Our work should be laser-focused on lowering costs at the grocery store and gas station, not defunding Sesame Street. In the dead of the night, Republicans voted to rip funding away from public media outlets like WGVU, a cornerstone of West Michigan’s local news.
I voted no.

I voted no on HR 4016 because this bill hands Trump even MORE unchecked power. I will not and cannot support that.
Playing for a great cause was good enough, but a Team Congress WIN topped the night off! Another fun-filled Congressional Women’s Softball Game for the Young Survival Coalition in the books! 🥎
As concerns continue to rise about President Trump and House Republicans covering up the Epstein files, it's more important than ever that we have independent investigators looking out for the American people.
That’s exactly what my bill, the Integrity in Government Act, will do.
The next town hall in my Summer Town Hall Series is in Rockford on July 25th! For more info and to RSVP, visit scholten.house.gov/townhall.
We can have a safe and secure border without sacrificing our values.
That’s why I’m a proud cosponsor of the bipartisan, comprehensive Dignity Act that would provide legal status and protections for undocumented immigrants; fund and reform CBP; and update our asylum and visa systems.
Parks and recreational spaces are essential to healthy and sustainable communities in MI-03 and across the country. This National Park and Recreation Month, we’ll keep working to protect our parks and ensure they are accessible and enjoyable for all.
Republicans in Congress and President Trump passed the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill,” and it’s about time we tell the truth about what’s REALLY in the text of the legislation.
I’m proud to secure nearly $2.4 million for GRR to improve airport safety, extend the life of essential taxiway infrastructure, and help GRR keep pace with growing demand.

Our children are our future, and we must do everything we can to invest in their success.
With the threat of crucial federal funding being stripped away, it was great to sit down with leaders from the Muskegon Boys and Girls Club to discuss how I could support their operations.
West Michigan is lucky to have the Comprehensive Therapy Center in our community so that our neighbors with disabilities can have the support they need to thrive.
I loved sitting down for coffee with caregivers of individuals with disabilities to hear their stories and answer their questions.
Devastating. Trump's economy isn't made for you and me, and it's not made for our family businesses.

The BEACON Act is a necessary step to ensure that no Administration is above the law or immune from scrutiny, and I’m proud to lead this bill alongside colleagues from the House and Senate.

I’m a fierce fighter for legislation that supports our families, which is why I’m proud to cosponsor the Credit for Caring Act to provide a tax credit for working family caregivers.
Perhaps to combat our decreasing birth rate, we should be investing in reproductive care, making child care more affordable, and expanding programs like the Child Tax Credit.
As a member of @transportdems.bsky.social, we demand answers. The American people deserve to know why Sec. Kristi Noem delayed critical resources, including vital aerial surveillance that could have found victims sooner.
We must hold an immediate hearing and deliver answers for these families.
If you or anyone you know needs assistance with a federal agency, please call my office at 616-451-8383.
Ms. Brown was originally issued the incorrect medal, and when Team Scholten learned of this error, we acted swiftly to ensure she received the correct medal for her grandfather’s honorable service to our country.
His legacy lives on through his loving family and in our West Michigan community.
We are the home of the free because of the brave.
