Mental health care interventions are increasingly important, especially in #Michigan, as our state is considered a mental health desert. Our meeting with Theresa Scarpace, a clinical social worker, highlighted many insights for our members. We took a few notes to share with you! #mentalhealth

During our Jan. meeting, our members honored the life & legacy of Ronnie Waters. Ronnie was a friend, colleague, and mentor to many of our members. Throughout his life, he advocated for criminal justice reforms & worked to empower community members to become civically engaged. #criminaljusticereform

[1/4] During last week’s meeting, we were honored to host current representatives and several candidates running in upcoming Oakland County elections. It was a great opportunity to hear their visions for our community firsthand.

ICE shot and killed a woman on camera today. We all saw the video.

The Trump administration is lying.

Trump defends the ICE agent who shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis.

Video footage does not support Trump's claims.

At the Detroit Medical Center, Mike Duggan led a vicious union-busting campaign against nurses who were asking for safer working conditions.

Duggan can’t be trusted to fight for Michigan workers.

🚨 ICYMI: House Republicans have no remorse for Michiganders as they cut funding for new mothers, student safety, cancer patients, and the Holocaust Memorial Center in Farmington Hills, our own backyard. We won’t stand for it and neither should you. Demand a vote on HB 4576. #wbdems #education

RFK is a danger to the health and safety of Americans. He needs to be removed from Office ASAP. Thank you Rep.Stevens for taking this important step! #impeachment #Democrats #healthcare #wbldems
🚨 Today, I formally introduced articles of impeachment against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people. Michiganders cannot take another day of his chaos.

RxKids is a groundbreaking program driving lasting change in Michigan, tackling childhood poverty from day one. It proves what’s possible when we prioritize strong policy and invest in creative solutions that truly deliver.

For years, presidents have abused the pardon power to reward political allies.

Trump has done it again and again – and now he could even pardon a person who helped run a child sex trafficking ring with Jeffrey Epstein. That’s unacceptable.

@slotkin.senate.gov has it right. End the pardon power.

The WBL Dems were excited to join the Oakland County Democratic Party at the 64th Annual Phil Hart Dinner this past weekend. Listening to keynote speaker @crockett.house.gov and hearing from leaders all through the county was a great reminder of how to keep our movement strong.

This past Thursday, we wrapped up our meetings for this year! In addition to executive committee elections, we were fortunate to have speakers such as @jeremymoss.bsky.social and Collin Mays, both running for Michigan’s 11th congressional district.

AG @dananessel.bsky.social is right. Same-Sex Marriage is safe for now, but more can be done to protect our LGBTQIA+ Michiganders. Read what actions she thinks we need to take in this Detroit Free Press Article:

Millions of Americans made their voices heard the last few days.

In WB, we made it clear that we will support continued investment in our education system.

Around the Nation, Americans sent a clear message that Democratic leadership is needed to bring down skyrocketing costs.

Providing food assistance to residents in need is not just a moral issue, it’s also a legal one. I am grateful that the court has agreed that the USDA is obligated to spend available funding to support food assistance and prevent Americans from going hungry.

True Leadership is stepping up when your communities are in need. Thanks to the leadership of our Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Michiganders in need of Food Assistance will be able to put food on their tables. Story from @clickondetroit.com #snap #governmentshutdown

[1/2] While Republicans are busy blaming Democrats over the federal government shutdown, earlier this month we saw what real governing involves when DEMOCRATIC Governor Whitmer passed a bipartisan budget to fix our damn roads, lower costs, invest more into our students, and protect public health.
After budget fights and delays, Gov. Whitmer signs new bipartisan Michigan spending plan
Fights and delays marked this year's budget process in Michigan, but state lawmakers ultimately came together to pass a bipartisan spending plan.

The Trump Administration should use all available funds to ensure SNAP benefits are not paused and be upfront about how they plan to move forward so Americans continue receiving the support they need during this time of uncertainty.

Good morning 👋👋 According to 2021 Republicans, the party that controls the House, Senate and Presidency is ultimately responsible for any government shutdown. #republicanshutdown
