Great day on the Lakeshore at the annual Ottawa Dems Picnic. After talking with many passionate voters, I took my good friend, Haley Stevens, to Captain Sundae. Such a perfect day for gearing up to win BIG in 2026!

We are not a nation of kings. We are a democracy. But democracy doesn’t protect itself–we have to protect it. Thank you to Democracy Summer fellows who joined me yesterday to talk about how to get involved and stand up for our democracy.

Senate Republicans have been trying to sell off our public lands & they secretly snuck in a provision in Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" to begin selling off millions of acres in the West. Help me oppose this at every turn. Call your Senators to oppose and post a picture of your favorite public place.

Thanks to all of you who have reached out with support following the news that my name was found on a list among the MN shooter's possessions.

I'm praying for the families of former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and Sen. John Hoffman. I strongly condemn political violence in all forms. It has no place in this country and must be eliminated by the roots. www.cnn.com/us/live-news...

West Michigan, it’s National Fishing and Boating Week! Hope you have some time this weekend to hit the Lakeshore and enjoy all that our Great Lakes have to offer. 🎣

Today marks 106 years since Congress passed the Constitutional amendment allowing women to vote. But now Republicans are creating barriers for women to cast their vote. As the first woman to represent West Michigan in Congress, I am committed to advocating for women across our district and country.

Happy Pride Month, West Michigan! I’m proud to stand with the LGBTQ+ community in the fight for equality, dignity, and the freedom to live and love today and everyday.

Wishing everyone a reflective Memorial Day as we remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their courage and dedication will never be forgotten.

Republicans' hypocrisy couldn't be more clear: their budget plan rips away health care for millions of Americans and puts food assistance at risk – all to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy.

While you were sleeping, House Republicans voted to: ❌ Gut health care for millions of Americans ❌ Put food assistance for 40 million people at risk ❌ Push insurance plans to drop abortion care in every state There’s 529 days until the midterm elections. I’m not wasting a single one.

It seems like House Republicans are having a hard time getting the votes for this Big Bad Bill. Here's an idea on how to get more votes...

This “big beautiful bill” does not even have a price tag yet. You don’t have to be a fiscal hawk to say we should know how much it’s going to cost the American taxpayer before voting on a bill. Unbelievable. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Here's what Republicans' cuts to Medicaid would mean: 🩺 Pulling the rug out from West Michigan families who need it most 🍼 Forcing working moms to go without postpartum support 🏥 Shuttering community health centers

This #NationalPoliceWeek, I'm honoring the officers in West Michigan who help keep our communities safe and remembering those we’ve lost in the line of duty. Thank you for showing up every day to protect and serve.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers of West Michigan. Your love and leadership help shape our world, thanks for all you do!

This week, we honor the hard-working public servants in West Michigan who keep our communities safe and running. From postal workers to Social Security workers, their dedication deserves respect—not layoffs. I’ll always stand with them. #PublicServiceRecognitionWeek

Smoky wishes you all a happy national pet week! 🐾🐕 Extra grateful to our vets who keep our pets safe and healthy. @avmavets.bsky.social

During National Nurses Week, we salute the heroes in scrubs who care for our communities every day. Your compassion and resilience are the backbone of our health care system.

Officially #100DaysofChaos. Let's take a quick look at Trump's record: ☑️ Most money lost in stock market in 50 years ☑️ Signed the fewest bills into law since the 1950s ☑️ Lowest approval rating in 70 years And so much more... This record is unacceptable, and I will keep fighting back.

100 days into Trump’s 2nd term, he’s already the least popular president since the 1950s. No wonder he’s coming to Michigan tonight. It’s damage control. His reckless trade war threatens our jobs and economy the most. Michiganders see through it, and I will keep fighting back.

Hard work, ingenuity, service above self–these are West Michigan values, and they’re needed now more than ever in our leaders in Washington. That’s why I am thrilled to endorse my friend and colleague, Haley Stevens to be our next U.S. Senator. www.wzzm13.com/article/news...

Happy Easter, from my family to yours! May today bring you peace, renewal, and time to celebrate with the ones you love. 🌷

Trump’s tariffs are erratic and hitting Michigan hard. Even Trump voters are stunned by the chaos: "I didn't think he'd go ham on the entire world, I thought it would be a bit more pick and choose as far as who he went after." 🎧: @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/04/18/p...

This tells you everything you need to know about the Republican budget. It’s a scam of the American people and a windfall for the wealthy and well connected. We need leaders who have a clear vision, eyes and ears open to listen to YOU, the people. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-p...

I've heard from Republicans and Democrats alike at my town halls and one thing is certain: higher costs and a crashing stock market are not what people voted for.
