Michiganders shouldn’t have to breathe Canada’s negligence. YEAR AFTER YEAR the smoke crosses the border while Canada does nothing. Stop exporting your smoke into our skies. Enough is enough!

If Canada will not manage its forests to prevent these fires, the United States will look elsewhere, and act on our own, to protect our people.

FINAL WARNING TO CANADA: Manage your forests to prevent these fires. American lungs are paying the price for Canadian inaction, year after year.

This is the third consecutive year we have had to write to Canadian officials about a crisis that Canada has the tools to prevent and has chosen not to.

Public servants and our government are stewards of taxpayer dollars, not owners of it.

Americans expect taxpayer money to be spent responsibly, transparently, and in the public interest.

This is not merely an accusation of financial misconduct — it is an indictment of an entire governing philosophy.

Our constituents are breathing the consequences of this failure right now, and they deserve better than to be told, again, that it will be handled.

Our hospitals are once again treating children, dialysis patients and older residents for the effects of smoke that did not originate anywhere near them.

I was honored to join Deputy Secretary Vaden today in meeting with farmers across Michigan's 5th District to discuss how we can provide them with the necessary tools to maintain the world’s safest and most abundant food supply.

Farmers work tirelessly every day, and policies like those included in the Working Families Tax Cuts and this year's Farm Bill will support their efforts to put affordable food on the tables of hardworking Michigan families.

With this bill signed into law, we help ensure that the Center’s dedicated staff can continue working to strengthen our fisheries and Great Lakes for future generations.

The additional defense funding is necessary to support our troops and supply them with the munitions and anything else they need to fight, win and return home safely.

We’re devastated by the tragedy of what happened, but we want you to know that we stand behind you and your service.

One of the things that the secretary has been very adamant about, that I think has been a good thing, is having a standardized framework within the VA.

The Great Lakes support a robust fishing industry that helps generate billions of dollars in economic activity across the region. It's essential that the Great Lakes Science Center continues to have the resources it needs to protect the…

If you’re a 100% rated veteran and your family is covered under your disability rating as well for your medical benefits, you know, VA wasn’t originally designed for pediatric care, for example.

By reducing burdensome regulatory barriers and allowing banks to freely deploy funding, we can increase housing supply and lower costs for hardworking Michigan families."
