"When a man of peace is killed by a man of war, he gives a light. You do not have to walk in darkness. If you will have the courage for love, you may walk in light. It will be the light of those who have suffered for peace. It will be your light." -- by Wendell Berry
On this Patriot's Day, thank you.

Every Labor Day, I remember the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. I learned about the fire when I worked at New York University and learned the Factory building still stood — about a minute’s walk from my office. The factory’s doors were locked on the upper floors to prevent the workers from leaving on breaks; when the fire started, workers were trapped and unable to evacuate. 146 people died in what remains one of the deadliest industrial catastrophes in U.S. history.
What came of this tragedy was a fight and legislation for workers rights.
On this Labor Day, I’m thankful for unions and the worker protections and benefits they provide. As a vested member of AFL-CIO and AFT, I appreciate what the union has given to me. As a legislator, I work to give back.

Today is September 1, 2026, and heat indexes are expected to be in the upper 90s or over 100 degrees. I'm sharing this earlier post that has information you need about extreme heat, cooling centers, and what to look out for possible heat-induced illness. PLEASE KEEP PETS INSIDE, DO NOT LEAVE BABIES OR CHILDREN (or anyone) IN CARS (a mid 70's temp can easily rise to 100 degrees in a short time), STAY HYDRATED. Please take care of you and yours.
PLEASE NOTE: until Labor Day, the correct hours for the Harper Woods Public Library are M-W: 12-8 and Th-F: 10-5. Grosse Pointe Public Library will be open this Sunday from 1:00 - 5:00 p.m.

Republicans working hard to disenfranchise Democrat voters in Michigan (mentioned further down in the story). Of course, many Republicans will also not have their mail-in ballots counted, but more Democrats mail their ballots the idea is to break the vote. Considering that the DOJ sent their "poll watchers" to my district during the primary, I'm very well aware of their scheme to disenfranchise the voters of State House District 10.

Supreme Court approves of Trump having directed the U.S. Post Office to mail ballots of only people on an “approved list”. Here’s your rigged election — thanks to our Republican POTUS and legislators who support him.

Republican ideal of Senate leadership and workforce development: put a shop class in every high school. Seriously? Is that all ya got? That’s his plan for Congress? If he wants to get this done, he needs to talk with state legislators — and get them to restore that almost $2 billion they moved out of the education budget.

I apologize for missing our Community Conversation at the Harper Woods Public Library on July 20. There was some staff turnover in my office in June/July and our meeting somehow missed getting on my calendar.
