U.S. Senator proudly representing the State of Michigan. 🏍️
Thinking of the families and loved ones of Arielle, Brian, and Alexandria, and the entire Michigan State community that was impacted by the horrific shooting three years ago. We must honor their legacy and all victims of gun violence by continuing to fight to make change. #spartanstrong

This Valentine's Day, I'm sharing the story of my parents, who met in France during WWII and fell in love. Their courage, toughness, and bravery have stuck with me throughout my career and inspires me to meet the challenges of today.

Peters to ICE/CBP officials: "How can you expect any US citizen to follow orders from an unidentified, masked man surrounding them, given we know there are these impersonators out there who according to the FBI are committing a lot of crime?"

ELLISON: We're hoping we can gain cooperation perhaps in the Pretti matter, but we've been advised that the feds aren't investigating the Good matter and we haven't received any access to the evidence

On National White Shirt Day, we honor the legacy of the historic Flint Sit-Down Strike. When UAW autoworkers banded together in Flint during the winter of 1936, they took a stand that would shape the modern labor movement in America.

As a former officer in the Navy Reserve, I had the honor to serve alongside some of the most dedicated men and women I’ve ever met. It was great to meet some of those currently serving aboard the USS Michigan, one of the many vessels critical to our national security.

This statement from the President is completely backwards. Michigan’s economy is highly integrated with Canada and the Detroit-Windsor corridor is one of the busiest border crossings for trade in our entire country.
The Republican president issued a statement Monday about the $5.7 billion bridge project spanning the Detroit River on his Truth Social platform.

I voted no on the funding bill today because we need serious reforms to require DHS immigration enforcement operations to be conducted safely and responsibly. I urge our Republican colleagues to let us vote to fund the rest of the government and work with us to rein in DHS.

The American people have seen DHS officers’ unjustified actions and excessive force with their own eyes. I’m pushing for commonsense reforms to improve safety and hold DHS accountable.
