I loved spending time at the Humane Society of West Michigan today and meeting the incredible staff and volunteers who care for our community’s animals. From rescues to adoptions, their work makes a real difference every day. And yes, I made a new furry friend along the way.

If a pilot is flying in the same sky, they should follow the same safety rules. My Fatigued Pilot Protection Act makes sure cargo pilots get the same rest protections as passenger pilots. Safety shouldn’t depend on who’s on the plane.

Great conversation today with West Michigan labor leaders. From workforce training to fair wages and job site safety, these are the voices shaping our region’s economy. I’ll keep fighting in Congress to stand up for workers and make sure West Michigan jobs stay strong.
