Do I understand correctly that this stupid bill must now go back to the House, which means that Speaker Johnson has a lot to think about? Can he find a way to avoid swearing in Grijalva, even with the House in session, thus further confirming the Epstein cover-up?

Government should always serve the people.

🏠We need affordable housing so every Michigander can have a safe place to call home
👧FREE childcare for every parent
🔍And Transparency in our government

When government actually works for the people it serves, we move Michigan forward.

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

Hegseth says the U.S. is now acquiring military equipment for the purpose of war. So, I guess the acquiring weapons for fun is over now.

Our freedom was won by brave women and men who answered the call — including the heroic First Nations, Inuit, and Métis members of the Canadian Armed Forces.

On Indigenous Veterans Day, we honour the sacrifice of those who have served, those who serve today, and their families.
