Earlier, we had the honor of welcoming five incredibly talented Plymouth-Canton students to the Capitol! They were named winners of the New York Times’ 100-Word Narrative Contest— all from Ms. Olivia Foster’s 21st Century Global Issues & Literature courses at PCEP.
In March, we had the honor of welcoming five incredibly talented Plymouth-Canton students to the Michigan State Capitol!

Sarah Moore and Dana Sassine were named winners of the New York Times’ (@nytimes ) 100-Word Narrative Contest, and Madeline Lenk, Patrick Ward, and Ye Won Paek were recognized as finalists — all from Ms. Olivia C. Foster’s 21st Century Global Issues & Literature courses at PCEP (@pccs_official )

Chosen out of more than 12,000 global submissions, these young writers achieved something truly extraordinary. I was proud to present each student and Ms. Foster with a special State of Michigan Tribute, announce them as my guests on the House floor, and give them a tour of our state’s historic Capitol building. Their creativity and achievements are nothing short of inspiring. 

👏 Congratulations to these remarkable young leaders!

Progress isn’t permanent unless we defend it. Today I stood alongside survivors, students, parents, and advocates to say: enough is enough. Let me be clear: you can’t say you care about families while repealing the laws that keep them alive.

Gun violence is the leading cause of death for children in America. That should shake us all.

Let me be clear: you can’t say you care about families while repealing the laws that keep them alive.

We will fight. We will vote. We will keep showing up. And we will win.

Today, we saw yet another page from the GOP extremist agenda that aims to divide Michiganders & tear families apart. Speaker Hall’s silence is deafening. While Republicans are busy looking backwards, House Dems are looking forward to actually helping people & providing relief.

Michigan families shouldn’t have to wonder if their healthcare, childcare, or schools will stay open. Trump’s reckless funding freeze creates chaos for working people while the wealthy remain untouched. Michigan families are depending on us. We must move forward with urgency & responsibility.

Accountability matters. Just as we hold opioid makers and predatory industries liable, firearm manufacturers must also be held to the same standard—no industry is above the law when it comes to public safety.
As the lead sponsor of HB 6184 I am proud to have testified to ensure the firearm industry is held accountable and communities across Michigan are safer.
