To all my Facebook friends in East Lansing, or anyone who has friends there, please vote for my friend Adam. We worked together in a Michigan Senate office for four years, and I can confidently say he was the best constituent caseworker I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with.

I will be in downtown Howell, helping erase the myth of my adopted home as a sundown town.

Mi. House Republicans have not presented a budget well past the required July 1 deadline, so they drop a stupid resolution m to not pay the Governor if the deadline is missed.
They have no shame.

I wasn't sure If I was going to sign the petition to enact rank choice voting, but since Mi. Republicans are pushing a bill to ban it, I can't wait to sign it.
If they're agin it, I'm for it.

The laziest MI. House in history. 49 Senate bills passed so far with zero no votes still sit in the House. And, of course, no budget.

The only time in Michigan history the House has ever produced fewer than six public acts at this point in the calendar is when they didn’t meet at all. That’s happened 34 times since 1837.

A good guy with a shopping cart stopped the bad guy with a knife, but Michigan Republican politicians like Joe Bellino are politicizing it talking about the second guy who had a gun. The mythical "good guy with a gun."

Wow. The 6 bills signed into law this year is the fewest number since 1940, the last year in which the Michigan legislature didn't meet at all. House Republicans are too busy holding Benghazi like hearings with the like of Ted Nugent & Pat Colbeck.

Maybe stop holding press conferences and do some negotiation.
Matt Hall and House Republicans had one job: pass a final budget. Instead, Hall's leadership has caused chaos, leaving Michigan kids and schools in limbo. Failed leadership has real consequences.
Legislature misses its own deadline for state budget, leaders say K-12 budget likely weeks away
School districts have had to start a new fiscal year without knowing how much money they'll be getting from the state.

MI. Republicans are screaming that state workers must work in person, yet the MRP is moving out of their HQ in Lansing & selling it because they claim they don't need as much space anymore because of technology.

He was spouting the racist "great replacement theory," and not a single Republican said a thing.
My Republican colleague's racist remarks last week were disgusting and un-American. Rep Schriver must apologize and we must all call him out, including House Republicans. There is no place for racism in the Michigan legislature. #mileg #EndWhiteSupremacy
