Washington, DC – Today, Congresswoman Haley Stevens (D-MI) and Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) introduced a bipartisan, bicameral resolution to designate September 17th as National Physician Suicide Awareness Day.

"Unions didn’t just build the middle class. Unions didn’t just sustain the middle class. Unions are the middle class. I saw what UAW members sacrificed to keep the Big Three in business while serving in the U.S. Auto Rescue. Automakers recovered to make record profits, but workers’ wages are still stagnant. That’s not right. To ensure a just transition to the green economy and American competitiveness for generations to come, it is critical workers get dealt in as the U.S. transitions to EVs. Workers deserve their fair share."

“Social Security terminated my Medicare insurance and I was unable to convince them to turn it back on even after they admitted it was a clerical issue. I am a former cancer patient with multiple health issues – requiring multiple surgeries and appointments. No one would see me without my Medicare. After two months of futile attempts to solve [this matter] on my own, I contacted Haley Stevens’ office. The caseworker was kind, patient and understanding. They were able to get to the root of the problem and have my insurance reinstated. I am so grateful for their assistance.

“I cannot begin to express how indebted we are to the help we received from Congresswoman Stevens’ office. When my dear friend was being evicted from his rehab facility after being housed for eleven months, Ms. Stevens’ office worked diligently to successfully help Dan get his disability payments. This enabled us to move him into a safer facility. She cared for him, as a high-risk adult, and ensured us that she would be a never-ending advocate. We extend our heartfelt gratitude!” - Melissa, West Bloomfield
How I Can Help:
“The Office of Congresswoman Haley Stevens was able to assist in resolving a last-minute passport issue, and I am not understating that this was a life-altering rescue for my wife and I. Haley Stevens’ staff was prompt in responding both to my voice-mail and e-mail, quick to understand the urgency of my situation, knowledgeable about the passport process, and had resources to contact the State Department passport agencies directly (which I found the average citizen is unable to do). I would like to commend he passport caseworker in particular for his compassionate professionalism.
