This afternoon, I, alongside my Democratic colleagues, was given an hour to review an 800-page budget...My job as a legislator isn't to come in and green-light bad policy that will harm Michiganders, but to fight for the needs of residents in House District 48 and the state.
House Republicans have had a budget ready since June, and instead of putting it forward with enough time for transparency and debate, they are trying to rush it through now because they're afraid of how much the public will dislike it.

📚✏️ Back-to-School 2025
Back-to-school season should be exciting for families and students. But without a final state budget, schools are left in limbo and have to face tough choices about programs, staffing, and even student meals. That’s unacceptable.
Democrats are ready to work. We’re ready to negotiate. But the reality is there is only one person in the House who has the authority to bring up a budget for a vote, and that is Matt Hall. Completing a balanced and timely budget is the core duty of our work as elected officials.
Our kids only get one shot at a quality education. We need to pass a budget that gives teachers, staff, and students the resources they need to succeed, from classroom tools and mental health support to universal meals and special education, as soon as possible.
I’ll keep fighting in Lansing to make sure we are giving every child the strong start they deserve.

Saturday night was an emotional one for me. We attended a gala to support Garrett's Space, a nonprofit with the mission to create spaces of hope and healing for young people in need. It is named after Garrett, a good friend of our daughter’s who died by suicide. He was a wonderful young man who was struggling and felt isolated in his pain. His parents founded Garrett’s Space, which will soon be a residential facility on acres of beautiful land here in Ann Arbor to try to help others.

Yesterday, we went on a farm tour in Washtenaw County organized by U.S. Rep. Debbie Dingell. We started at HillTop Greenhouse & Farms in Ann Arbor with many Michigan Farm Bureau members where we had a roundtable to hear concerns and answer questions. Workforce/Labor issues and getting the Federal Farm bill done were two of the biggest topics. We then headed to the Gateway Farm in Salem where they grow gorgeous lettuce, herbs, flowers and even figs! The tour ended at Alber Orchard & Cider Mill LLC in Salem. A beautiful, but warm, day to tour farms. A nice bookend to a week that started at the Howell Melon Festival!

It was an honor to be a part of the ribbon-cutting for the brand-new Dexter Senior Center! After years without a permanent home, this new space at 2740 Baker Rd in Dexter will serve as a welcoming hub for older adults and community groups.
This week, the Senior Center is hosting various events to welcome members into the new building.
🏠 August 18–22, 9 am to 3 pm – Community Open House with programs and services
🎊 Friday, August 22nd, 3 to 6 pm – Special celebration with food, raffles, and fun
I’m proud to have supported this project alongside Rep. Debbie Dingell, Senator Sue Shink, and Representative Carrie Rheingans, and grateful to the many community partners who helped make this incredible new space a reality.

So many events the last few days, including a fantastic event this past Thursday night. The Michigan Environmental Council hosted its 27th annual Milliken Award Celebration at the Rogel Ballroom at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. The event brought together advocates, policymakers, and businesses committed to protecting Michigan’s air, water, and the places we love. It also allowed me to meet the night’s special honoree. The beautifully accomplished former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm!
