VP Harris Fails Michigan Women and Families

July 17, 2024

“Vice President Harris’s policies have failed Michigan women and families by causing higher prices for food, raising the cost of living, and making it harder for families to make ends meet. She was appointed by President Biden to secure our border and since then, millions of people have illegally crossed the border. She also helped cover up President Biden’s declining health, and Michigan reporters should be asking her what she knew about his health and when she knew it,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

Press Release

“President Biden’s failed policies have caused inflation to skyrocket over the last three years and Michigan families feel the pain every time they go to the grocery store. They are also increasingly concerned that the president’s health makes him unfit for office. I hope Michigan reporters will ask the President directly if he has the capacity to serve as the leader of the free world and make crucial decisions about the safety of our servicemembers and national security,” said Congressman John Moolenaar.

Moolenaar Votes to Protect American Elections

July 10, 2024

Press Release

“Voting is a fundamental right for American citizens to determine who will represent them in government and lead their communities. Unfortunately, a loophole allows for non-citizens to register to vote in federal elections simply by claiming they are U.S. citizens. This common-sense legislation closes the loophole and requires proof of citizenship to register to vote. I applaud the House for passing this important bill, and the Senate should consider it immediately,” said Moolenaar.

Press Release

“Michigan farmers work hard to provide the food we rely on every day. The Department of Labor has been raising labor costs on them for years and made it difficult for them to continue operating. I have met with fifth and sixth-generation farmers who worry that unless something changes, they will be the last ones in their families to farm. Passage of my legislation in the committee’s bill today is a step toward providing relief for Michigan farmers,” said Moolenaar.

Moolenaar: Michigan Families Struggle to Pay for Groceries While FLOTUS Talks Nutrition

July 3, 2024

Press Release

“Michigan parents’ top priority is putting food on the table for their children, and sadly, that job is harder due to higher food costs caused by President Biden’s failed policies. For affordable and nutritious food, we must support family farms here in Michigan, but the Biden administration has made it more difficult for them to grow and harvest the food we need. Finally, the Senate Agriculture Committee, which is led by Democrats, should pass a Farm Bill that supports our farmers,” said Congressman John Moolenaar, who represents Middleville in the House of Representatives.

“American tax dollars should never be used to further the Chinese Communist Party’s hopes to dominate key technologies at our expense. That’s why I am proud to co-lead the Decoupling from Foreign Adversarial Battery Dependence Act which would stop the Department of Homeland Security from using American taxpayer dollars to purchase Gotion, CATL, or other Chinese batteries. Our military has already banned these batteries and DHS should do the same,” said Moolenaar.
