This week, I was proud and deeply honored to lead the Michigan House of Representatives in adopting a resolution honoring Black History Month.
Standing with my colleagues to deliver this speech was a moment of immense pride. We gathered to honor the rich history, vibrant culture, and immeasurable contributions of Black people to the state of Michigan and this nation.

I had a wonderful time welcoming Mayor-elect Mary Sheffield to Lansing today, and had the honor of introducing her at The Detroit Caucus and the Michigan Legislative Black Caucus reception.
I am excited to work with my Mayor 😊❤on the road ahead to make life better for Detroiters. She will be a great leader and partner for the State of Michigan.
