Michigan should be safe for everyone. Contact your state legislators to urge their support for the bipartisan bills requiring FREE, immediate service of Personal Protection Orders. No survivor should wait—or pay—for their personal safety. #Mileg

Today I am calling on the US Department of Justice to end their targeting and demonization of peaceful naturalized citizens. Naturalized citizens are NOT second-class citizens, and I will not stand idly by while the Trump administration tries to take away their rights. #mileg #resist

Thanks to DC Republicans, we’re now in the longest government shutdown in US history. To make matters worse, it’s open enrollment for health care and many are seeing their premiums skyrocket. Are #MiLeg Republicans focused on ending the pain? Of course not. 🧵

I'm working with #MiLeg colleagues & the Governor's office to see what we even CAN do - we're already down $1 *Billion* this fiscal year that started this month, due to the federal #BigBullshitBill, and #Michigan #HouseRepublicans already voted once this year on a budget proposal to put *ZERO*...1/2

Republicans in Washington are taking advantage of the government shutdown - which they started - to take food off the tables of 1.3 MILLION Michiganders. #mileg

The Trump regime's decision to halt SNAP benefits will mean thousands of children and seniors across Michigan going hungry. I am outraged for them. And what makes this situation all the more outrageous is that it was completely preventable. (1/3) #mileg

Michigan's budget does make some progress, but there are still some major gaps, including early childhood funding.

Cuts to Michigan's Great Start system are especially alarming.

House Democrats fought for and delivered major investments in education and public transit, while keeping House Republicans from defunding free school meals, universities, sexual assault kit testing, and more. (2/2) #mileg

House Dems didn’t stop fighting for kids & schools until we protected what you care most about!

✅ School meals.
✅ Rural busing.
✅ Mental health & school safety.
✅ Special education & literacy.
✅ Teacher bonuses.

Around 2am, we passed a 1-week spending bill & the Governor should sign it shortly, keeping #Michigan open to serve you until Oct 8, by which time we should have a full FY26 budget. The flags are still raised over the Senate and House while we're at recess for a few hours #MiLeg

#Michigan #Republicans still holding up our budget and forcing a #GOPShutdown #MiLeg

Tonight we took action to ensure Michigan keeps running for the people of our state. There’s a lot more work to be done, but House Dems won’t quit showing up for you, for families, for kids, for workers, for Michiganders. #MILeg

#Michigan #Republicans are planning to shut down the state government - and have been since the term started. They're not even trying to prevent it! #MiLeg #Shutdown #GovernmentShutdown #HouseRepublicans

#Republicans want to come in like a #WreckingBall to our healthcare - only 8️⃣ days until they shut our state (and federal??) government down, harming healthcare workers and patients #MiLeg #Michigan #Medicaid #Healthcare

There’s been a lot of action in #mileg between yesterday and this morning! Here’s what you might have missed (other than an early morning Senate session and lots of whining from Senate Republicans). 🧵

Good news! The Court of Claims has issued its ruling, and the MI House must present the 9 bills from last term to the Governor. These bills will help Michigan's corrections officers, teachers, vulnerable individuals receiving the EITC, and important Detroit cultural institutions. Onward! #mileg

Source of income passed! This is a big step forward in reducing housing discrimination.

✅ Source of Income Bills Passed in the MI House

This legislation will effectively tear down unjust housing barriers for families with low incomes, resulting in brighter futures for our state’s kids. #mileg

Yesterday, the Senate advanced SB 81 to third reading. Senator Shink's bill authorizes MIDC to develop and implement minimum standards for juvenile indigent defense. Identical legislation has been introduced in the House by Chair Lightner. #MILeg

The number of police killings has gone UP, not down, every year over the past five years.

Community members continue to push for change.

I'll keep working to advance bipartisan police practices standardization, transparency & trust bills in Michigan. #mileg
