It’s a late night at the Capitol for our Senators. (They have just adjourned until 12:30 a.m.) I’m thankful my Senator, Senator Kevin Hertel, stays to do the good work his constituents elected him to do. #District12 Michigan Senate Democrats #GetTheWorkDone ... See MoreSee Less

Survivors of human trafficking need our support, and Michigan House Democrats worked to deliver it. We passed legislation to expand expungement eligibility for survivors and hold perpetrators accountable, making Michigan a safer state. ... See MoreSee Less

Rather than vote to protect kids from sextortion, Republicans decided not to do the job they were elected to do, they have closed up shop and gone home. All because the Dems want to protect working people. (Here are their empty seats.) ... See MoreSee Less

That was not the way the local news spun it last night. Made it all out to be the Dems holding up reforms and protections.

Yesterday, the legislature took a major step forward for Michigan workers and families. We passed bills to improve unemployment benefits — this is 20+ years overdue. These changes will give Michiganders the breathing room they need during tough times. ... See MoreSee Less

A letter from me about the news of a human trafficking ring bust in District 11.

Here is the letter’s text:

Dear Friends, neighbors, and all members of House District 11,

Today, authorities announced arrests in a long-running investigation into an international sex trafficking operation. Unfortunately, one of the establishments alleged to be involved and raided is a massage parlor located in our District.

I am both saddened and infuriated by such heinous crimes as human trafficking. The exploitation of vulnerable individuals is a vile act that has no place in our society. My heart goes out to the victims and their families who have suffered unimaginable trauma.

This disturbing incident underscores the urgent need for comprehensive legislation to combat human trafficking. I am thankful to tell you that Democrats in the State House have been taking action crafting important legislation addressing such crimes as these – holding perpetrators accountable and ensuring justice for victims and all affected. We anticipate this package of bills coming to the House floor for votes before year’s end.

Thanks are owed to St. Clair Shores Police for their part in these investigations and arrests. As we all move into the new year and a new legislature, let’s remain vigilant and work together to eradicate the scourge of human trafficking in our communities.

Please do not hesitate to reach out to me — or any of your government representatives or law enforcement — for help or assistance or resources if you or someone you know may be living in a dangerous situation.

With gratitude,

Veronica Paiz
