Honored to be a part of the Muskegon Pride Parade this morning! I had so much fun celebrating and visiting with you all at such a joyful event.

Started the day bright and early in Muskegon at the 2026 Muskegon County Leadership Summit. It was great to join business, municipal, and nonprofit leaders from across the region to discuss the issues shaping our future, including public transportation, the arts, and economic growth.

There was a great turn out at the Oceana County Democratic Party Spring Fundraiser. We heard from Attorney General, Dana Nessel and enjoyed visiting with others in this district who are passionate about working for a better future for Michiganders.

I am honored to receive the endorsement of the Michigan League of Conservation Voters. Protecting our air, water, and natural resources is not only an environmental issue, it is an investment in the health, quality of life, and economic future of our communities.

Happy Pride Month! We stand together in our commitment to dignity, equality, and belonging — for every person, in every corner of our community. Let's make this a Pride Month to remember!

This month, and every month, we celebrate our progress in advancing LGBTQ+ rights and remain committed to fighting for equality and equity. Happy Pride, Michigan!

I grew up in a log cabin that my dad built on our 100-acre family farm. The farm taught me responsibility, self-reliance, and the importance of neighbors helping neighbors. This is why I understand the challenges rural families face today, and I'll bring those values with me to the State Senate.

My family enjoyed a fun afternoon at Pride in the Park hosted by Pride in the ‘Stee! This is always a fun community event to kick off Pride Month with love and acceptance. Grateful for this welcoming community!

This morning Manistee welcomed candidate for U.S. Senate Mallory McMorrow. Seeing leaders in Michigan who are willing to sit down, listen, and have important conversations is critical. Thank you to all who joined in on those conversations today.

Thank you to Tony Moulatsiotis, Muskegon County Treasurer for your endorsement. You’re right that I’m committed to working for District 32 as someone who lives with the real issues that Michiganders face. I’m grateful for your support!

Thank you to Jill Sperling for hosting a house party this weekend. Your home created a beautiful setting to gather and have important conversations. Thank you for opening your home!

Today we pause to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to freedom will never be forgotten. Let us remember the families who carry their legacy and the empty seats that remind us of their ultimate sacrifice.

New logo, same determination. Let’s fight for what Michigan families deserve. #voteamidon

I’m not here to cluck around. I’m here to fight for Michigan families. #voteamidon

I’m grateful to be endorsed by the Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan. I’m committed to ensuring all Michiganders have access to the quality sexual and reproductive healthcare they deserve. Thank you for your support, and I look forward to working together.

Thank you to the Muskegon County Democratic Party for your endorsement. I’m grateful to have your support as we work together for District 32, and I know that we can accomplish our goal of flipping this seat. #voteamidon

We’ve been out door knocking this week having great conversations with people across the district. Every door reminds me why this campaign matters and how much people want leaders who will listen and fight for their communities.

Last Saturday evening, I had the pleasure of attending the 2026 gala at the Ramsdell Regional Center for the Arts. The arts shape our communities in ways that go far beyond the stage, and investing in them means investing in creativity, connection, and opportunity for future generations.

This weekend I had the opportunity to attend the Fight Like Hell PAC training and connect with organizers, candidates, and leaders from across Michigan who are ready to keep fighting for our communities. Ready to keep fighting like hell for the 32nd District.

I’m not nice, and I’m not quiet. I’m here to fight for the people of the 32nd district and what’s important to them, not just smile and wave. Check out the full episode of my interview on Breaking The Meta Podcast here: m.youtube.com/watch?v=DuEj...

I’m proud to be endorsed by the Young Democrats of Michigan. Young people are the present, shaping the direction of our communities and demanding better from those in power right now. I’m grateful for their trust and energized by the organizing, passion, and clarity they bring to this movement.

I’m honored to be endorsed by Karen Buie, Muskegon County Clerk. Karen has dedicated her career to serving the people of Muskegon County with integrity, transparency, and compassion. She understands the importance of strengthening our community and making government work for everyday people.

This week, Manistee had the chance to welcome candidate for U.S. Senate Abdul El-Sayed, and it was fantastic to see so many people come out in support! There’s real energy building across Michigan around leaders who are willing to listen, show up in our communities, and fight for a better future.

Last week, I attended the Senior Expo at the Manistee County Council on Aging, and I got to bring my little assistant with me! It was a reminder of why we need leaders in Lansing who are thinking about the future while honoring the people who built our communities.

Join me tonight at The Q Smokehouse for a meet & greet! I’m looking forward to connecting with you about what’s important to you. I hope to see you there!

This Teacher Appreciation Week, I’m reflecting on the privilege of being able to work with students in the classroom at West Shore Community College. To all of the teachers, professors, support staff, and mentors - thank you. Your dedication matters, and our future is stronger because of it.

