“Michigan school districts and communities are best-equipped to decide policies for their own employees, and they should be empowered to make their own decisions, without a top-down approach from President Biden telling them how to do everything,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. “I have visited Head Start classrooms in Michigan, and I know the teachers and staff work hard to care for the children. It would be difficult for the community if they had to quit their jobs because of President Biden’s policies.”

“It is inspiring to see these Michigan students carry the banner of hope for unborn children and the right to life,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. “This year’s March for Life once again reaffirms the commitment of millions of Americans to stand up for life and support unborn children and their mothers through pregnancy resource centers, adoption, and strong families. The unborn are the most vulnerable people in our society and each one is full of incredible potential to make our world a better place.”

"I am proud to support these incredible members of the Greatest Generation and honor their courage and service," said Congressman Moolenaar. "The bravery of the Ghost Army helped win World War II and secure a better future for generations to come."

"Michigan families are being hurt by rising energy costs and I appreciated the opportunity to meet with a local energy provider today to discuss how policies from the Biden Administration are affecting costs,” said Moolenaar. “Propane is a vital energy source for many homeowners in Michigan, and if the Biden Administration’s anti-pipeline policies cause Line 5 to be shutdown, that could seriously raise costs on Michigan families. I hope Line 5 tunnel construction will be expedited and allowed to move forward, because that is the safest solution to meeting our state’s energy needs.”

“As Michigan families and seniors continue to be hurt by inflation and rising prices, Democrats in Washington continue to ignore the crisis. Instead of addressing the rising cost of living, every House Democrat voted today to take the money Michigan families pay in taxes and use some of it to fund their own political campaigns in November. They also voted to abolish voter ID requirements even though the American people overwhelmingly support voter ID. Overall, the bill the Democrats passed today will harm election integrity and make it easier for people to break the law,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

“Americans should have the right to decide whether or not they want to get the COVID-19 vaccine and today’s ruling is a massive victory. The Court rightfully determined that the Biden Administration went too far in trying to burden private businesses and force the vaccine on their employees,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

"Today's inflation numbers confirm what we are seeing in Michigan - rising prices are hurting Michigan’s seniors and families as their money does not go as far as it used to,” said Congressman John Moolenaar. "Before the pandemic we had record levels of employment, rising wages, and low inflation. Now, in his first year in office, President Biden has discouraged energy development, driven up gas prices, paid more money for people not to work, and allowed the backlog at our nation’s ports to hit record highs. Biden’s policies are not working.”

"Americans should have the right to decide if they want to take the COVID-19 vaccine and I believe President Biden implementing his mandate through executive rule is unconstitutional. If the mandate is upheld, Michigan businesses will face higher costs for employees and hard-to-find tests, and those costs will be passed on to Michigan families and seniors. I have introduced a bill to block this mandate and I will continue to fight for that legislation in Congress until the mandate is ended," said Congressman John Moolenaar.
