I send condolences to the loved ones of Lt. Col. Brandon Shah, who was killed in the horrific shooting at Old Dominion University yesterday, and gratitude to the brave ROTC students who acted quickly to prevent further loss of life.

I stand with the ODU community as they reel from this tragedy.

With the House in recess, I spent the week in the District meeting with local government leaders, constituents and educators.

Keep watching for more highlights.

Last week, LWV and co-plaintiffs [including VA & LA Leagues] moved for summary judgment against DHS. Plaintiffs argue DHS has usurped constitutional powers and unlawfully transformed the SAVE Act into a national citizenship data bank. Be informed: www.lwv.org/legal-center... @lwvus.bsky.social

I'm praying for the victims of the shooting at Old Dominion University today, and deeply appreciate the work of our law enforcement officers. I will continue to monitor this closely and encourage all to heed officials' instructions about avoiding the area around Constant Hall.

Praying for Michigan’s Jewish community and grateful for the quick work of first responders and law enforcement during today’s attack. While we wait for more information, one thing is clear: antisemitism anywhere must be confronted and stopped.

Trump admits the first 6 days of war cost about $11 billion (and you KNOW it's more)

PLENTY of $ for that πŸ€‘

Extending ACA benefits costs $30 billion per year.

No $ for that--waaaay too expensive!

Whose fault?

On #IWD2026, we’re reflecting on the incredible power of our local community. Last year, we set out to make history, and together, we did.

We’ve proven that when women lead, we don’t just change the conversationβ€”we change the future.
