"Protection for the Great Lakes is a top priority for Michigan residents and as our state's only member of the House Appropriations Committee I successfully worked to make sure it was included in today's legislation.

“ICE has done important work on the opioid crisis, seizing thousands of pounds of fentanyl and heroin. It has arrested nearly 2,000 human traffickers, stopping those who victimize women and children in modern-day slavery.

“Judge Brett Kavanaugh has a long record of serving our judicial system. The Senate should review his qualifications and determine if he will uphold the Constitution and be a rule of law justice who is right for this seat on the Supreme Court.
