Our community deserves a Representative who actually knows how much groceries cost — and why that cost matters for families. Instead, #MI13 has an out-of-touch multimillionaire who has more in common with Trump & Elon than any of us. I'm running to replace him. Are you with me?

Last week, we introduced bicameral and bipartisan legislation alongside State Sen. Chang, State Rep. Sharon MacDonell, and others to license hyperbaric chamber facilities across Michigan. If passed Michigan would be the 1st state in the country to do so. freep.com/story/news/loc…

Together we will fight to get corporate money out of our politics and return the power to where it belongs: with the people 💙 We are building the BIGGEST & BADDEST COALITION IN THE COUNTRY 🫡 Help Us Take Our Seat Back & Join Our Movement TODAY 🙌🏾 secure.actblue.com/donate/mckinne…

Proud to announce the endorsement of @WorkingFamilies Party 🥳 Our campaign has always been by the people, for the people, and we are so proud to have WFP join our movement 🎉

I will continue that work here in Lansing, as well as in DC, to bring resources home to the people who need it the most. No matter where you live, I will always fight for you 💙 #AlwaysWithThePeople #HappyBlackHistoryMonth #StandingOnTheShouldersOfGiants

Nobody brought home resources to each & every community like she did. It’s a feat I strive to work towards everyday. As the only Detroiter on House Appropriations these past 2 terms, I've had the honor of bringing home $$$ to the city of Detroit and EVERY surrounding community.

I was recently interviewed at the Capitol Rotunda about who I admire in my legislative journey. I spoke about the legacy of the late great Honorable Congresswoman Carolyn Cheeks-Kilpatrick. She was known to me as a "True Appropriater."

Let me be clear: there should be no war with Iran. And we need a Democratic Party that doesn’t just take issue with the procedure of starting a war, but is truly committed to ending all forever wars.

We know that Detroit’s children, children in neighborhoods like ours, will be sent to fight this war. We’re tired of seeing families broken and our tax $ wasted just to further enrich the billionaire class profiting on war. Our tax $ must be invested in our communities instead.

So proud of Indivisible Downriver/Western Wayne County, Michigan United, and so many others for organizing this event with little to no planning time. We will always stand with the people and fight back against injustice 🙏🏾 #AlwaysWithThePeople

Yesterday, I was invited to speak at the No ICE Detention Facility Protest in Romulus 📣 Over 500 people came out in the winter cold to make their voices heard and say NO TO ICE 💙

From Detroit to Downriver and beyond, we say ICE OUT of our community! Join us TONIGHT at Romulus City Hall at 5.30 to say NO to ICE's expansion: mobilize.us/downriverunite…

This isn't about cutting waste, fraud, and abuse. This is about eliminating resources from Michiganders who need it the most. I can think of many things where $340M could go towards like helping bring down costs for everyday working families.

Outside of healthcare, the primary change would be to the state's food assistance program and Michigan residents would have to pay $340M more for administrative costs, etc.

Watch and listen to one of the questions I asked the House Fiscal Agency about the detrimental impacts of HR 1 aka the "One Big Ugly Bill" to Michigan taxpayers.

I am fighting everyday to ensure working families across our state are able to live with dignity and afford life's basic necessities including healthcare, housing, food, utilities, childcare, etc. You can read more here: michiganadvance.com/2026/02/18/fis…

Good morning everyone, hope all is well. We are projecting major budget shortfalls here in Michigan because of H.R. 1 aka the "One Big Ugly Bill" that DC Republicans passed into law last year.

Our Formerly Incarcerated TownHall is TONIGHT 5pm-8pm at the Horatio Williams Center (1010 Antietam Ave, Detroit, MI 48207). There will be free food, opportunities for healing, fellowship, & dialogue about how the criminal justice system has broken up families just like mine.
