This week, we took a major step to support Michigan workers! The bipartisan passage of SB 40 restored 26 weeks of unemployment benefits & raised the weekly max benefit to $614 for the first time in 20+ years. Proud to stand with my colleagues to put workers and families first.

Thank you from AAUW of South Haven. This is a Bill that we have been supporting.
This is great. Now we gotta fix how a person can have a Unemployment hearing, judgement goes in their favor, receive the benefits to only get another letter weeks later saying "Oh we couldnt hear the testimony" Has another hearing with the same judge, then loses. Now may be on the hook to pay thousands of dollars back. So not fair.
Please support the 9 Pay Equity Bills that are currently in the Michigan House Labor Committee. Vote to send them out of committee so they can be voted on in the House. Thank you!
Yesterday, we took a significant step forward by passing legislation to support Michiganders who have been wrongfully convicted. This bill ensures that those who have lost years of their lives to injustice can access the resources they need to rebuild.
I’m proud to stand with my colleagues to right these wrongs and reaffirm our commitment to fairness and accountability in our justice system.

Thank you Joey!
This week I was proud to testify alongside @State Representative Graham Filler in support of our bipartisan effort to advance nuclear and hydrogen energy production in Michigan. House Bills 4753 and 5606-09 will help achieve clean energy goals, advance new nuclear technologies, create jobs, expand educational opportunities, invest in workforce development, and position Michigan as a national leader in clean, reliable energy.

Why not let the markets work? Eliminate regulation and let people who actually know how to make something work get the job done
Everytime the Govt starts picking winners and losers the taxpayers loose.
I'm excited to announce that 16 businesses across the lakeshore have been awarded over $1 million in Going PRO Talent Fund grants to train more than 600 workers for high-demand, high-wage careers. This investment boosts our local economy and strengthens our workforce!

While this is not the topic of your post, I'm not sure of another place to ask this so many people can see it. You owe the people you serve some transparency. First, what work have you done to save the tipped wage in Michigan? Second, please tell us where you stand on the proposed legislation, 6256, that will raise the gas tax and also create toll roads in Michigan. Will 94 be one of these toll roads? If you choose not to answer, that is up to you, but it just shows that you aren't willing to be honest with those that you serve.

State Representative Joey Andrews Our children can’t even read but sure let’s feed them birth control at school and teach them gender ideology as priority with bills such as 6068
I did this interview in September, but given the results of this election, it feels more prescient than ever.

One way to start making inroads with the people you've completely alienated is to #SaveMITips What is your plan to work with the Republicans to reverse the legislation that will negatively impact our hospitality industry?
Here’s an idea of how to get them back…. Don’t try to pass overreaching bills such as 6068 or not allowing parents to see public school content used The Democrat’s constant overreach and pushing of agendas is why almost the entire country went red - and until you admit to what is wrong with the party, it will continue to be that way Bill 6808 gives kids contraceptives behind their parent’s backs, says abortion is “family planning”, removes local clergy, and pushes the trans agenda If you pass it (along with trying to limit parent’s rights to see what their kids are being given to learn), there will be a mass exodus from the MI public school system.
