This Pride Month, we celebrate the freedom to live authentically, love openly, and be unapologetically yourself. In a time when acceptance and equality still matter deeply, Pride reminds us that love remains a powerful force for change.

Today, this month, and always: love wins! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The new Acrisure Amphitheater is open to all! This is an exciting, transformative time for Grand Rapids. I hope this new venue makes more folks want to call GR their home.

Don’t forget to stop by the (free!) community day, happening now until 10pm!

Wishing all the amazing moms a very Happy Mother’s day today! Thanks for all you do!

I had a great time being part of our community cleanup this weekend. Picking up trash, meeting neighbors, and seeing hundreds of people show up for our city. I’m so proud of our community for coming together and making a difference across GR!

Let's make Grand Rapids shine! ☀️☀️☀️
Join me and hundreds of others to be part of a citywide community cleanup happening across Grand Rapids on May 1 & May 2.

From downtown to neighborhoods across the city, this is a chance to build community, take pride in our city, and make a visible impact-together. Plus, volunteers can enjoy a Friday happy hour at Studio Park and Saturday activities at John Ball Park as a thank-you.

The Kent County Prosecutor has concluded his review and reached a decision not to file criminal charges in the shooting of Da'quain Johnson. I respect the independence of the Prosecutor’s Office and the Michigan State Police investigation, but I also recognize that this news is deeply painful for many in our community.

The loss of Mr. Johnson remains a profound tragedy, and I continue to mourn alongside his family. My commitment to transparency and the highest professional standards does not end with this decision. I will continue to evaluate our policies and practices to ensure the safety of all as I remain acutely aware of the dangerous nature of police work and the split-second decisions officers must make in the interest of public safety. I appreciate the ongoing professionalism shown by our officers as we navigate this period of healing together.

Congratulations to Phil Strom as he officially became our new City Attorney today! This role carries a lot of responsibility, and it requires great leadership, expertise, and commitment to public service. I'm confident that Phil's integrity and judgment will serve our City well.
