- It’s never too late to reconnect with your dreams. If you’re looking for opportunity, signing up for a tuition-free education is simple: 1. Visit Michigan.gov/reconnect 2. Find a participating community college or skills center. 3. Start learning and earning!
00:00For high school grads, we’ve got you too. The Michigan Guarantee means you can go to community college tuition-free after graduation, saving you and your parents money while you build a pathway towards a good paying job. - 🚨 Big news, Michigan! We’re erasing over $74 million in medical debt for over 72,000 Michiganders in the second round of medical debt forgiveness. Our partnership with @unduemeddebt means fewer Michigan families have to choose between buying groceries or paying medical bills.
- No one person had a bigger influence on me than my dad. I think of him every day and this Father’s Day, I miss him even more. I am wishing a Happy Father’s Day to every Michigander celebrating and reflecting today.
- Happy Juneteenth, Michigan! However you choose to celebrate or recognize the day, let’s all take time to honor those who paved the way for progress, and recommit ourselves to building a more just, equitable Michigan and nation.
00:00 - I commend the efforts of Attorney General Nessel, Romulus Mayor McCraight, and our state and federal lawmakers for putting a stop to this facility.The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency has decided to abandon its plans to convert the Romulus warehouse into an immigration detention center and instead will sell the facility.

- Right now, we face a housing shortage that is driving up costs and keeping families from their American Dream. It's time for us to cut red tape, streamline zoning, and get shovels hitting dirt so we can build more homes and make housing affordable.
- We're fixing the damn roads, bringing jobs home, investing in our kids, and working to lower costs for working families. We're not done yet. We'll keep delivering results and building opportunity for every Michigander. I’m all gas, no brakes until my last day in office.
GIF - We got it done! Thank you to our partners at @MichiganDOT, @waynecountymi, and all the hard working men and women who delivered for our state. Let’s keep working together to fix bridges and roads all across Michigan.
- Congratulations to Michigan’s very own Megan Keller & Shiann Darkangelo who both received recognition at last night’s PWHL Awards. Megan Keller secured PWHL Defender of the Year while Shiann was one of four Impact Award recipients. Michigan is so proud of Megan and Shiann!

- I proposed a plan during my State of the State to lower housing costs . The plan would unlock a new, state-level affordable housing tax credit, cut red tape, and streamline zoning. Let’s build more homes and drive costs down so every Michigander can find a place to call home.
- Every family knows the feeling of having tough conversations about finances. That's why we've stayed focused on making a difference for your family: lowering child care costs, making school meals free, and cutting over $1 billion in taxes for our seniors and working families.
