It’s official, Michigan. I’m running to be your next United States senator.
Michiganders are the hardest working people I know. We built this country and the middle class, and I’m running to have their backs in Washington. Let’s get to work.

UPDATE: Spoke to hospital exec.
They have lost $39M in a month.
Some in their group have 1-2 months before they will close doors.
We shouldn’t get to the point of hospital shutdowns to compel fed govt to secure the medical & fiscal solvency of this nation.

I just recorded an interview with @wjrradio where things got pretty heated and the male radio host repeatedly said he was offended because I unapologetically stated that the decision to bear a child is a woman’s choice and a woman’s choice only. Full stop.

Donald Trump came to Detroit today and insulted our city’s rebound and resolve.
Little does he know Detroit is a comeback city & Michiganders are beyond tired of his constant lies and efforts to divide us. He has no place back in the White House.

This hateful poster is appalling and upsetting. I encourage all my colleagues to condemn bigotry of this kind and not stay silent. Fear mongering and bigotry especially the kind that plays off a national tragedy has no place in American civil society.
This poster is in your Capitol on a booth sponsored by @WVGOP “When someone shows you who they are, believe them”

Why is this happening? Because we are in state of emergency and all non-elective surgeries are canceled so revenue has plummeted overnight. Insurance companies still raking it in.

This is shameful Mr. President. Insinuating that John Dingell, a loving catholic, WWII hero, now rests in hell.
How dare you?
I have no words for the pain you are causing my dear friend Debbie Dingell and the people of Michigan right now.
Trump is now mocking Rep. Debbie Dingell. "Debbie Dingell, that's a real beauty," Trump says. "I gave them the A treatment," he says, of the family after Rep. John Dingell died. Says Dingell told him her husband would be looking down happy. "Maybe he's looking up," Trump says.

Funny, I JUST left a conversation with a Michigan business owner who said instead of expanding jobs in our community he has had to move jobs oversees because of YOUR failing trade war.
His business needs certainty but all he is getting is chaos.