Honored to attend and speak at the Michigan Teamsters Spring Delegates Meeting this week. The Teamsters have always been at the heart of the fight for fair wages, safe working conditions, and dignity on the job. These are the conversations that matter for building strong communities.

I’m incredibly honored to receive the endorsement of the Rural Caucus of the Michigan Democratic Party. As someone who lives in rural Michigan, this endorsement means a great deal to me. Rural communities deserve leaders who understand both the challenges and the strengths of rural communities.

Thank you to Jane Thompson and Lissa Schneider for hosting a great house party! I always value time spent sharing stories and hearing what’s important to you and the 32nd district.

Today is International Roller Derby Day, and I can’t help but think about how much playing for the Lake CIty Roller Dolls shaped who I am today. Roller derby taught me grit, resilience, and how to get back up every time you’re knocked down. That’s exactly what it takes to be your next State Senator.

May 4-8 is Teacher Appreciation Week. This year’s theme is Teachers Create Magic. Every day, teachers transform ordinary moments into extraordinary discoveries. Teaching is not a job—it’s a calling. Who is/was your favorite teacher? Give them a call or write a note. You will make their day!

Honored to spend Friday night with the Muskegon County Democratic Party at their Blue Jubilee Gala! I had the privilege of serving as keynote speaker, and it was an evening full of energy, connection, and shared commitment to our community.

Such a great turnout today at The Coffee Factory for a meet & greet hosted by Brenda Kordecki! ☕️ Grateful for the conversations, the community, and everyone who stopped by to connect. Events like this are what community is all about. Thank you Brenda!

I’m grateful to earn the endorsement of the Teamsters. I believe that unions are the backbone of our communities setting the standard for wages, safety, and opportunity. I’m committed to standing with working people to ensure Michigan continues to invest in skilled trades and good-paying jobs.

Every Wednesday morning starts the same way! I volunteer in my son Ace’s classroom as their daily reader, which means I get the best job: sitting with each student while they read me a book. Now it’s time to switch gears and head to Grand Rapids to meet with the Chamber of Commerce.

A little over one year ago, we took these photos and officially hit the campaign trail. For the past year, we have had countless meaningful conversations, made about a million phone calls, and built a campaign rooted in listening and showing up. #voteamidon

We had a great Saturday morning at the Black Women's Caucus of Muskegon County Scholarship Breakfast. It was great to celebrate the scholarship winner and enjoy great company!

This endorsement from the Manistee County Democrats is near and dear to my heart! I’m thankful for the support the Manistee Dems have shown me over the years. I had the privilege of serving as their Vice Chair from 2021-2024, and they have been nothing but supportive on this campaign journey.

I’m incredibly honored to have the support of EMILY’s List. For decades, EMILY’s List has been a driving force in electing pro-choice Democratic women who are ready to lead and deliver. They invest in candidates who take on tough fights and win. Let’s flip this seat and make a real difference.

I’m grateful to the Mason County MI Democratic Party for your endorsement. It’s true that when we listen, ask questions, and show up, the real work happens. Thank you for your endorsement and I look forward to walking this journey with you. #voteamidon

Happy Earth Day! This year’s Earth Day theme is Our Power, Our Planet. For the 32nd district, we can adapt the theme to Our Power, Our Communities. We have the most beautiful district in the state, in my opinion. Let’s balance growth with environmental responsibility to keep our district thriving.

It’s National Library Week and in District 32 we have two historic libraries: Manistee County Library and Hackley Public Library in Muskegon. If you haven’t checked out your local library, this is an ideal week to do so. And thank a librarian for all they do!

Looking forward to The Blue Jubilee event hosted by the Muskegon County Democratic Party on May 1st! It's going to be a great event, I hope to see you there.

This weekend is the MI Democratic Party Endorsement Convention. Party leaders are emphasizing unity, and that it will take collaboration between different factions within the party, to win in the November election. Tomorrow, party delegates will vote to endorse statewide candidates.

I am honored to have the endorsement of MI List for my campaign for the Michigan State Senate. @milistpac.bsky.social #MILIST #michiganstatesenate #voteamidon

Did you know we have a super hero treasurer on our team? Meet Peggy! Definitely take the time to read this impressive bio - she serves in a number of treasurer roles all over Michigan. Peggy, we're grateful for your knowledge, willingness to serve, and passion for this work!

Last week, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service released 35,000 Lake Trout into the waters, in Manistee, as part of ongoing restoration efforts. This initiative aims to boost the native fish population, enhance biodiversity, and improve the overall health of the Great Lakes ecosystem.
