1/ Today, @HSGAC and @SenGaryPeters held a productive hearing on the 2022 Census and its impact on our local communities in Detroit, Michigan. The committee discussed ways to ensure the Census provides a fair and accurate count of Detroit's diverse population. — PolitiTweet.org

It was great to speak with small business owners from MI-14 about the issues that matter to them. Today’s @GS10KSmallBiz Advocacy Day was a wonderful opportunity to meet some of the people that serve as the backbone of our local economy. #makesmallbig https://t.co/RFlB6X8q0j — PolitiTweet.org

I proudly voted for the Respect for Marriage Act to protect marriage equality in Michigan and across the country. I will always fight for our most cherished freedoms – including the right to marry whomever we love. Period. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I was proud to vote for two critical bills that would protect a woman’s right to choose and those who cross state lines to access abortion care. 📢 ABORTION CARE IS HEALTHCARE 📢 https://t.co/CL9dMoOE4k — PolitiTweet.org

The #FY23NDAA strengthens U.S. security and provides a well-deserved pay raise for our troops. As Co-Chair of the @DemWomenCaucus, I am proud that the bill includes my bipartisan amendments to support our women in uniform. See my full statement here ⬇️ https://t.co/aVinrvwtL4 — PolitiTweet.org

I was proud to join my colleagues in voting for H.R. 6538, the Active Shooter Alert Act—bipartisan legislation to alert the public during a shooting. I will continue to fight and support measures that bring our nation’s gun violence epidemic to an end. We can’t wait any longer. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, @OversightDems held a hearing to examine the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn #RoevWade. The right to an abortion is a fundamental freedom that protects a deeply personal decision. I will not let anyone tell me that abortion care is not healthcare. https://t.co/W9PdJCb0nK — PolitiTweet.org

The latest jobs report shows we’re moving in the right direction. However, we need to do more to support women and families. To reach our country’s full economic potential and increase women’s labor force participation, we need to invest in child care. https://t.co/gYV5JpOzbd — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, I secured 15 Community Projects—totaling over $17 million—for MI-14 in the House Appropriations Funding bills. These projects will address important issues at home: community safety, workforce development, water infrastructure & so much more. https://t.co/9yWMjaw9YE — PolitiTweet.org

It doesn't have to be this way. Countless communities are being devastated by senseless gun violence. When will the Republican leaders stop catering to the NRA and start standing up for the American people? They may be ok with the status quo, but I'm not. https://t.co/cKFhvzFY9a — PolitiTweet.org

I’m blessed to have had a 30-year career at the @USPS. On #PostalWorkersDay, we recognize our dedicated postal workers who deliver for our communities. “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.” — PolitiTweet.org

Today is a day that our ancestors could only have dreamt of. Today, another glass ceiling has been broken. And today, we have the first Black woman to sit on the United States Supreme Court and her name is Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. — PolitiTweet.org

Another misguided ruling from the Supreme Court, restricting the EPA's ability and authority to protect the environment. This disastrous decision will harm our families, communities, and planet for generations. — PolitiTweet.org

We are doing the work to strengthen America’s infrastructure. Today, @AppropsDems will advance a bill that provides funds to rebuild bridges, airports, and passenger and commuter rail that people in Michigan and all over the nation rely on. https://t.co/gx9gqNRrPA https://t.co/t4lbpBLWii — PolitiTweet.org

During our House Appropriations Committee markup, my Republican colleague offered a heartless amendment to prohibit funding for women and girls’ reproductive health care. It’s shameful, and I voted against it. I will always fight to defend reproductive care. https://t.co/Cai6cUNXGC — PolitiTweet.org

Our water infrastructure is essential to our health and prosperity, and we must ensure it is strong & resilient.
