State Representative Joey Andrews join Present Pillars in Celebrating Second Chances!❤️
On March 15 we hosted our Spring Expungement Resource Fair supporting 198 individuals on their journey toward a clean slate and brighter future.
State Representative Joey Andrews, came and praised our efforts in the community.
“I think Present Pillars is one of the best nonprofits active in the Benton Harbor community right now—doing great work for fathers, doing great work in the community.”
Rep. Andrews emphasized the importance of second chances saying, “a record keeps people from getting a job, from good housing… Giving people a chance to clean their record up and go back to being productive members of society is the ideal.”
At Present Pillars we believe restoration is possiblee with the support of community and dedicated supporters, we’re opening doors that once seemed closed.
We can only do it with your help, donate to Present Pillars here:

Thank you to everyone who made this event a success!

I voted in favor of the $3.1 billion road funding plan, and our lakeshore communities are estimated to receive nearly $13 million! This investment will help improve our roads, create jobs, and support economic growth. While this is a major step forward, we must continue working toward a long-term, sustainable road funding solution.

The 38th District is behind your yes vote 🗳 to fix the ... roads.
Boy it would be nice to get some of that money so our township could afford gravel 😂 Oh and maybe the county can run an actual grader rather than the plow trucks that push the gravel into the ditches. 🤷🏼♂️ And why don't we put that 13 million into perspective. Thats 13 miles of road... or less... pretty much a drop in the bucket around here but it's better than nothing.
Thank you!!
The South Haven Education Association is organizing a National Walk-In on March 19!
This event highlights the importance of Title 1 Reading & Math, Special Education, and English Language Development programs, which receive $800,000 annually in funding. Cuts to these programs could impact students who need them most.
Educators, parents, and community members will gather before school at multiple SHPS locations to show their support and help put a face to the funding!
See the flyer for school-specific walk-in times.

Looking forward to more events!
Great showing!
Bummed I couldn't make it. Glad it was such a good turnout!
Today, I stood with State Representative Julie M. Rogers and the hardworking members of BCTGM International Union Local 3G at Knappen Milling in Augusta, MI as they fight for fair wages, safer working conditions, and the restoration of their union security clause. Workers deserve respect and a fair contract!

Thank you, Governor Gretchen Whitmer, for visiting our district this morning at Forté Coffee! We had a great discussion on roads, the needs of local businesses, and the risks of rising costs from tariffs. Appreciate your leadership and commitment to these critical issues!

Love our state and state government.
I wished you represented the City of Fennville instead of Smit.
Recently, I visited Benton Harbor High School to check out the Schools to Tools Mobile Field Trip. Students explored skilled trades through hands-on challenges, virtual reality experiences, and more. Thank you to the Michigan Regional Council of Carpenters and Millwrights for bringing this incredible opportunity to our community!
