Our state budget should reflect our values — not betray them. Michigan Senate Democrats remain at the table ready to negotiate a budget that truly puts Michiganders first — and we won’t stop fighting for the priorities that matter most to our residents. ... See MoreSee Less

Smoky the firehouse dog and I were just thrilled to help break ground at the Grand Rapids Fire Department’s new state of the art training facility! I am so proud to have helped secure funding for this project, and I'm always working in Lansing to bring home more investments that support our first responders. 🚒

As the only facility of its class in Michigan, our first responders will soon have 10,000 square feet to train both indoors and outdoors in live fire situations. They’ll learn technical and emergency rescue skills that will help prepare them to save lives. Students from our universities and career training programs will be exposed to pathways to an amazing career. In short, this will be a crown jewel of training for the whole Midwest. Smoky approves! ... See MoreSee Less

Last week, I met with advocates for public transportation in my district. They told important stories about the difference quality public transit has made for them. Whether someone doesn’t drive because of a disability, a limited budget, or a personal choice — access to reliable and safe transportation is a critical part of keeping our economy strong and our quality of life high in Michigan. As we continue to negotiate a state budget, I'll keep fighting to protect vital public transit funding that keeps our communities connected and thriving. ... See MoreSee Less
