Today I met with SMART Local Union #7 to talk about growing apprenticeship pathways, supporting the next generation of workers, and protecting the good-paying union jobs families rely on. When we invest in workers, we invest in our communities.
I’m always looking for ways to hear directly from young people in our community. If you’re a high school student in West Michigan, apply to join my 2026 Congressional Youth Advisory Council.
I joined Grand Rapids Public Schools as they launched the first electric school buses in district history. I was proud to help secure $5.2 million through the EPA Clean School Bus Program to make this possible. Let’s get kids to school safely and with clean air to breathe!
It was great to meet with students from East Kentwood High School. I always enjoy hearing from young people who are engaged, asking thoughtful questions, and thinking about how they can make a difference in their communities. The future of West Michigan is bright.

My heart is with everyone across West Michigan impacted by the severe flooding. Please stay safe, follow local guidance, and do not drive through flooded roads. If you need assistance or support navigating federal resources, please reach out to my office. We are here to help.

Great meeting with the Joint Action Committee today to talk through key priorities, from reproductive freedom to combating antisemitism and strengthening gun safety. I’ll keep working to translate these conversations into action for West Michigan.
Trump’s attempt to terminate TPS would be life-threatening for the 350,000+ Haitian nationals in our country & the communities they support. I voted YES on @RepPressley’s legislation to extend Haiti TPS and provide our neighbors with the critical protections they deserve.

My thoughts and prayers are with the loved ones of the victims as we remember the lives lost and the survivors forever changed by the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing. We honor their strength, the courage of first responders, and a community that came together in the face of tragedy.
Proud to have @Google endorse my AI for Main Street Act and AI WISE Act. These bipartisan bills will help connect small businesses with the tools and training they need to compete, grow, and keep up with a changing economy. It’s about making sure Main Street isn’t left behind.
Our tool and die makers are the backbone of American manufacturing, and investing in skilled trades is key to keeping that strength right here in West Michigan. Thank you to Walker Tool and Die for having me today!
