Amazing news! I was one of the first members to lead a delegation letter urging the Biden Administration to lift Canadian travel restrictions, and I'm thrilled that that day has finally come. This means so much to families on both sides in the US and Canada. — PolitiTweet.org

Child care workers rank in the 2nd percentile of earners nationwide; that's poverty level wages for essential work. Take a listen to today's The Daily to learn more about the dire state of child care and why we must prioritize the #CareEconomy in the #BuildBackBetter agenda. — PolitiTweet.org

The federal funding I helped secure aided 5,000 small businesses, 117 nonprofits, and 12,000 county workers throughout Wayne County. We need to continue to support all of our communities' recovery with the #BuildBackBetter agenda. — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you @MIAttyGen for joining me in this fight to protect reliable, timely mail service! This is a necessity for Michiganders. https://t.co/caJYGdiWb3 — PolitiTweet.org

On #WorldMentalHealthDay, let’s remember to end the stigma around mental health and highlight resources for those seeking help. Remember that you are not alone and can always call the Lifeline Chat at 800-273-8255. https://t.co/kHAnIAGhWx — PolitiTweet.org

Last night, I had an amazing time at the Torch of Wisdom Foundation's "Honoring Local Heroes" Gala. We recognized two incredible Michigan leaders, @GovWhitmer and @JocelynBenson, who have done so much for children and families in Southeast Michigan. https://t.co/XkOY2mUVBi — PolitiTweet.org

Women are getting left behind, and it's inexcusable. Now more than ever, we need the #BuildBackBetter agenda to invest in child care, create jobs, and support women and families. It's long overdue. — PolitiTweet.org

Grateful that the @USEdGov approved MI's plan for COVID relief for our schools. The pandemic took a huge toll on our education system, and this funding I helped secure in the American Rescue Plan will significantly help our students, teachers, and staff. https://t.co/ia8sP0GwFU — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, 20 AGs also recognized the dangers of delayed mail delivery. As a 30-year @USPS veteran, I will always fight to ensure the agency upholds its commitment to prompt mail delivery, which is why I led a letter seeking answers about these service changes. — PolitiTweet.org

It's outrageous to see yet another community in Michigan affected by lead in their drinking water. This is why the Bipartisan Infrastructure Framework is so important, because it includes funding to replace lead pipes and increases access to safe, clean drinking water. — PolitiTweet.org

"A median child care worker in MI would have to spend 49% of her earnings to put her own child in infant care." The #BuildBackBetter agenda increases access to affordable child care & boosts compensation for those who take care of our children. https://t.co/b61Vc1xcTt — PolitiTweet.org

Michigan Republicans are pushing the "Big Lie." Voting is a right, and we won't stand for these blatant attempts to make it harder to vote. https://t.co/WVmusVsyav — PolitiTweet.org

October is #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth. Let's spend this month raising awareness, educating ourselves, and supporting survivors. Remember to get screened and encourage those around you to do the same, it could save lives. https://t.co/avJXMZDIj3 — PolitiTweet.org

The United States is falling behind when it comes to access to affordable child care. We've kicked this can down the road for far too long. It's time we make the necessary investments in the #CareEconomy, & we can do that with the #BuildBackBetter agenda. https://t.co/cOOzE6MjLP https://t.co/cmPxxSpD8p — PolitiTweet.org

This ruling to temporarily block #SB8 comes as a relief to so many, but the fight is far from over. The Senate must vote on the House-passed #WomensHealthProtectionAct and protect reproductive freedom. — PolitiTweet.org

We love to see it! #HerQuarter — PolitiTweet.org

⬇️ This report found that a Michigan family of 4 would save over $18k on child care under the #BuildBackBetter plan. Investing in the #CareEconomy helps children, families, child care workers, and the entire economy. It's a no-brainer. — PolitiTweet.org

I applaud the Biden Administration for rescinding the harmful Trump-era Title X Gag Rule. This is a huge win for reproductive health care and justice. https://t.co/Gu12L4cygU — PolitiTweet.org

PMG Louis DeJoy's unvetted decision to slow down mail means that millions of Americans are going to pay more for less. I worked at the @USPS for 30 years & know that these service changes contradict what the agency stands for--prompt, reliable service. We deserve an explanation. https://t.co/UyLL6kN7sZ — PolitiTweet.org

It was great to speak at Southfield's Walk to Raise Awareness of Domestic Violence over the weekend. There is nothing partisan or political about ending domestic violence. That's why I voted to reauthorize the #ViolenceAgainstWomenAct and urge the Senate to do the same. https://t.co/06zac7eMUv — PolitiTweet.org

Honored to have @SecFudge in Detroit yesterday as we announced a $30 million Choice Neighborhood Implementation Grant for Corktown.
