Yesterday, I had the honor of presenting a tribute to Nancy Jacob in celebration of her 95th birthday, surrounded by her loving extended family in the comfort of her home. A proud Clawson resident for over 50 years, Nancy is a beloved part of our community, and it was a privilege to recognize her for this incredible milestone. I wish her many more years of joy, love, and cherished memories with her wonderful family!

Nancy is still beautiful.
Last week I voted NO on the Michigan Republican House Majority's "Road Funding Plan" for a very simple reason... No funding.

People have asked me why they're trying to make so many cuts to Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, and other critical programs at the federal level. I tell them it's to pay for $4.5 TRILLION of tax cuts FOR THE RICH (yes, including Musk and Trump)!
People don't believe me.
But it's here.
It's OUR MONEY! We have to #resist.

Extending the expiring tax cuts for individuals and large estates would double down on the flaws in the 2017 law by giving the biggest benefits to the wealthy.1 CommentComment on Facebook
I am sooooo proud to have as my representative. Thank you for being a voice for us. #resist
Why did the MAGA majority of the Michigan State House vote to praise Trump's killing off of the Department of Education? Speaker Hall says it's so
1. He can set curricula locally, which we already do, and
2. To break teacher's unions.

Aren't schools supposed to serve CHILDREN?
I would suggest people to start taking notes on what these elected officials are doing and saying, remember it when it's time to vote!
I had such an amazing time today reading to the 2nd graders at Leonard Elementary School in Troy for March is Reading Month! The students were so wonderful and inquisitive!

Securing funding for a cricket field at Boulan Park in Troy has been one of my proudest accomplishments in office. Very soon, our large and growing cricket-playing community will have a field fit for this exciting sport. Can't wait to watch the first match!Troy received $900,000 in Michigan Economic Development Corporation funds to support the Cricket Field at Boulan Park! These funds were secured by Rep. Sharon MacDonell, helping to enhance recreational opportunities for our community. This will be the Detroit Metro Region’s first real game field! Construction began Fall 2024 with anticipated completion of late Spring 2025. Learn more at rec.troymi.gov/parks.

Right now in Lansing, the House Republicans are insisting on making us vote on a resolution to support Trump's CLOSURE of the Department of Education. They are, however, too cowardly to put their votes up on the board to show how they voted because--ya know--they're afraid of the transparency they keep claiming they want.
Call and write your reps at the state and federal level and DEMAND that they start SUPPORTING public education instead of ATTACKING it.

How can they take votes and not post them? Is that optional?? 
Thank you for always supporting public education and for dealing with these stupid games.
Sharon, I know you'll do the right thing and support the board of education! Thank you for standing up to the madness!
Please join me and my special guest Senator Stephanie Chang tomorrow at 2pm for a community conversation in Clawson!
