Senator Gary Peters

Republicans are bypassing bipartisan laws — that many of them voted for themselves — so they can be a rubber stamp for President Trump’s harmful cuts.    This Administration is willing to put anything that helps you on the chopping block.

Over recent weeks, the humanitarian situation in Gaza has worsened significantly. There are credible reports that innocent people are going days without eating and that life-threatening violence around aid distribution sites is making it too dangerous for families to get food,…

You learn a lot when you become an Eagle Scout: how to work together, how to deal with adversity, and how to stay dry on rainy nights with nothing but a tarp. I've carried those lessons with me my whole life, and I loved sharing them with Scouts visiting Capitol Hill today.

Each and every day, Americans depend on goods delivered by truck drivers. I'm fighting to make sure these workers get the wages, benefits, and retirement they deserve.

The bill just signed by President Trump will strip Medicaid coverage from millions of Michiganders. This won’t just hurt vulnerable families — it will place an even greater burden on our small and rural hospitals, making it harder for everyone to get the care they need.

We kicked off our first National Hot Dog Day in the U.S. Senate on Wednesday. Here’s what Michiganders had to say.

On Friday, I helped celebrate the opening of a brand-new gate and entrance facility at Battle Creek Air National Guard Base. This upgrade, supported by funding I worked to secure, will enhance safety and security for the servicemembers that operate on the base.

In the early morning, Republicans rolled over for President Trump and rescinded funding that many of them voted for in the first place to support local public media and U.S. security interests around the globe. My full statement:

We’ve officially brought National Hot Dog Day to the U.S. Senate! Thank you to @sengarypeters for joining me in hosting today and sharing the joy of Coney dogs, Better Made Chips, Faygo, Vernor’s, root beer floats, dried cherries and Michigan whiskey with a sell-out crowd of…

Happy National Hot Dog Day! There's only one way to celebrate. A Coney Dog, the Michigan way.

Because of the bill President Trump just signed into law, families in our state could lose the ability to afford life-saving medical care like cancer treatments. Just to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.   It’s unconscionable.

Semiconductor chips are vital to our future. That’s why I fought for legislation to attract these investments to the U.S. But chaotic policy changes & tariffs undermine the stability businesses look for and Michigan is paying the price. I’ll keep fighting to bring more jobs…

From tariffs to the bill he just signed into law that rips health care and food assistance away from millions of Americans –President Trump is dead set on making life more expensive for hardworking families.

Thanks to the bill President Trump just signed into law, hospitals like Genesee Health System could lose the Medicaid funding they rely on to provide mental health services. It'll be harder for Michiganders to get the care they need — all so billionaires can have tax cuts.

Battle Creek Air National Guard Base operates critical missions that protect our national security from emerging threats.   I was proud to bring home funding for much-needed upgrades at the base to help ensure our servicemembers can carry out their work safely and securely.

Violence targeting law enforcement is never acceptable. I condemn the recent attacks on officers in the line of duty.

When officers don't identify themselves during immigration enforcement operations, it risks escalation and puts both them and members of the public at risk.   That's why I cosponsored legislation requiring those officers to have clearly displayed identification.

Happy birthday to my friend and colleague @SenatorSlotkin! I’m proud to fight for Michigan alongside you every day in the Senate.
