How We’re Responding to the Trump Administration
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In response to the latest developments with the war in Iran, Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens issued the following statement:
"Michiganders didn't sign up for another endless war. President Trump dragged America into a war of choice with no clear mission, no strategy, and no exit plan. Now his failed ceasefire has put our service members back in harm's way.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Following the Trump administration's announcement that it will not extend the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) in its current form, initiating the agreement's review process and negotiations over potential changes, Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens released the following statement:
“Yet again, we see this administration abusing power, going way too far in terms of the federal grants-making process. Here in Michigan, we have countless organizations, nonprofits, schools, heck, even sometimes places of worship that are going through the federal grants-making process. “
“They want to say if it doesn’t fit their political purposes, they can stop the federal grant. And it opens up to clawing back money or charging enterprises who have received federal grants from years ago.”
Members of Congress have introduced a resolution, a legislation they say is gonna prevent the politicization of the federal grant process. Joining us live now is Representative Haley Stevens, one of the Members of Congress to introduce the act.
“We’ve seen some continued overreaches from the current administration, particularly out of the Office of Management and Budget. They put together a pretty aggressive, what we call rulemaking, around federal grants that are gonna really impact, what’s really gonna impact Michigan.”
WASHINGTON, D.C. – In response to President Trump cancelling the signing of the bipartisan 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act today, Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens issued the following statement:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Michigan Congresswoman Haley Stevens led 21 Members of Congress in introducing the Protect Local Funding Act, legislation to block the Trump Administration’s politicization of the federal grant process, stand up to Donald Trump’s overreach, and protect federal taxpayer dollars for local communities.
Washington, DC — In response to RFK Jr.'s visit to Michigan this week, Congresswoman Haley Stevens (MI-11) issued the following statement:
“RFK Jr. has failed Michigan. His reckless crusade against evidence-based science has driven measles cases to a 30-year high, slashed lifesaving medical research, and undermined vaccines that protect Michigan families. His record is defined by disregarding safety and promoting conspiracies over public health.
Here at home, Representative Haley Stevens is stepping up her fight to stop an ICE detention facility from being placed in the area.
Earlier this year, the Department of Homeland Security announced that it would be opening a facility in Romulus. Representative Stevens, as well as other local members of Congress, have now sent a letter to DHS calling on it to reverse that decision.
Five Democratic U.S. Representatives from Michigan sent a letter on Thursday to Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin to oppose the development of a planned ICE detention facility in Romulus.
Rep. Haley Stevens of Birmingham led the letter and was joined by Reps. Debbie Dingell of Ann Arbor, Hillary Scholten of Grand Rapids, Kristen McDonald Rivet of Bay City, and Shri Thanedar of Detroit — almost the entire Democratic delegation to the U.S. House from Michigan.
A coalition of five Michigan Democrats are urging the federal government to reverse its plan to turn a warehouse in a Detroit suburb into an immigration detention center.
They sent a June 11 letter to U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, pushing for the agency to “reverse the decision” to convert a Romulus warehouse into a 500-bed federal facility.
