We borrow the land on which we live from future generations & have a responsibility to protect the air we breathe, water we drink, & special places we love. Thankful for President Biden’s leadership & will continue working to ensure a prosperous future for our natural resources.

Deeply saddened by the death of Congressman Donald Payne, Jr. He was my friend and an unwavering advocate for the people of New Jersey. Praying for peace for his loved ones during this difficult time. We will all miss him a lot.

The Crime Victims Fund is critical to supporting survivors of domestic & sexual violence, child abuse, stalking, & more. That’s why Ann Wagner & I introduced a bill to prevent the depletion of deposits into the CVF, enabling victim services orgs to keep helping survivors heal.

Tomorrow you can kick off National Park Week by visiting any National Park Service site for free! Here in Michigan we have Isle Royale, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, and so many other natural treasures to explore. thenewsherald.com/2024/04/18/fre…

Happy 60th birthday to the Ford Motor Company Mustang– missing my shotgun rider today and every day.

Joined Toyota to discuss the future of the automobile industry and how we can work together to achieve our goals while supporting workers, boosting our supply chain, and maintaining our rightful place as a global leader in innovation and technology.

Great to have IBEW join us for these important conversations as we continue working to support workers during the transition to a clean energy future. Workers are the backbone of America, and when they succeed, our country succeeds.
