21 years ago today, Matt and I were married. Through this journey we’ve learned to turn pain into purpose - we’ve learned to celebrate the good days and learn from the hard ones, knowing cake always has a place in both, and frankly, there is no one I’d rather share it with.

Honor Flight isn’t about politics. It is about connection.
Veterans from different wars, races, and backgrounds came home with one message:
What matters isn’t what divides us — it’s that we show up for each other.

Attended a moving Habitat for Humanity home dedication for 2 families—one who supported the U.S. military in Afghanistan. These aren’t just homes—they’re hope. Community is alive and well. We rise or fall together. This weekend, we chose to rise. 🏠❤️ #MI01 #HabitatForHumanity

At events across #MI01, I’m hearing the same things:
🏠 Housing is out of reach
🏥 Fear for our hospitals
😓 Folks are tired of being tired
But I’m also seeing people step up—registering voters, talking to neighbors, refusing to give up on our future. 💪 #fightingforlifewecanafford

In a virtual press conference that included Jamie Mills, a licensed consultant for employee benefits plans, and Richard Douglass, a social epidemiologist, we discussed the impact that ACA subsidy cuts will have on our country and our local communities.

Bergman lies. No undocumented immigrant is eligible for ACA subsidies or Medicaid. But:
👉 Bergman voted to add $4 trillion to the debt for tax breaks to the wealthy. And he's paying for it by
refusing to extend ACA subsidies and backing Medicaid cuts that put our rural hospitals at risk.

Bergman’s ok adding 4T to the debt for rich ppl tax breaks—but won’t protect your healthcare.
ACA subsidies are ending, Medicaid’s cut, premiums are up 98%, and hospitals are closing services across the district.
Maybe he’d care—if he lived here.
But at least Musk isn’t paying more in taxes. 🇺🇸
