Love this! I wish you could ease over to my school right outside HD8 in Oak Park♥️
Luther Keith was not only my constituent..he was also a close family friend. Luther was a true servant leader in Detroit, he was the founder of Arise Detroit Neighborhood’s Day. His legacy will continue and he will be truly be missed!

I disagree English should be the national language if I have developed my own language.
Please urge Governor Whitmer to follow Illinois governor Pritzger's lead and sign an order banning all pardoned Jan. 6 from state employment. They've showed what they're willing to do to government buildings, including capitol buildings
Last week I stood up for workers to demand a fair living wage from my GOP colleagues!

Thank you. We constituents need to see a strong response about Canada and trump's tariffs. What is your response?
Last week I offered up an amendment to HB4001 to advocate to raise the minimum wage for workers in the state of Michigan🇺🇸

The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) has been codified by the 34 required states, however it is NOT YET in the Constitution.
Now all that is required to make it law is for President Biden to call the National Archives and direct them to publish the ERA as the 28th Amendment. On Tuesday, January 14th (from 2-4pm) text President Biden to urge him to publish the ERA Amendment at this number: (302)404-0880 #era28thamendment

It was ratified by the 38th state (Virginia) in 2020. Yet, here we are. It is a risky move given the SCOTUS we have. But if the GOP - Congress or SCOTUS - kills it, at least it is on them.
Thank you for this. However, here in Ferndale we're being asked to pay even higher taxes, and yet if the state released federal revenue-sharing dollars as they're supposed to, we could keep our police, fire department intact and restore the DPW clearing all our streets as they used to. Why aren't we being given the money we're supposed to get, as one city in Michigan after another faces a budget crisis and higher taxes? We need your attention on this. Work to get our revenue-sharing money released.
So excited to be serving in my 3rd term in the 103rd Michigan State Legislature in the House of Representatives HD8🇺🇸
