Happy to return to Grand Blanc Community Schools last week to visit with high school students in AP Government students, which is always something I look forward to.

We had a really good conversation about what’s going on in the political world and how it connects to our communities here in Michigan. The students asked thoughtful questions and brought their own perspectives, which makes these visits so worthwhile.

Appreciate the invitation as always.

Last month, I joined State Senator Mallory McMorrow to introduce legislation to ban surveillance pricing online and dynamic pricing in retail, and we testified in committee to move this effort forward.

Too often, companies use personal data and real-time information to charge people different prices for the same goods. That is not fair, especially as families are already dealing with higher costs. Senate Bills 991 and 992 would stop these practices and protect Michigan consumers from algorithm-driven price hikes based on where they live or when they shop.

The bills are currently before the Senate Committee on Economic and Community Development.

Three years ago, I cast one of the most meaningful votes of my time in the Michigan Senate: expanding the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act to protect LGBTQ+ Michiganders from discrimination.

Pride began as a protest, and the rights and protections we celebrate today didn’t happen by accident. They were earned through decades of advocacy, courage, and determination from people who refused to give up on a more equal Michigan.

As we celebrate Pride Month, I’m proud of the progress we’ve made and committed to continuing the work of ensuring equality for every Michigander.

Happy Pride 🖤🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🤎

For nearly two decades, workers at American Axle in Three Rivers have sacrificed to keep their company going. They deserve fair wages, strong benefits, job security, and a contract that reflects the billions in profits they’ve helped generate.

I stand in solidarity with UAW Local 2093 as they fight for a fair deal and urge American Axle to negotiate in good faith before the current contract expires on May 31.

This past week I had the pleasure of meeting the Michigan State University 2026 Glassen Scholar cohort. These dedicated students are the future of environmental conservation in Michigan, pursuing degrees and careers centered in natural resources policy, conservation, and environmental sustainability. Together we discussed many challenges and potential solutions facing Michigan’s treasured resources. Safe to say that the future of our States' great lands and waters is in good hands.

A safe home is a human right.

Today, my mobile home reform package passed the Senate with strong bipartisan support. This work has been a priority for me since a constituent first raised it at a coffee hour while I was serving in the Michigan House.

Every Michigander deserves safe, affordable housing, and protecting existing communities is a big step forward. Looking forward to continued support in the House and from the Governor.

May is Double Up Food Bucks Awareness Month, and I’m proud to continue supporting a program that helps Michigan families bring home more fresh fruits and vegetables while supporting local farmers and food retailers.

I’ve championed Double Up throughout my time in the Michigan Senate because it’s a program that delivers real results for families, farmers, and communities across Michigan.

There’s even more good news this year: shoppers can now earn up to $50 per day in Double Up Food Bucks, more than double the previous daily limit. Frozen fruits and vegetables with no added salt, sugar, or oil are also now eligible, giving families more flexibility while helping reduce food waste. Learn more at link in comments/bio.
