Let’s see your red, West Michigan, it’s #WearRedDay for heart health!
Cardiovascular disease is the #1 killer of American women, so let’s continue funding research so we can one day conquer this awful disease.

If President Trump, Elon Musk, and their loyalists at DOGE are working in the American people's best interest, my bill shouldn't scare them. Let's pass the CLEAR Act so agencies like DOGE are subject to FOIA requests. The American public deserves to know where their taxpayer dollars are being spent.
On his first day in office, Trump shut down the White House office that worked on gender equity. Every day since, there have been more attacks on women's and families’ data, funding, and access to information & care. Trump’s attacks on women are undeniable. My DWC colleagues and I are fighting back.
Kuyper College is a leader among our nation’s work colleges, and I’m determined to support their efforts to prepare our neighbors for the workforce. I had a productive conversation with Kuyper College President Harris about continuing our efforts to bolster the economy with our best and brightest.
Please join me at my next telephone town hall on February 19 at 5:30 pm. I want to hear from you and I want to share even more about the ways I’m working for you in Washington.
West Michigan—what a year this month has been! Thank you for all your calls, emails and all of you regular readers of my newsletter.
Let’s get together and talk about this moment we’re facing as a community and a country.
Always a pleasure to meet with Michigan Dept. of Transportation officials, who are committed partners in improving our roads, increasing driver safety, and keeping our communities connected across MI-03 and beyond.
No matter if an agency exists for one month or one hundred years, it shouldn’t be exempt from FOIA requests.
Rep. Connolly, Rep. Min, and Rep. Mfume have joined me as co-leads on this legislation. Democrat or Republican, we must ensure we’re holding our government accountable to American taxpayers.
Knowledge is power, and in America, that power belongs to the people. Let’s CLEAR things up:
Today, I’m introducing the CLEAR Act — Consistent Legal Expectations and Access to Records — to ensure that Americans know how every government agency is spending their tax dollars.
I went on the record at this week’s Small Business Committee hearing to hold Republicans accountable for destabilizing families and harming kids – which directly impacts our Small Businesses. Watch more here. youtu.be/SRgYZ-lQMM8
To have a strong workforce, our working parents need reliable childcare. President Trump’s recent funding freeze put the future of childcare facilities nationwide – including Head Start facilities in MI-03 – in limbo. 🧵
MI-03 is proud to be home to a robust agricultural community, and I’m working hard to protect our farmers from harmful policies while supporting their growth. Great to meet with members of the Michigan Agri-Business Association to ensure our partners in ag have what they need to succeed.
I spoke with @acluofmichigan.bsky.social Executive Director Loren Khogali today about continued efforts to ensure West Michiganders’ rights are being protected – crucial work in our current chaotic political landscape.
Thank you to everyone at the ACLU for the work you do to defend civil liberties.
I’m committed to fighting for an equal playing field for them to thrive!
May they continue to make HERstory. #ngwsd2025 🏅
Since I was young, participating in sports at all levels has shaped my life—giving me strength & confidence.
This Girls and Women in Sports Day, we celebrate the trailblazing athletes of the past, present, and future.
Since FMLA passed on this day in 1993, we have yet to secure paid family and medical leave for all workers. Last Congress I was a proud cosponsor of the FAMILY Act, and I'll keep fighting so working Americans can care for themselves and their families with the support they deserve.
No one is left untouched by cancer. As the home to Medical Mile, West Michiganders are working to improve cancer outcomes and research the tools to help cure this disease every day. #WorldCancerDay
I joined Small Business Committee colleagues urging
@sbagov.bsky.social to clarify the situation and provide answers to the American people. If there’s nothing to hide, these answers should be easy. We must protect American entrepreneurs. The first step is transparency.
I'm gravely concerned over an unelected, big businessman and his "department" accessing highly sensitive data, including that of small business owners who may have economic interests at odds with his own. 🧵
