A mustvread!

"I want every single person to know that their voice, their expressions, their fears, their hopes will be heard. We are working really hard for you, not only as an elected official, but as a steward of this government. Please continue to reach out.” www.cbsnews.com/amp/detroit/...

I’m sure it’ll work out great this time!

"Nina taught me that art is always about searching—for what you want from the world and what you need from yourself."

The CFPB has provided billions of dollars in relief for women and families in a financial system designed for wealthy men to succeed. DWC Chair @fernandez.house.gov joined House Democrats to defend consumers and call attention to CFPB’s protection of families.

During Women’s History Month, we celebrate the women who have built, strengthened, and inspired our country. Both known and unknown, their legacies have shaped the world for the better. We honor this history by continuing to fight for women today and every day.

Just wrapped up a town hall in Oakland County today, the fear and anger with the cowardice of the House GOP is palpable. Why are they giving up their power to an unelected billionaire? We will fight back and we won’t stand down.

"In the 80s, the American public had a much more rudimentary understanding of colonialism’s dependence on racism than it does today. But even kids in high school knew that apartheid was wrong, and famine was wrong."

Billionaires’ kids always get a leg up, but every Michigan kid deserves a fair chance too. That’s why I wrote & introduced with Rep. Jimmy Gomez, the Pell to Grad Act this week to let students from lower income families use the funds for a graduate degree. Read the full bill ⤵️

📢Did you know GOP leaders are shopping around proposals that would make it harder for married women to vote? I’m not joking, but I wish I was. The proposal would change our laws to require the name you vote with to match your birth certificate. Is this 1825 or 2025? www.mlive.com/politics/202...

House Republicans passed a budget resolution that sends a clear message: they stand with billionaires. Their budget will harm their constituents, women, moms, grandmothers, and children. Chair @fernandez.house.gov full statement: democraticwomenscaucus.house.gov/media/press-...

In the Science Committee today, we had a hearing about returning to the moon, but that's going to be hard to do when the House Republicans cut healthcare & education for the American kids who might be tomorrow’s astronauts. How does that make us more competitive? Short answer - it doesn't.

Great to meet with some of MI11's greatest - veterans & members of the Michigan American Legion! We discussed protecting vets' benefits, increasing access to mental healthcare & fully funding the PACT Act. I'm grateful for their partnership in supporting vets & their families!

On what would have been his 85th birthday, join me in remembering civil rights hero, John Lewis. He made good trouble, dedicating his life to making America more just and equitable.

@aja-wilson.bsky.social Congratulations!!!! So deserving. And she is an inspiration for countless girls across tbe country! time.com/7216381/aja-...

In honor of engineering day, I visited Detroit Axle in Ferndale today as part of my #ManufacturingMonday program. Started by current CEO Mike Musheinesh’s father, an immigrant, the auto parts supplier and remanufacturer has been in the family for two generations!

People can’t find eggs. Why? Because no one in the White House cares how much your eggs cost or that there is a scarcity.

The MI Firefighters Association and West Bloomfield Fire Chief Flynn stopped by my office in Washington last week.

I mean it’s just the agency tasked with nuclear security, how bad can it be?

And so it begins. Sexual Assault and Prevention Training in military is paused. FFS. It is a major problem without this. Wonder why Biden didn’t publish the equal rights amendment, knowing it would stop this and so much more? www.businessinsider.com/military-sex...

no funding if it seems like the research MIGHT involve a woman or a nonwhite person

Powerful words from Alicia Keyes! “DEI is not a threat. It's a gift. The more voices, the more powerful the sound. When destructive forces try to burn us down, we rise from the ashes like a phoenix." www.goodmorningamerica.com/culture/live...

28 Miles For The 28th Amendment! Join us in this month-long campaign, starting tomorrow, February 1st, to support the fight for the Equal Rights Amendment and gender equity and equality.

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...

He's not blaming DEI, he's blaming women and non white people.

@emilyslist.bsky.social invests in winners. They have an incredible track record for electing women who lead in Michigan and nationwide, and their partnership is invaluable and critical. I’m proud to have them with us as we work to build a broad coalition of support for our campaign. Let’s go!

If you made this argument back in the day you were smugly dismissed as an economically illiterate lefty. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Brilliant.

I want to thank the little voice in my head that stopped me from captioning this 'don't shoot the messenger'... www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

I don’t care if you’re a Democrat, Republican, or Independent, we can and must all work together to build a better Michigan for us all. Choosing our next governor isn’t about politics — it’s about the values we share and the future we want for ourselves, our families, and our communities.

Add gender equality to the constitution and make sure we’re all equal under the law. Clinch that positive legacy! Text President Biden to demand equal rights now! 302-404-0880 www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-roo...

physics of climate impacts 101: - Stuff gets hot (worse heatwaves) - Hot air holds more water vapor (heavier rainfall) - Hot air is thirstier air (higher drought risk) - Warm water is hurricane food (stronger storms) - Hot water expands and hot ice melts (sea level rise)
