Our team did it again! We worked incredibly hard to secure $15.7 million for 15 community projects in every corner of the 12th District for important infrastructure upgrades, lead service line replacement, home repair, workforce development, affordable housing, and so much more.
ICE is terrorizing our communities with military-grade assault rifles & tear gas. For decades, our neighbors in Southwest Detroit have warned us that they're too militarized. They're right. Stop funding them.
ICE needs to be abolished.
We’ve brought home $19,254,097 for 14 community projects in Detroit! This funding will improve the lives of our neighbors by providing home repairs, affordable housing, lead abatement, flood recovery resources, workforce development, and access to affordable health care.
We’ve also funded projects throughout the 12th District. We secured $17.1 million for 15 community projects for lead removal, home repairs, affordable housing, flood recovery resources, and more! Since I’ve been in Congress, we’ve brought home over $52 million in community project funding for our residents.
The Israeli apartheid regime is still committing genocide in Gaza and violently erasing entire communities across Palestine and Lebanon. We know the Nakba never ended; we are witnessing it live.
With the help of the corrupt far-right Supreme Court, Republicans are trying to take us back to a Jim Crow South. This time not with hoods, but with maps that attempt to disenfranchise and take away the rights of Black Americans. Like those who came before, we will not back down in fighting back.
The Nakba never ended. The Israeli apartheid regime is still committing genocide in Gaza and violently erasing entire communities across Palestine and Lebanon. I'm leading a resolution to recognize the 78th anniversary of Nakba and reaffirm Palestinian refugees' right of return.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms in Southeast Michigan and across our country. I started the Congressional Mamas’ Caucus because too often the needs of our mothers are neglected in Congress. Let’s honor them with action and put in the work to invest in their well-being.
I’m introducing the Make DTE Pay Act because it’s outrageous that DTE keeps raising our energy bills while poisoning the air we breathe. We deserve clean air, affordable energy, and utility companies that put people over profits. Our bill will force DTE to follow the law.
I was proud to deliver $1,250,000 in Community Project Funding for the new Jack E. Kirksey Community Recreation Center in Livonia. This center will be a great addition for the well-being of our community.
For us to save mothers, we must acknowledge the crisis. I am introducing a Resolution Recognizing National Postpartum Awareness Week for Communities of Color to combat institutional racism and build an equitable healthcare system.
I’m leading a letter to the Trump Admin about the illegal Israeli military attack on the Flotilla and the abduction of civilians, including Americans, heading to Gaza to deliver humanitarian aid. We are demanding an end to the blockade on Gaza and the release of the two remaining captives.
It's shameful that CEOs are making 285 times more than the workers who keep their companies running on starvation wages. We need to take on corporate greed and pass the Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act.
