We do not want another war!

Congress needs to take back their power and stop Trump's war.

No War with Iran. There is always endless funding for wars and corporations, but never for the American people.

It is immoral to profit off of war, and should be illegal.

Even though corporate bosses try to convince us otherwise, it is the labor of working class people that creates all profits.

The Sit-Down Strike serves as a reminder that withholding labor is our most powerful tool.

Michigan’s climate legislation was meant to move us toward clean energy over time. However, the legislation has loopholes that will likely be exploited due to hyperscale data centers high energy usage.Β

Insider: Former DTE Energy CEO helping Duggan campaign develop policy plans The revelation could be controversial this year amid criticism from both sides of the aisle about Michigan's rising electricity rates.

This alone disqualifies Duggan for Governor. We need a governor who isn't beholden to DTE.

The moment our Resolution was formally read into the Michigan House.

For more than two years, the world has watched a livestreamed genocide.What makes that possible is American-supplied weapons.

Michigan taxpayers have contributed over $420 million to the genocide since 2023.

If you are wondering how the Republican controlled Michigan House Oversight is going today.

Rep. Jaime Thompson is testifying arguing that LGBTQIA+ students are not being bullied at school. Yet kids are instead bullied for being "pretty".

While this β€œdeal” is being announced, I want to make it clear that there are 149 people that get to make this decision not 3.

We haven't been provided the details.

I look forward to analyzing the budget once it is provided to us.

Standing in solidarity with the Michigan Education Association and AFT Michigan demanding that schools are fully funded and the budget is passed on time!

We need to invest in public education not make cuts.

Our government helps fund Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This is immoral & illegal. Electeds & orgs must send a message to MI’s Senators and Reps: demand no more weapons for Israel, allow aid in Gaza, and restore visas for Palestinians.

$40 Billion to one company.

$6.24 Billion in state tax breaks.
$18 Billion in local tax breaks.
$16 Billion in federal tax breaks.

With the State portion alone we could buy the Detroit Lions.

We don't have enough money for clean water, fully funded schools, or drivable roads.

Yet Michigan’s economic development office offered more than $6 BILLION in corporate handouts to ONE single company, and yet Sandisk still didn't come.

Duggan does not have our interests at heart. Just look to his donors.

β€œA Metro Times analysis of Duggan’s fundraising shows a sizable share comes from donors of President Donald Trump, GOP party leaders, and conservative power brokers with vested interests in state policy.”

Federal Republicans just gave one of the largest tax cuts to the rich in US History.

Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the MEDC offered over $6 BILLION to a single corporation.

This is Oligarchy.

This bill could have massive implications on what we in the Michigan House need to do in order to fill the funding gaps created by these Trump-backed tax cuts. If this legislation passes, it would also serve as one of the biggest handouts to the wealthy in US History. (2/2)

Today, Trump’s bill passed the Senate. If it passes in the House it would cut $930B from Medicaid over the next decade. This bill also makes major cuts to SNAP (food stamp) benefits. We are in the middle of budget season in Lansing. (1/2)
