Hey, I asked UM to issue a statement regarding their advertisement for sharp returns. I’m awaiting for approval. Because HB5178 and HB5179 has not passed yet, people are subjected to paraphernalia and trace amount charges (up to 4 year felony for each syringe or other equipment)! This is happening across the state and sadly, the major cause of syringe litter. As important as it is to keep our communities clean, people need to know the real risks. Here is an alternative for sharps throughout Michigan. Please, State Representative Jimmie Wilson Jr. help us get Joe Tate to prioritize this critical legislation during lame duck. Thanks!
This October, let’s come together to raise awareness for Domestic Violence Awareness Month 💜. SafeHouse Center is hosting powerful local events and displays in our community to honor survivors and promote healing.
Mark your calendars for the How to Support Survivors Workshop on Thursday, October 24th, from 6-7:30 PM. 🕒 Learn trauma-informed practices, gain valuable tools, and get educated on how to support survivors. This is an essential opportunity to make a difference!
Together, we can promote healing, hold space for survivors, and center our actions on ending domestic violence. 💜

October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month! 💼♿
Hello District 32! This month, we're shining a light on the barriers people with disabilities face in the hiring process, especially with the rise of AI technologies. 🤖 While AI can streamline hiring, it can also unintentionally discriminate against individuals with disabilities through predictive algorithms, video interviews, and personality assessments.
Detroit Disability Power (DDP), in partnership with the University of Michigan, has researched these issues and developed resources to help raise awareness and propose solutions. We’re calling on legislators, business owners, HR professionals, and tech developers to address this critical issue and ensure fair employment practices for all. Together, we can make Michigan's job market more inclusive!
Check out the key proposals: • Convene experts to research best practices • Establish auditing & reporting standards for employers • Mandate accommodations guidance for job seekers • Strengthen legal protections for disabled applicants
Learn more and join the conversation! 💬 Let’s work together for equitable hiring practices that give everyone a fair shot.

A Historic Day for Michigan! 🏠🚜
Hi District 32, join me and my team in wishing congratulations to Representative Dievendorf for passing House Bill 4924, the Uniform Partition of Heirs Property Act! This bill closes a critical gap in estate law, helping to protect small family farms and homes, especially in Black and Brown communities.
Since 1910, 90% of Black farms have disappeared due to the lack of a legal process for passing property to heirs without a will. Thanks to this legislation, property owners can now keep their land in the family, building equity and stopping the cycle of loss.
I am proud to have been a cosponsor of this game-changing step towards justice, equity, and repairing generational harm. With unanimous support from the Senate the Partition of Heirs Property Act is off to the Governor’s desk! 💪🏾
