U.S. Senator for the great state of Michigan. Dog mom, Michigander. Fighting for better jobs, lower health care costs, and cleaner politics.
President Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill puts *everyone* watching this at risk of either losing their primary insurance or paying more for health care. This is a health care conversation. Because what President Trump couldn’t do in his first term — repealing Obamacare — he is…
Between the President and I, one of us served in a war zone. One of us wakes up and respects the constitution. I challenge him any day of the week on who is patriotic.
With President Trump in the White House, now is not the time to be careful or polite. We need to play as a team. We need a plan. That’s what I set out to do with my Economic War Plan.
The shrinking middle class is an existential threat to our nation. When people feel like they can’t get ahead. They blame other people.
Like Detroit Lions grit, Elissa Slotkin wants Democrats to bring back ‘alpha energy’ mlive.com/politics/2025/…
Our most existential threat is not coming from overseas, it’s the shrinking middle class. Politicians from both parties strayed from prioritizing the middle class, and my Economic War Plan calls for ruthlessly focusing on rebuilding our economy for them. nytimes.com/2025/07/17/us/…
“With a growing number of reports of individuals impersonating ICE officers in recent months, this measure is more important than ever — not just for our national security but for the safety of border states like Michigan.” -@ElissaSlotkin michiganadvance.com/briefs/slotkin…
Great meeting in beautiful Leelanau County this weekend. Folks asked smart questions about President Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. Above all, this is a healthcare conversation, and it's on all of us to continue educating people about the very real threats the bill poses to middle…

There is nowhere else in America better than being on the waters of the Grand Traverse Bay in July.


President Trump ran on lowering costs. But now, he's making middle class Americans pay in every part of their lives. We have to stay relentlessly focused on the economy and costs, regardless of how President Trump tries to distract us.
We need an affirmative, positive vision for our country. It's time for offense, not just defense. That's why I laid out my Economic War Plan for America.
We need to get back to basics. That means focusing ruthlessly on the economy, on health care, on housing. That’s what I am focused on in my Economic War Plan.
The debate is no longer progressive vs. moderate; that is very 2017. The debate is how do you answer one question: Is the second Trump administration an existential threat to democracy or is it bad but survivable? I believe it is an existential threat. nytimes.com/2025/06/27/us/…
U.S. Senators Gary Peters and Elissa Slotkin called the GOP megabill "reckless," "irresponsible," and said that "history will not be kind to this bill." wlns.com/top-stories/re…
Republicans need to decide who they want to be. President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” guts SNAP and food benefits. Our farmers and kids lose.
President Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" is designed to be a perfect storm for the middle class. If you are living at or below the poverty line, you're gonna get hit in every direction: your health care, your food, other programs you depend on. All to pay for tax breaks for the…
I did a little middle-class math on President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. It’s not good. Tax benefits for the wealthiest. Higher health care costs for everyone else. You better believe this is the same health care fight from Trump’s first term.
