Miguel Justin Nava tragically passed in a helicopter training accident, his family has been working tirelessly to cement his legacy in our West Michigan community.
My priorities remain the same as always — protecting affordable health care and re-opening the government.
