House Republicans were MONTHS late in introducing their budget, throwing Michigan's schools into uncertainty, and THIS is what they have to show for it. Parents and teachers are furious with them as they keep pointing fingers at everyone but the real culprit - themselves. #mileg
"Madam President, half a dozen construction workers came to my office yesterday wanting to talk about Michigan's roads, and I was struck by the great pride with which they talked about the careers that they built, making Michigan's roads smooth and safe for us to travel on.

Speaker Matt Hall and his MI House Republicans want to check your child’s gender before they enter the bathroom. They also want to cut hundreds of millions of dollars from our school funding. I care about students, not this political nonsense. #mileg
Yesterday I toured the Living and Learning Center, which provides job coaching and employment support for adults with disabilities. As Chair of the Disability Caucus, helping people with disabilities find employment is a priority of mine. Thanks for the informative tour! #mileg
Happy Labor Day, Michigan!
👷♂️👩🌾👨🏭👨🚒👨🔧👩🔬🧑✈️👷♂️🧑⚕️👨🏫🧑💻
On Labor Day we celebrate the power of workers and unions. And we honor what that power earned for working Americans in the past, present, and future. 🧵
It's Labor Day, so let’s take a look at the values of Michigan Republicans when it comes to workers.
Here's what the MI House Republicans want to do:
✘👨🔧 Eliminate workforce development, skilled trades apprenticeships, and auto retraining programs....🧵
This Labor Day, it's clear who stands up for working people and who doesn't. House Republicans just passed an anti-worker budget bill that would slash jobs and stretch family finances to the breaking point. House Dems will always stand with workers & retirees. #mileg#laborday
House Republicans should be embarrassed. Their bad budget will hurt families, schools, kids, seniors & communities across the state. Michiganders deserve leaders who can actually get the job done, right.
Yesterday, Republicans rammed a budget through the house that was nowhere near ready for prime time with only an hour’s notice. Michiganders deserve better than an 11th hour rush job.
The House Republican budget would mean:
Hospitals closing
Kids going hungry in school
Unaffordable meds
Police off the streets
Sick moms and babies
Untested sexual assault kits
Polluted water and air
In other words, Republican priorities!

And … Michigan Republicans have introduced a bill to allow your boss to legally fire you if he finds out you had an abortion.
Michiganders voted for reproductive freedom, but Republicans still want to take away our rights.
I won’t let this happen!
This is from a summary of the House GOP's budget proposal. The Gov and Senate Dems want to dedicate funding for sexual assault testing kits and House Rs don't. I guess supporting assault victims and holding perpetrators accountable just isn't important to them. Disgusting. #mileg
I voted NO on Matt Hall's cruel joke of a budget. Now we know why House Republicans blew past the July 1st deadline for getting a budget deal done: they were embarrassed to show their proposal to the public. It's a cruel attack on our people and our values. #mileg
