Whatupdoe! Happy 324 to the 313!

Fellas, is it woke to cure cancer?

What’s more important? Partisan politics or the safety of our children? Trump is firing people who make sure strollers and bicycles are safe for children. His actions are once again illegal and putting the public at risk. washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/…

Trump is trying to distract the country from the truth. Keep asking questions. Release the files.

The facts are in: Trump’s tariffs are damaging Michigan’s auto industry and putting good union jobs at risk.

Mike Johnson is protecting predators. He’s sending Congress home until September to block a vote on the Epstein files. This is a cover-up, plain and simple.

Happy to report that Head Start in Detroit received $3,468,081 from @HHSGov to support their critical work. This funding will go a long way to ensuring everyone in #MI13 receives world-class childcare.

12 years ago, Detroit filed for the largest city bankruptcy in U.S. history. Today? Our city has emerged stronger: investing in our neighborhoods and rebuilding with resilience. Thanks to the people of #MI13, our community's best days are ahead.

Everyone deserves access to quality, affordable healthcare. But thanks to Trump’s ugly budget bill, insurance rates are going up by double digits. Michigan deserves better than this broken, for-profit healthcare system. freep.com/story/money/bu…

An educated workforce means economic growth. Instead, Republicans and the Trump Administration decided to cut education spending to fund giveaways for billionaires. If billionaires paid their fair share, we wouldn’t have to rob our kids’ classrooms to fund their yachts.

I don’t know about you, but I’d like to know what “wonderful secrets” our sitting president was talking about here.

The GOP is slashing $9B from PBS, NPR, and USAID. This isn’t just dollars; it’s science, facts, and human stories on the line. They cut public media, and then they cut taxes for billionaires.

Five years ago today, we lost civil rights icon John Lewis. Now, our President is actively seeking to build division, and Lewis’s words about getting in “good trouble” have never been more true. I hope to honor his life and legacy by standing up for what is right.

Translation: President Trump is imposing another 10% tax on American consumers.

This isn't party loyalty; it's moral failure. Every GOP member voted to block the release of the Epstein files, and I think we all know why.

Today, we will vote on whether to release the Epstein files. The American people want to see those names, so pay attention to who wants to keep them hidden.

Prices are rising. Trump promised to bring down inflation, but his tariffs are driving costs back up. Remember that next time you look at your grocery bill. wsj.com/economy/inflat…

Our nation made a bipartisan promise to ensure no working family, child, or senior goes hungry. We must uphold this promise, not break it. Gutting food assistance in the budget bill does not serve the people; it starves them.

Michigan’s public education is ranked 44th in the country. It needs major change and more investment in our children’s future. Instead, Trump and his administration are illegally withholding over $170 million from Michigan schools, hurting our district more than any other.

Trump’s budget will rip health insurance away from 300,000 Michiganders. Republicans are gutting your care to bankroll tax breaks for billionaires. detroitnews.com/story/news/pol…
