115th Congress

“Michigan farmers work tirelessly to feed our communities and people around the world. This legislation will help the 15,000 farmers in my district plan for the future, especially when they face natural disasters. Michigan family farmers are the best in the world and this legislation will help them compete for years to come."

“Congratulations to the Asch family on this tremendous honor for Colonel Asch. He was a patriot who never forgot where he was from and he continued to support Beaverton and Gladwin County throughout his life. This special honor will help his legacy be remembered for generations to come.”

“It was a privilege to represent the residents of the Fourth District at the National Cathedral on this national day of mourning and to pay tribute to President Bush for his lifetime of service to our country. Today’s ceremony was a beautiful celebration of the gracious and generous man who led our nation through a challenging period in world history. All of the speakers made wonderful remarks and the president’s son gave a moving speech that undoubtedly made his father very proud. George H.W. Bush was a courageous patriot and history will remember him well.”

"President Bush was a patriot. He was the right man at the right moment in history and we give thanks for his steadfast service to our nation. We raise the Bush family up in our prayers and we are comforted knowing that he is in a better place, reunited with his daughter Robin and his wife Barbara."

"My colleagues and I called for the Army Corps to include this crucial funding for new Soo Locks construction in the 2019 work plan. Today's announcement is real progress and it means design work will begin on a new, second Lock. We only have one lock right now and it's 50 years old, so starting this process sooner is vital to ensuring we have a second lock to support the millions of American jobs that depend on the iron ore that goes through the Soo each year.

“Colonel Asch was an American hero and it has been wonderful to lead this special effort honoring him as a proud son of Beaverton,” said Congressman Moolenaar. “He bravely flew missions during World War II, helped develop post-war civilian flight practices, and never forgot where he was from, funding a scholarship at CMU for Gladwin County residents. I am grateful to Senator Stabenow and Senator Peters for their support of this legislation honoring Colonel Asch.”

"As a Michigan native, Lindsay understands the needs of the Fourth District and she knows how to get things done in Washington. She is a terrific leader who will help spearhead the work I am doing to protect the Great Lakes, support Michigan agriculture, and create good-paying job opportunities in mid and northern Michigan," said Moolenaar.
