Congratulations to Laila Nasher, a dedicated community leader from Detroit, for becoming the first Yemeni American woman to earn the prestigious Truman Scholarship award. Born in Aden, Yemen, Laila is a student at Harvard studying social anthropology and history. So proud of you!

This Earth Day, I’m relentless in my advocacy for clean water and air. We won’t accept corporate polluters poisoning our communities as the norm. Michigan’s natural beauty must be protected for generations to come. Thank you Westland for inviting me to honor Earth Day.

People across our country are being forced to drink, bathe, cook, and wash dishes with water that is literally poisoning their bodies. That's why I'm leading an appropriations request for $1.5 billion in funding for lead service line replacement for the next fiscal year.

Our country isn’t just complicit in this genocide—we’re actively participating in it. This week, my colleagues want to vote to send over $26B more of our tax dollars to Netanyahu as he carries out the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

This Black Maternal Health Week, I'm urging Congress to pass the Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act, which will extend WIC eligibility, fund community-based organizations, prioritize maternal mental health, and more.
