Working families are struggling to make ends meet. They want stability and predictability, and they’re concerned by the chaos of the last month. Tonight’s joint address did not help. 🧵[1/2]

Michigan's Sen. Elissa Slotkin got it right. From economic security to national security, Democrats are ready to lower costs, ensure a world class education for all our kids, and to make America strong. We’ll stand up to any action that threatens those goals. 🧵[2/2]

Happy International Women’s Day! Today I was fortunate to be able to join hundreds of supporters in rallies in Flint and Midland, where we recommitted to fighting for bold policies, reproductive freedoms, and our communities. Because women’s rights are human rights.

There's nothing more Bay City than St. Patrick's Day. Yesterday, I was so excited to join over 25 volunteers and supporters in celebrating the 70th Bay City St. Patrick’s Day Parade!

“This office provides vital services to some of our vulnerable seniors. So I sent a letter last week demanding that they provide more information and asking that they not close this Social Security office and others who serve our seniors.” -Kristen McDonald Rivet michiganadvance.com/2025/03/19/in-…

Thanks Karen Tumulty for coming to #MI08 last week to talk about our win last November and our laser focus on the real things that matter to our Mid-Michigan families.

This is what democracy looks like. We know right from wrong. When we stand together and for our values, we’ll move this country forward.

In the face of Trump’s reckless tariffs, House Democrats want to take on price-gougers to drive down grocery costs and continue to lower the cost of prescription drugs. Yet Trump and Republicans won’t stop driving prices up. On today’s Democratic Daily Download, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz

My husband and I raised 6 kids, and I taught catechism. I spent Fridays delivering meals on wheels. I won’t sit quietly while extremists in Congress invoke the name of Jesus Christ to take food away from hungry kids.

Donald Trump won her district by 2 points last year. This House Democratic freshman won that same district by 7 points. Watch this and you will see how Congresswoman Kristen McDonald Rivet connects. Link below to a column I wrote about her.

Dozens of peaceful protesters were burned in an act of antisemitic hate. The NRCC’s first reaction is to blame a freshmen member of Congress. This rhetoric is shameful, baseless, and offensive, and it does nothing to turn down the temperature in our country. We deserve better.
