It’s a great place with a Holi celebration at the Village Arts Factory in Cherry Hill Village. I love living in Canton.

“They were careless people… they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

I’m proud to be one of the 49 elected officials who have called on Secretary Kristi Noem to release #MahmoudKhalil from the unconstitutional detention, violating the first amendment.

I can think of nothing more poetic than Senator Cory Booker breaking the record for longest Senate speech of segregationist Strom Thurmond, filibustering to prevent the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

This land is our land.

Just found out the City of Harrisville in Alcona County has partisan city elections.

Research showed that only 3 cities in Michigan did. This makes 4!

I celebrated Fred Korematsu Day of Civil Liberties and the Constitution by reading Frank Murphy’s dissenting opinion which is one of the most beautiful pieces of legal writing of all time.

Happy Birthday Michigan. Michigan became the 26th state in the United States on January 26, 1837.

Did you know that the office of Canton Township Clerk is older than the State. It was authorized by the Territorial Laws and we elected our first clerk (Thomas Hooker) in 1834.

What an honor to serve as master of ceremony for Democratic House Leader Ranjeev Puri’s swearing in today.

I am proud to know him as a colleague and even prouder as a friend. He is a great man, husband and father. A truly inspirational leader and he will do amazing things for the State of Michigan.

So excited to read about the cost of election administration
