Republicans’ so-called “Big, Beautiful Bill” is anything BUT big and beautiful. It’s bad accounting, bad policy, and bad for West Michigan.
I hosted a virtual discussion with Michigan Sen. McCann and Rep. Glanville to talk about the dangers of this bill and how it will affect West Michiganders.

No. Unacceptable. Rep. Fine should immediately apologize to @repilhan.bsky.social and House Leadership.
This rhetoric is inflammatory, dangerous, and puts us all in greater jeopardy as we do our jobs in Congress. We must all come together to condemn this violent language.
It's estimated that 123,000 Michiganders are going to lose food assistance due to the Republicans' Big Ugly Bill. That was just one of the reasons I voted NO.
I spoke to WZZM about my work to fight for West Michiganders and the benefits they deserve.
I’m proud to join Senator Adam Schiff, @delauro.house.gov, and @repvindman.bsky.social to lead the BEACON Act – a bill that would strengthen the oversight necessary to protect taxpayer dollars, prevent abuse of power, and promote trust in our public institutions.
The American people deserve transparency and accountability from every corner of our government, no matter who sits in the Oval Office.
I’m partnering with leaders there to ensure I’m supporting their needs however I can at the federal level.
Great to tour the new home of David’s House Ministries, where our adult neighbors with disabilities can live full lives with the support they deserve.
Recent Republican-led slashes to Medicaid will devastate David’s House and the livelihood of many residents who rely on this program for their care.
I’m urging OMB to approve NOAA's plan so GLOS can continue its work to ensure public health, keep supply chains running, and maintain the Great Lakes ecosystem.
The Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS) is integral to supporting Great Lakes communities to safeguard residents and local economies, but administrative delays at OMB are putting GLOS funding at risk.
I'm praying for the families of the victims of the flash flooding in Texas over the weekend.
As they brace for more intense rain this week, my thoughts are also with the first responders and search and rescue crews working tirelessly to save lives.

I’m a fierce advocate for our agricultural community, including West Michigan dairy producers. I enjoyed touring Fairlife’s Coopersville plant to learn more about their day-to-day operations and impact on our local community.
I’m supportive of an all-of-the-above energy approach. Innovating in the energy space will slash emissions, create jobs, save consumers money, and ensure America’s dominance on the global stage. Great to tour Walker View Mobil to learn more about their energy innovation.
Great to meet with West Michigan franchisees of Buffalo Wild Wings in Grand Rapids this week and shake up some wings alongside their hardworking employees!
Our franchise owners are crucial members of our local economy and continue delivering for West Michiganders.
At a time when President Trump and the Republican Party are cutting back the services and funding that support our veterans, now more than ever, we must recommit ourselves to supporting those who gave so much for our freedom.
Thanks to our partners in Ottawa County for helping to break ground on the new — and first — Veterans Services Facility in the county.
I remain steadfast in my belief that America’s brightest days are still ahead of us, so long as we keep working toward a more perfect union.
This Independence Day, we reflect on the origin of this holiday: a declaration that Americans will not be dominated by tyrants or ruled by kings. This declaration remains at the heart of our democracy, and at the heart of the work I do every day in Congress.
My statement on the passage of Republicans’ Big, Ugly Bill:
West Michigan, we know this Big, Ugly Bill is bad for the American people. Rep. Jeffries is on the House floor sharing stories of the everyday Americans who will be impacted, and we want to hear from you.
Share your story here: democraticleader.house.gov/shareyourstory.
Proud to sit beside @demwomencaucus.bsky.social leaders in support of our Leader, Rep. Jeffries, as he continues his marathon speech.
We'll never stop fighting for the America that women and families deserve.
