Team Slotkin is hiring! We’re looking for a District Special Assistant, as well as a Field Representative for Livingston and Oakland Counties. If you or someone you know might be interested, check out the descriptions below or visit https://t.co/uqWJ2LVgYh https://t.co/gJWyVObZCB
Started the morning with coffee with supporters and our first of many canvas launches with @StopBigMoney @Tiffany_Muller. #GOTV is on in #MI07. Have you been procrastinating? Sign up for a shift! ➡️ https://t.co/f30VStwFlO https://t.co/dR8t1O6OTp
Thank you to @Liz_Cheney for joining me tonight for an evening of patriotism and bipartisanship, and to the 600 people who packed into the East Lansing High School gym. Our country is stronger when we work together.
Our country is going through something right now, but we can get through it as long as we have two things: engaged citizens and principled leaders. https://t.co/PDeQkjhtGg

The next video in our “Bipartisanship in Action” comes from Holly Township Supervisor George Kullis. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished for the area by working together. https://t.co/f1SGa9ubum
In Congress, we passed a bill to allow Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices to lower the cost of drugs, cap the price that seniors for their drugs, and cap the price of insulin for Medicare recipients. @barrettbrigade1 said he would have voted no.#MI07

The conversation in the fall is: do you believe in the Roe v. Wade standard, or do you believe in the 1931 ban on abortion. @barrettbrigade1 has bragged about his dangerous position of a 100% ban on all abortions, without exceptions. #MI07
These institutions both offer comprehensive cybersecurity programs and certifications for young people, so they can fill the nearly 11,000 open cybersecurity jobs here in Michigan and nearly 600,000 openings nationwide, and secure well-paying jobs that fulfill a crucial mission.
Today, our local organizations like K-12 schools and small businesses are constantly facing cyber threats, and to protect ourselves we need a new generation of talent that grew up using tech. That’s why Director Inglis and I spent the morning with @WilsonTalentCtr & @LCCStars.
Cybersecurity is no longer just some tech issue, it has a real impact on the lives of regular Michiganders. That’s why I invited @ncdinglis to our district: to connect the work on cyber in Washington to where the rubber meets the road in Michigan. https://t.co/oavZkYhqLD
5/ And it was particularly poignant to be having this visit on the same day that the CHIPS Act was signed into law. Military vehicles need the same kind of microchips as the cars and trucks we make in Michigan. https://t.co/HDMn1k5Ipl
Investigators now believe the spill was largely contained at the Wixom Wastewater Treatment plant, & far less of the chemical spilled out than they previously thought. For now, the no-contact order remains in place, so continue to keep people, pets, & plants away from the water.
The state has been aggressively testing the water for hexavalent chromium at dozens of sites throughout the watershed, and right now all of those samples are coming back below the limits to protect both human health and aquatic life.
There’s a lot of frustration around what happened, & it’s well-deserved. We need to know what steps need to be taken at every level – local, state, & federal – to ensure this doesn’t happen again, & that we hold the offenders accountable. Because next time we may not be so lucky.
@MichiganEGLE has issued multiple violations against Tribar, the company responsible for this spill, and criminal investigations are continuing, as we’re seeing more and more evidence this may have been an intentional act.
I’m happy to report that it does appear the worst case scenario has been averted with the toxic chemical spill in the Huron River. Here’s what we know right now: https://t.co/PLyB1ceAFN

As Michiganders, compromise is in our DNA. It’s never been more important to work together, across party lines, to find real solutions to the challenges we’re facing, whether it’s the rising cost of living or a broken immigration system. 2/2
Always a pleasure to start the day with a @LansingChamber breakfast business roundtable. Special thanks to my colleague & friend @RepPeterMeijer for joining us yesterday to talk about our bipartisan work in the @ProblemSolversCaucus. 1/2 QT @downtownlansing: Thank you @LansingChamber for hosting today’s Roundtable Discussion with @RepSlotkin and @RepMeijer.

If tonight’s news is true, Michigan’s 1931 state law banning abortion would snap back into effect, making any abortion illegal in our state — even if the mom will die, of if she was raped by a family member. No exceptions. 1/2
My poor mother is turning over in her grave. The House has already voted to codify Roe — let all Senators be on record on this one in an up or down vote. 2/2
We were able to collect signatures in each of the 7 counties in the new district – even from our tiny sliver of 200 folks in Genesee county! THANK YOU to everyone who spent your nights and weekends to help us get here. Onward to November!
It’s official – Team Slotkin is on the ballot! Today, we turned in 2,000 petition signatures – the maximum number possible! Over 10 weeks, 300 volunteers collected almost 5,000 (!!!) total signatures. https://t.co/0lMZgbkGyI

We started friend-raisers after folks asked me how they could get their networks involved in my campaign. In Michigan’s new 7th district (Ingham, Livingston, Shiawassee, Eaton, Clinton, and small portions of Oakland and Genessee) and want to host a friend-raiser of your own?
Thanks to everyone who joined me in South Lyon yesterday for a #TeamSlotkin Friend-raiser! It was great to chat one-on-one with some of our local elected officials & hear about the issues folks are talking about in our neighborhoods—especially the need to fix South Lyons’s roads. https://t.co/QigfkCo4WC

American businesses like Magna in Michigan’s 8th have done incredible work to adapt & meet the health needs of our country in this crisis. It’s up to us to make sure that PPE being produced here at home is being put to good use.
As COVID cases surge & folks struggle to stay protected, we have American-made masks sitting in warehouses with nowhere to go. It’s crazy - and it’s why @RepRimRyan and I called for high quality, US-made masks to be sent to every American who wants one. https://t.co/Ke5UfDLSUq

But while an apparent mountain of evidence allows the parents in this case to be charged, there’s actually nothing in Michigan or federal law that holds parents accountable for aiding their child in committing a crime. 3/8
My bill is a serious effort to address a safety issue that is taking American lives. This goes for the shooter in Oxford, as well as the thousands of instances where kids have stolen guns for crime or have accidentally harmed or killed others with a family member’s gun. 4/8
Ensuring that firearms are properly stored, and not left to fall into the hands of those who could use them for violence or crime, is essential. 5/8
I come from a gun-owning family, and I carried a Glock and an M4 on my three tours in Iraq with the CIA. There are millions of responsible gun owners in Michigan, including people I love, like my dad. 6/8
But we just need to do more: no American community should have to go through what Oxford is going through. The parents of the killer there played a devastating role in the lives of these four young Michiganders and thousands more in our community. 7/8
Responsibility is at the heart of what it means to be American, and they need to be held to account. 8/8
Over the past two weeks of church services, vigils and funerals, and visits with parents, teachers, and law enforcement in Oxford, one thing is clear: everyone just wants to keep our kids safe. 2/8
I’m introducing the Safe Guns, Save Kids Act to require gun owners to safely store their firearms when children live with them, and hold them accountable with up to five years in prison if a child uses their gun to hurt others or commit a crime. 1/8 https://t.co/zDxFZBL3jz
