The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative is the most significant investment ever made to restore and protect our Great Lakes. I’ll keep working in a bipartisan way to get this commonsense bill passed into law to help protect the Great Lakes for future generations.

Exciting progress in downtown Traverse City! Once completed, this pedestrian bridge will give folks a glimpse into the FishPass project that will help protect the Great Lakes ecosystem by sorting local fish from invasive species like sea lamprey.

The court did the right thing, but this clearly shouldn’t have become policy in the first place. Now, FEMA needs to immediately release this funding to help keep communities safe.

Very proud that my wife Colleen was honored with the Congressional Families Leadership Award today for her work to increase cancer awareness and early detection. She is truly the most important person in my life, and I am so lucky to be by her side.

Since the beginning of Trump’s war with Iran, Michiganders have watched their gas prices go up and up. Instead of working towards ending this war and bringing costs down, the President is now considering a further escalation of the conflict.

I’m proud to join Michiganders in recognizing our first PFAS Awareness Week. I'll never stop fighting to clean up contaminated sites, keep PFAS out of our drinking water, and hold polluters accountable.

I’m aware of the plane crash near Traverse City. I am closely monitoring the situation as we work to get more information on the incident. Praying that the pilot and folks on the ground are safe.

Once completed, the Michigan Veteran Homes D.J. Jacobetti will help ensure veterans in the U.P. continue to receive quality care long into the future. I was proud to support this new construction by securing a $57 million federal investment in 2023.

As I have repeatedly said, the Postal Service does not administer elections and they have no legal authority to issue this rule. I will continue the fight to protect access to the ballot box.

The Supreme Court upheld the law and denied the Trump Administration’s demands to rewrite the rules for absentee ballots just weeks before the election.

During my motorcycle tour, we learned about the Bay City Fire Department’s plans to use federal funding I helped secure to protect firefighters from toxic PFAS contamination and purchase critical safety equipment.

Thank you Humane Society of West Michigan for your caring work and partnership over the years to support survivors of domestic violence and their pets. I am proud to stand by them through my work in Congress, and I will always fight to protect our four-legged friends.

Securing our nation from cyberattacks is one of the most important national security challenges we face. Ferris State University is helping to make sure we are prepared by training the next generation of cyber professionals.

In Traverse City today, we toured the nearly finished FishPass project downtown. Once completed, we will have the ability to sort native fish from harmful invasive species like sea lamprey in the Boardman/Ottaway River.
