💚🌿 Introducing the John Sinclair Act 🌿💚
I’m proud to introduce the John Sinclair Act, legislation to remove cannabis from Michigan’s Controlled Substances List. This bill is about justice, fairness, and aligning our laws with the progress we’ve already made on cannabis reform. 🚫⚖️
Outdated scheduling continues to create confusion and unfair penalties, as seen in cases like People v. Kejbou and People v. Soto. By descheduling cannabis, we can end these contradictions and ensure no one is punished for legal cannabis-related activities.
Named after activist John Sinclair, this act honors his fight for reform and aims to end systemic inequalities that disproportionately affect communities of color and low-income individuals. It’s time to bring clarity and justice to Michigan’s cannabis laws. ✊

💙🏛️ Fighting for Domestic Violence Survivors 🏛️💙
I’m proud to partner with State Representative Graham Filler (R-Duplain Township) on a bipartisan bill package to support and protect domestic violence survivors and their families across Michigan. These bills tackle gaps in our legal system, expand protections through personal protection orders, and safeguard survivor rights in the workplace, ensuring access to unemployment benefits and earned sick time.
Domestic violence survivors deserve respect, protection, and a system that supports them not creates barriers. Together, we’re standing up for a safer and stronger Michigan. 💪💜 #SupportSurvivors #BipartisanLeadership #Domestic

Recently I found out that he was cheating on me and had a girlfriend after seeing the text and pictures,I became numb and cried due to I’ve only been a good wife to him despite everything I listened to every insult and fight,I never gave up and he still filed for a divorce after several abuse and wanted to take over the kids,thanks to this hacker who helped me extract enough information from his device,someone on here share a link to the hacker who helped me to clone his cell phone without physically touching it,all I did was send his phone number to him through a remote link sent to my email then I was able to access all of his text,emails,facebook and Instagram chat real-time call listening and his long deleted messages as if the phone was physically with me Perhaps you’re in a similar situation and you need help,you can get in touch with him on Instagram www.instagram.com/renaldtech_services?igsh=anFqNHBrcTN0YWll

……. Blinks….. uhhhh Xylazine test strips are still illegal across the state and we are awaiting 5178 and 5179 to decrim them and possession- as well as provide health services. Also, banning a substance only criminalizes it more. We have more and more Xylazine than ever.
Our children can’t even read with 3rd grade Mstep scores as all time low, but sure let’s feed them birth control at school and teach them gender ideology as priority with bills such as 6068
