It was an honor to share the stage with the Song Foundation and Michigan Nonprofit Association for the Detroit Philanthropy event at #MPC26. The everchanging federal landscape is causing real harm to people and communities. Nonprofits are trusted leaders and essential advocates.

The Trump Admin claimed that #SNAP benefits aren't available for Nov 2025 b/c SNAP’s “contingency funds are not legally available to cover regular benefits.” This stands in opposition to the law & prior practice, incl. by the Admin itself. @michleague.bsky.social @centeronbudget.bsky.social

Food isn't a luxury. People need #SNAP and food banks can't make up the difference. "...when you pull $15 billion a month out of a national economy and expect charity to step in and nobody miss a beat. That’s unrealistic.” - Phil Knight @michleague.bsky.social #Shutdown #ShutdownCrisis

Michigan's budget does make some progress, but there are still some major gaps, including early childhood funding. Cuts to Michigan's Great Start system are especially alarming. #MiLeg @michleague.bsky.social #MIBudget2026

It was an honor to be at today’s bill signing to celebrate the bipartisanship effort to protect #Medicaid in Michigan. @michleague.bsky.social #ProtectMiCare

We need to protect health care in Michigan, not cut it. bridgemi.com/guest-commen...

Young adults are already struggling and their healthcare premiums are about to DOUBLE. @economicsecurityproject.org

The Senate voted to add $3.3 trillion to the national deficit & decimate the social safety net all to pay for tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires. Bezos doesn’t need more money for ridiculous weddings. People need food & healthcare. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/01/u...

Poverty is a policy choice. Senate Republicans just voted to increase poverty & hunger and take away healthcare from millions of people. mlpp.org/news-releases/

The rich get richer, the poor get poorer. It's really that simple. There is nothing beautiful about the #BBB Read the lastest from @budgetlab.bsky.social budgetlab.yale.edu/research/dis...

The Big Beautiful Bill breaks Trump’s promise to protect Medicaid.

About 1 in 10 veterans use #Medicaid The big, beautiful bill does nothing to protect them.

Medicaid is esssential to the health and well-being of Michiganders. #HandsOffMedicaid @protectmicare.bsky.social

Excellent kickoff for tonight’s Medicaid vigil. #ProtectMiCare #medicaid

Yesterday the Senate Health Policy Committee held a hearing about the federal cuts to #Medicaid. #Mileg Real people will be harmed.

Great start to #MPC25

SNAP is extremely popular. Cutting it is not.

There is nothing beautiful about taking away healthcare and food. Take action now.

“I resent people calling my fellow Michiganders waste, and I resent people calling my fellow Michiganders abuse, and I resent people calling my fellow Michiganders fraud. None of those things are what’s happening. What is happening is our government is being unresponsive to the needs of its people.”

Just a reminder, 83% of Michiganders think Medicaid funding should be increased or stay the same. There is widespread support for Medicaid. The cuts will be devastating. #Medicaid

As you go to bed tonight, the House Committee has scheduled a 1 am hearing to vote on taking away healthcare from millions of Americans. If this was popular, they wouldn’t be doing it in the middle of the night.

Under the cover of night, the House is planning radical cuts to health care. People’s access to care will be terminated. The loss of coverage will make people sicker. And people will lose their lives. The time to act is now. This isn’t hyperbole.

The House plan takes away healthcare from millions and will make it harder to afford and access care.

Family friendly policies are key to keeping people in Michigan & creating economic opportunity. #ChildTaxCredit #CTC @kresge.org kresge.org/news-views/f...

Via @citizencohn.bsky.social House Energy and Commerce Committee GOP openly admits #Medicaid cuts are “longstanding Republican policies and priorities so have been talked about for years…” despite claims they are newly about curbing fraud/protecting the vulnerable. www.thebulwark.com/p/how-to-tak...

The cuts at the federal have real implications on people’s lives.

Excellent testimony from @alexandra-stamm.bsky.social We shouldn’t strip away civil rights protections from kids.

The cuts to Medicaid, SNAP and so much more will cost people their health and their lives. This isn't hyperbole. Our lawmakers need to put people, not billionaires, first. #Medicaid #SNAP

New Fact Sheet Alert🚨 by @alexandra-stamm.bsky.social

"As a nurse in Michigan, I witness the positive impact of Medicaid every single day. I’ve held the hands of patients who finally got the treatment they needed because of this program." Read more from Tricia Haener, Chief Nursing Officer McLaren Health Care ➡️ bit.ly/4kdeRU6

More on the House E & C bill. Ultimately these practices will result in people losing their health care & shifts cost to the state #Medicaid

There are serious concerns with the proposed House E&C Medicaid cuts. #medicaid @protectmicare.bsky.social 👇👇👇👇👇👇

The House is getting ready to discuss the future of our health care system. Our health and quality of life are at stake. Cuts to Medicaid will terminate access to healthcare. www.freep.com/story/opinio... @debbiedingell.house.gov @michleague.bsky.social @protectmicare.bsky.social

Medicaid is essential to our economy and health care delivery system. It’s foundational to how we access healthcare in Michigan. Excellent article from our State Budget Director. www.crainsdetroit.com/opinion/opin... @protectmicare.bsky.social @crainsdetroit.bsky.social

Medicaid is essential!

From our friends at @michimmigrant.bsky.social - HB 4233 & 4234 are up for a vote on the House floor Tuesday May 6th! These bills unfairly target immigrant communities under the pretense of national security and revive the discriminatory history of Alien Land Laws

Medicaid is essential. It's the foundation of health care in Michigan, with more than 2.6 million people. Cutting Medicaid means terminating health care for people all across Michigan. @michleague.bsky.social @protectmicare.bsky.social #Medicaid www.detroitnews.com/story/opinio...

Some good news this morning. Thank you @aclu.org

The president can already deport members of violent criminal gangs without the Alien Enemies Act. "All it does is virtually guarantee that innocent people will also be deported," @lizagoitein.bsky.social tells C-SPAN.
