With dangerously high temperatures across Southeast Michigan, I highly encourage everyone to take steps to stay safe and cool over the next several days.
In addition to the current extreme heat, many residents in Northwest Detroit are currently without power. DTE is actively working to restore service and has deployed community support resources for those affected.
Whether you’re looking to escape the heat or need an air-conditioned place to go while your power is out, the following cooling centers are available throughout our district and nearby communities:
Detroit
• Adams Butzel Complex
10500 Lyndon Ave., Detroit, MI 48238
Monday–Friday: 8:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m.
Saturday: 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
• Crowell Recreation Center
16630 Lahser Rd., Detroit, MI 48219
Monday–Friday: 11:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m.
Saturday: 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
• Northwest Activities Center
18100 Meyers Rd., Detroit, MI 48235
Monday–Friday: 8:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m.
Saturday: 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
Oak Park
• Oak Park Community Center
14300 Oak Park Blvd., Oak Park, MI 48237
Open as a cooling center through Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
For residents affected by the northwest Detroit power outage, DTE community support vans will be available today from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. at:
• Adams Butzel Complex
• Crowell Recreation Center
Resource for older adults:
• Detroit Area Agency on Aging: 313-446-4444
DTE has shared that they are working to deploy 14 large diesel generators throughout the affected area. They expect residents impacted by the outage will have power restored first through these generators while crews continue investigating the issue.
At this time, we have been told that full power restoration is not expected until late tonight through the use of these generators.
Please continue to stay hydrated, limit your outdoor activity during the hottest part of the day when possible, and check on your neighbors, family members, and older adults who might need assistance.
If you or someone you know needs additional assistance during the extreme heat or because of the power outage, please reach out to my office. We are here to help connect you with available resources.

I had the honor last week to tour the TFA Detroit Summer Learning Institute (DSLI). It was amazing to see fledgling teachers leading a classroom for the first time, mentor teachers gaining new leadership skills, aspiring administrators learning how to direct and support an entire system, and, most importantly, kids learning new skills and having fun. Literally everyone across the spectrum from student to administrator was leading and learning at the same time. It was a beautiful thing to see in action, and it's encouraging to know we're about to have some brand new amazing teachers in Michigan classrooms this fall 🍎

Today, we recognize Juneteenth, a day to honor freedom, reflect on our history, and celebrate the resilience and contributions of Black Americans. It also serves as a reminder of our ongoing commitment to equality, opportunity, and justice for all.

In light of comments made by the House Speaker last week, my colleagues in the Detroit Caucus and education leaders from the city of Detroit came together yesterday to emphasize the importance of completing the education budget on time. Without a completed budget by July 1, school districts are not able to plan for the upcoming school year and can be forced to make tough decisions without complete knowledge of what funding to expect.

I was honored to receive The K-12 Alliance of Michigan 2026 Champion for Students award this week. I first decided to run for this position on behalf of my students who were constantly being shortchanged by decisions in Lansing. During my time in the legislature, I've always worked to advance policy and budgetary priorities that put our kids first. Receiving this recognition from school leaders who are out in the trenches every day fighting for our kids means so much to me ❤️💪

June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate our LGBTQ+ friends, family, and neighbors. Today and every day, everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, no matter who they are or who they love.
