I want to give a huge thank you to the MI Coalition Against Homelessness for inviting me to stop by this week and their innovative work around housing. 🏠
Housing is the foundation for everything: education, health, employment, stability, and wealth.
Ending homelessness means thinking bigger — not just managing crisis but building a full housing cycle that works for everyone.
We must rebuild our housing system by working together and focusing on things like- cutting housing costs, being innovative with the types of housing we incentivize, and prioritizing home ownership opportunities to name a few.
I look forward to working together!

It was an honor to convene in New Orleans with passionate, brilliant leaders from across the country at the BLLN National Leadership Summit. We met several legends and looked at where we are headed in the future. Im grateful for the connections, the knowledge shared, and the collective energy to keep moving forward. 🖤✊🏾

Today closes out Black Maternal Health Week. Black mothers are 2-3 times more likely to die of preventable emergencies during birth and pregnancy. I have personally sat with the children of my constituents mourning the fact that their mother is no longer with us. Seeing the pain of a child who will never know their mother is crushing, but knowing it was preventable is unbearable.
Let’s continue doing the work of closing the disparity gap in healthcare and ensuring that Black mothers are here to grow old with their families ❤️🧸

I was honored to be a co-moderator for an inspiring afternoon at Innovation Central High School! Students from Innovation Central and Grand Rapids Montessori joined us for a discussion on the impact of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).🎓
A big thank you to Jash’d Belcher and Zion for inviting me. Thank you to our incredible panelists—Dr. Leadriane Roby, Jash’d Belcher, Valissa Armstead, Eric Brown, Dr. Keli Christopher, and Shannon Harris—for sharing your HBCU experience. 👏🏾
Together, we’re paving the way for the next generation of leaders!

What is happening right now in America is not normal. The chaos we see and feel is intentional- but it didn’t come out of nowhere. 🇺🇸
This moment was created by the miseducation of our children 📚, the villainization of Americans in need, and the racial unrest that this country was built on.
We the people of this country have a choice. If we want to change the path we are on we have to change the things that got us here.
Salute to @senbooker for defying business as usual by taking time to educate us on what’s happening and calling out the powers that be. 🏛️ All of us have our own part to play!
