Thinking back to our “Miles for Michigan” motorcycle tour this year 🏍️ I’m always thankful to everyone for coming out to meet with me on the tour to discuss the issues that matter to our great state.

The Trump Administration is trampling all over Americans’ rights and Congress’ authority. Our Constitution empowers Congress to be a check on a lawless Administration, and I’m discouraged by how little my Republican colleagues are pushing back on these abuses.

Our nation’s debt is alarming, and Trump’s tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy are only making it worse. I took to the Senate floor once again to remind my Republican colleagues of the dangers we face if we do not change course – and do it soon.

11 times Democrats have tried to open TSA, FEMA, CISA, and the Coast Guard. Republicans blocked it every time. We must fund these agencies while we negotiate commonsense reforms to ICE.

A strong workforce pipeline in the maritime trades is critical to both America’s national security and Michigan’s economy. I’m proud that my CADETS Act is helping students, like those serving at our Great Lakes Maritime Academy in Northern Michigan, afford their education and land in-demand jobs.

DHS confirmed it is ready for trade and travelers on the Gordie Howe Bridge. That is great news for Michigan! Once open, the bridge will support international commerce that grows Michigan’s economy.

Republicans’ inaction is allowing health care costs to continue to go up for millions of Americans.  And with President Trump’s Big Ugly Bill making it even harder for folks to access health care, we need a plan to bring those costs down. I stand ready to find a bipartisan path forward.

My alma mater, Rochester High School, unveiled a new Veterans “Wall of Honor” today to recognize RHS alumni and faculty who have served in our Armed Forces. It is an honor for me to be recognized alongside my father and the courageous men and women who have served in our community.

Trump’s Big, Bad Bill is already making it harder for families across our state to afford groceries, pay their energy bills, and receive health care – just to give billionaires a tax cut.

My PROSWIFT Act has helped improve our nation’s ability to predict severe space weather events that could harm us here on Earth. This Administration wants to cut funding for that program, despite it being cost-effective and essential to protecting public safety. I’ll keep fighting back.

St. Thérèse of Lisieux, “The loveliest masterpiece of the heart of God is the heart of a mother.” While widely attributed to her, this quote is often highlighted in Catholic traditions to honor all mothers, both living and deceased, as reflections of God's love.

Is truth now the front line for comedy? On this episode of Stories and Strategies, I spoke with Michael Siegers of Zulu Alpha Kilo on why humour works when it reflects something people already recognise, and why the hardest part is saying something honest without causing harm.

Yep 🤣

This is how they extract the explosive (TNT) from an anti-tank mine. It is melted down in a slow cooker and used in projectiles for dropping from a UAV or a drone such as the Mavic. It’s a whole science in itself, but one that can be learnt quickly.

🇺🇸 v 🇪🇺 food Listen to what this American says about what a US trade deal really means for our food and health. While talking about “reset” with Europe… Starmer’s government is opening the door to US 🇺🇸 standards. That’s how they’re trying to make Brexit work.
