Today, we’re celebrating the $850k I secured to help @WMHCC establish their new headquarters. This is HUGE for the local economy! The new facility will give Latino entrepreneurs a space to start & grow businesses & is estimated to DOUBLE the area's GDP over the next 20 years.

More than 1 in 5 American adults struggle with mental illness. I joined my colleagues on the House steps in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month as we committed to investing in mental health resources to ensure everyone can access the care they need.

I took advantage of travel disruptions today to host an impromptu @TransportDems aviation codel (unofficial) to @FlyGRFord . You know I’m going to take any opportunity I can to brag on our airport.

My bipartisan Dignity Act would not only work to fix our broken immigration system – it would also spur economic growth AND address Social Security solvency issues. Read about it from @BrookingsInst below! ⤵️

Police Modular Vehicle Barrier Systems help law enforcement keep the public safe during events. I proudly secured $380k for the @cityofmuskegon to access these barriers and ensure our neighbors stay safe during the 100+ community events they host each year.

#OTD 64 years ago, @US_FDA approved the first birth control pill. This important decision made it easier for women to plan when and how to start a family. As attacks on reproductive freedom continue nationwide, I'll keep fighting to protect these essential rights.

Small businesses are essential to medical innovation, but lengthy and expensive @US_FDA clinical trials can often present insurmountable hurdles. Today in @HSBCDems , we discussed how we can help small businesses get the resources they need to compete in the marketplace.

I will vote to table Marjorie Taylor Greene's motion to vacate the office of the Speaker of the House. This is not a vote FOR Speaker Johnson. This is a vote to put an end to the chaos caused by @HouseGOP . West Michigan sent me here to get things done. Let's get back to work.

West Michigan is growing, and @MichREALTORS are working hard to meet the housing demand. I met with Michigan realtors while they were in D.C. to learn more about how they’re working to increase access to housing and homeownership!

Investments in West Michigan airports are investments in our community– and @FlyGRFord is showing us that firsthand. This economic growth creates jobs and ignites innovation. I'll keep working to bring home federal dollars to continue this momentum!

Every 13 minutes, a woman dies of breast cancer. We’re working hard to change that. West Michigan’s own Tammy and Jori and members from @NBCCStopBC joined me in D.C. to discuss how I can continue to support their work to advance breast cancer research, policy, and education.
