I stand with Michigan Democratic Leader Ranjeev Puri and the Sikh community.
Leader Puri showed us exactly what true leadership looks like: standing up, speaking out, and refusing to let hate or xenophobia go unanswered.
“Singh” is not a punchline. It is a name carried proudly by millions of Sikhs around the world —people who have served this country, built businesses, strengthened communities, and given so much through a faith rooted in service to others.
When the federal government uses its platform to mock people because of their name, faith, or appearance, we cannot stay silent.
I’m grateful for Leader Puri’s courage and his willingness to speak clearly and proudly about his Sikh identity, his family, and his community. As Michigan’s first Sikh legislative leader, he is showing all of us what it truly means to lead with courage, dignity, conviction, and a willingness to stand up for others.
I stand with Leader Puri and everyone who has been made to feel like they don’t belong.
You belong. You are valued. And you should never be treated as a punchline by your own government.As a proud Sikh-American, my middle name is Singh. My response to the vile post by the Department of Homeland Security (picture in comments).

Today, we remember September 11, 2001, and the lives forever changed by that day.
We remember the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives, and we hold their families, loved ones, and friends in our hearts.
We also remember the brave first responders who ran toward danger when so many others were running away. Firefighters, police officers, EMTs, paramedics, and so many others who answered the call with extraordinary courage and selflessness.
To those who served that day and in the difficult days that followed: thank you. And to the families who lost someone they loved, we remember your sacrifice, too.
Twenty-five years later, we will never forget.
Thank you to Mayor Lori M. Stone and the City of Warren for a beautiful event honoring our fallen heroes and showing gratitude to those who still wear the uniform.
May we continue to honor their memory by caring for one another, standing together in times of hardship, and never forgetting the courage and humanity that emerged in the face of unimaginable tragedy. 🇺🇸

Today, the Michigan Senate passed Senate Bills 1133-1141, moving forward the Senate versions of the nine limbo bills that House Democrats also promptly reintroduced after Speaker Matt Hall failed to present their original legislation to the governor’s desk for signature for nearly two years.
I applaud Michigan Senate Democrats and Senator Kevin Hertel for taking action to get the immense benefits these bills will provide for Michiganders closer to the finish line.
I am committed to helping move forward the Senate version of my legislation, which would deliver immediate financial relief for the workers who dedicate their lives to teaching our children and keeping our communities safe.
For too long, the needs of Michigan’s firefighters, law enforcement officers, public school teachers and paraprofessionals have been cast aside by Republican leadership in the House.
The Speaker spent more than $300,000 in taxpayer dollars to continue his legal crusade to deny public workers this relief. Now, House Republicans will get another chance to do the right thing for Michigan workers — I urge them to put people first this time.

Small businesses are the backbone of our economy —and the people who run them deserve access to affordable healthcare, too.
I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Jason, Roberto, and Nikki at Time Warp, an antique store in St. Clair Shores. Like so many Michiganders, Nikki shared with me that she is currently without healthcare coverage because the cost is simply too high.
That’s not a choice anyone should have to make.
I shared with Nikki the legislation I recently introduced to help address this very issue. House Bill 6274 would make healthcare more affordable and accessible for Michiganders earning between 133% and 200% of the federal poverty level by allowing them to access health benefits at a lower premium.
No one should have to choose between getting the healthcare they need and being able to afford groceries, keep a small business open, or pay their everyday bills.
Nikki’s story is a reminder of why this work matters. I’ll continue fighting to lower the cost of healthcare and expand access to address Michigan’s healthcare affordability crisis.
Every Michigander deserves access to healthcare.

Influencer marketing is a growing billion dollar industry. But one segment of this industry is making millions off of political attacks and political candidate promotions.
Unfortunately, this industry is unregulated and creators don’t have to disclose they’re being paid to promote or attack political candidates or support an issue.
This is happening in both major political parties and this practice needs to be addressed.
I have requested a bill draft to create a law to help improve transparency around this issue and hope to continue doing this work to address this issue —because it’s not going away and you deserve transparency.

Michigan won the latest lawsuit against the USPS!
The U.S. Supreme Court may still issue a decision after September 9, when the deadline for states to respond is due.
That’s also the day most local clerks are willing to accept changes to ballots —and most likely, the envelopes, before they’re printed and delivered to the USPS for delivery to overseas military service members by September 19, and September 24 for all other permanent absentee voters.
I hope that the USPS will do the right thing and deliver ballots as they have normally done in past elections so that voters have the right to free and fair elections.

This Labor Day, we celebrate the people who keep our communities moving and our economy strong.
We honor the workers who show up every day, the union members who stand together, and the labor unions that have fought for generations for better wages, safer workplaces, good benefits, and the dignity every worker deserves.
Organized labor has always been about more than a paycheck. It’s about having a voice at work, having a seat at the table, and making sure working people have a fair shot at building a good life for themselves and their families.
To every worker and every union member: this is your day. We see you. We appreciate you. And we thank you.
There is still work to do, and I’ll continue fighting alongside you everyday —beyond today, for the shared values that make our communities stronger: good-paying jobs, strong schools, affordable communities, safe workplaces, and an economy that works for working families.
Happy Labor Day! ✊

Recently, I joined State Senator Sarah Anthony and community leaders for a panel discussion and to hear from refugees and new Americans who recently became U.S. citizens or are on their path to citizenship.
Their questions, attentiveness, and excitement to learn were truly inspiring. They wanted to know how to connect with their elected officials, contribute to their community, and become more civically engaged.
Seeing their joy, determination, and excitement is a powerful reminder of why this work matters.
I'm grateful for the opportunity to connect, listen, and learn together. 🇺🇸

Congratulations to Live Rite Structured Recovery Corp. on their 9th annual event kicking off National Recovery Month!
I had the opportunity to speak at their Battle of the Bands and 5K event and met several incredible nonprofit organizations serving the southeast Michigan region.
Thanks to the team, staff, volunteers, and Brenda at Live Rite for bringing everyone together for such a meaningful cause! We’re lucky to have your incredible organization in the 13th House District.
Recovery is not a journey anyone should have to walk alone. It was great to see our Roseville Police Department officers and nonprofits like Passenger Recovery: Music & Art participating in the event too! Their presence is a reminder that our nonprofits and local, county, and state agencies are on the front lines, working together, supporting people in recovery, helping families, and providing a lifeline to some of our most vulnerable neighbors.
We are incredibly fortunate to have organizations and community leaders who show up every day with compassion, understanding and hope. Their work changes lives, strengthens families, and makes our communities stronger.
This National Recovery Month, let’s recognize, support and celebrate the people and organizations helping others find a path forward. ❤️
