We’re here because of Donald Trump and the chaos he created when he proudly overturned Roe.

I won’t stop fighting to ensure that every woman – no matter what state she lives in – has access to the critical reproductive health care she needs.

Michigan has led the way in protecting women’s reproductive freedom.

Republicans put that progress–and women’s lives across the country–at risk. Democrats will fight any attempt to take away a woman’s right to make her own reproductive health decisions. And we won’t back down.

MI is home to so many natural wonders-including our amazing Great Lakes & beautiful parks. I’ve dedicated my career to protecting them. I’m honored to have received the Centennial Leadership Award from National Parks Conservation Association, an important partner in safeguarding our national parks & public lands.

Congratulations to my amazing chief of staff Matt VanKuiken for receiving the first Leadership and Public Service Award from Western Michigan. I have been so lucky to have Matt on my team for 16 years. He has done so much incredible work for the people of Michigan! Go Matt!

In Michigan, our Great Lakes and Soo Locks are vital to our way of life. Great Lakes Maritime Task Force’s partnership has been critical in my work to protect our Lakes and build a new lock at the Soo. Thank you for recognizing me as the first Senator to receive your Lifetime Achievement Award!

Go Blue!

Today, we presented Rosie the Riveter with the Congressional Gold Medal. When our country needed them, MI women & millions of others supported the war effort in our factories. This recognition is long overdue. It was great to join so many women from Michigan in celebrating today!

Republicans stand with Big PHARMA who fight our successful efforts to lower costs. They're willing to let health care costs skyrocket, while ripping away our reproductive freedom.

Democrats have a different vision for the future–affordable health care & reproductive freedom.

I’m honored to be recognized by First Focus Campaign for Children for my decades of work on child nutrition and children’s mental health issues.

I’ll always put our children first, whether that’s making sure they have a nutritious meal on the table or access to the mental health support they need.

As Ramadan comes to an end, I wish you and your family many blessings.

Alzheimer's is a heartbreaking disease for patients, families & caregivers. I was so honored to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from Alzheimer's Association & ALZ Impact Movement. It's been wonderful to have them as partners in the fight to increase funding, raise awareness & find a cure.

Robert White was just confirmed by the Senate!

He has spent his career upholding the rule of law and keeping Michigan communities safe. I know he will be an outstanding U.S. District Judge for the Eastern District of Michigan, and I was glad to support his nomination.

This is what Trump and Republicans want to do in every state, including Michigan. Outrageous!

Jobs are up, wages are up, and unemployment is down! 
 
President Biden is creating an economy that benefits everyone — not just the wealthy and corporations.

Safe and reliable transportation is essential to our economy. This funding from Federal Transit Admn will ensure that every Michigander has access to public transit.

Thank you @AlzAssociation for the Alzheimer’s Association Lifetime Leadership Award. Grateful to have you as a partner in this work.

Regardless of how many times Republicans try to block him, President Biden is using every tool available to cancel student debt for as many borrowers as possible.

Step by step, we are helping Americans get out of crippling student loan debt.

What an amazing moment! So cool to view the eclipse today in DC with my colleagues.

Because of former President Trump, 1 in 3 women now live under extreme and dangerous abortion bans. His chaos put women’s lives across the country at risk. Women, not right-wing politicians or judges, must make our own reproductive health choices–no matter what state we live in.

Today’s the big day! This afternoon, Michiganders will be able to see the solar eclipse — the last one in this hemisphere for 20 years.
 
You don’t want to miss it. Make sure you have your glasses ready!
