From FOX 17: "Protesters say they believe their voices were heard, at least by Scholten’s office." They're correct. West Michigan, I hear you. Keep calling, emailing, and letting us know what's on your mind. I'm listening and responding with action. www.fox17online.com/news/local-n...
Community colleges like GRCC are bolstering our workforce and educating the leaders of tomorrow. Great to meet with GRCC President Lepper today to discuss how I can keep supporting our local colleges in these uncertain times.
Touching base again here, West Michigan. It’s another day of work in Washington pushing back on Trump’s efforts to unilaterally cut funding — this time to something as nonpartisan as fresh water. I’m staying informed, proactive, and relentless in this fight for you. We’re in this together.
Less than a week after introducing my CLEAR Act to ensure all government agencies are subject to full transparency, Trump and Musk have taken steps to completely shield their work at DOGE from the American public. I won’t stand for it. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/10/u...
I’m back in D.C. ready to work for you, West Michigan. There’s a reason why all the deeply unpopular changes Trump and Musk are enacting aren’t being brought through Congress. @housedemocrats.bsky.social are pushing back in order to hold all branches of government accountable.
Spring Break is just around the corner, and Congress will be in session! What better way to spend your break than here with Team Scholten in D.C.?🌸Call our office at 202-225-3831 for help arranging a tour and to let us know if you’ll be in town for a Team Scholten Reception—we hope to see you there!
Our community health centers are vital to providing care to our neighbors in West Michigan. I was proud to receive the Distinguished Community Health Center Advocate from NACHC and talk with community health providers about the support they need to continue providing top-of-the-line care.
Grateful to have a senator who shows up with action! Sen. Slotkin and I sat down to listen to leaders from Cherry Health Center — a facility on the frontlines of providing accessible health care to our neighbors.
While I was in Washington for votes this week, Team Scholten joined Samaritas’s ribbon-cutting for their new 53-unit affordable housing complex in Spring Lake. Affordable housing fortifies communities and I’m proud to support efforts like this one to help combat the housing crisis in West Michigan.
Elon Musk and the Administration’s actions are a direct threat to the privacy and security of Americans’ most sensitive personal information. That’s why I’m proud to champion the Taxpayer Data Protection Act. 🧵
Such a joy to see so many capable women celebrate their graduation from the Women in Skilled Trades Program this weekend! I’m a fierce advocate for expanding non-traditional, skilled-based programs such as WIST, and I’m so inspired to see Michigan women leading the charge into our trade workforce.
Great to speak at this morning’s Eastown Community Association’s Annual Meeting alongside members of the Eastown community! I’m determined to make our communities more inclusive, accessible, and functional for all neighbors, and it’s great to have ECA as a partner in this effort.
I'm glad a judge has stepped in to block Musk and DOGE from illegally accessing your private data. But this is only temporary. That's why Congress needs to pass my CLEAR Act and Taxpayer Data Protection Act to prevent corruption and keep your data away from unelected billionaires.
DEADLINE EXTENDED: We’re extending our deadline for Valentine for Veteran submissions to WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12th to ensure there’s enough time to get all of the thoughtful valentines in. More below on specifics!
