President Trump delivered historic tax relief for working families. We amplified it right here in Michigan with no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and no tax on Social Security. These are the real numbers: Around 300,000 MI tipped workers will save $1,500 in overall taxes Around 500,000 MI overtime workers will save $2,000 in overall taxes Around 40,000 MI seniors will save $500 in state taxes Thank you President Trump and the Republicans in Congress for leading the way!

President Trump's tax cuts are delivering: No tax on tips • No tax on overtime • No tax on Social Security. 💰 Making a HUGE difference for Americans across the country! 🇺🇸

Last week, we passed a plan to protect children from abuse and help Michigan families. Thank you @ParisHilton for sharing your story and leading on this all across the country, and thank you @RepCavitt for bringing this plan to the House. Michigan’s children need protection, and we took a strong step this week to keep them safe.   The Humane & Ethical Adolescent Transportation plan is important to safeguard our children and make sure they get the best care possible. We will never stop fighting for our children and making sure they grow up safe and protected. I’m glad we were able to get this done together!

Inspired by @repmatthall's HEAT plan, so I’ve written my own: The Humane & Ethical Adolescent Transportation plan also known as #HB5514 by @repcavitt that will ensure youth are treated with dignity and care during transport to treatment - something I was not afforded as a teen. Looking forward to seeing this move forward tomorrow and help protect Michigan’s youth💙 I’ve loved spending time in Michigan (my husband's family is from there), and it would mean so much to see this state lead on protecting kids #HB5514 #MILeg #MIPol @MI_Republicans @MIHouseDems

Thank you @pjqualityguru for believing in our campaign!   Our momentum is growing and so is our team. We had twice as many donors as the House Dems this cycle and raised twice as much money. People believe in the work we are doing, and they want us to keep it going for years to come.   The Democrats want to keep the broken status quo. We need a strong Republican majority and a governor who will help us eliminate waste, fraud and abuse, audit state government and deliver tax relief to the people.
Perry Johnson@PJQualityGuru

Congrats @RepMattHall! I was proud to donate $20k to HRCC to help them hold the state house! We need to all work together to make Michigan a red state up and down the ticket!

Michigan is 38th in energy affordability. 38th.   We have the natural resources. We have power plants being closed for political reasons. What we don’t have right now is a strategy focused on keeping costs down for families and small businesses. That’s not right.   BAD POLICY is what's driving up our monthly bills, plain and simple. Failed Biden-era mandates, rate hike after rate hike, and reliable power plants put out of commission. It makes no sense, and Michigan families pay the price.   My HELP UP (Hall Effectively Lowering Property taxes & Utility Payments) plan puts a stop to it. It will completely wipe out the last three years of rate hikes (saving families about $500/year) and get us back to what matters: RELIABLE, AFFORDABLE power!

The ol' Lansing two step... by politician Kevin Hertel. He tells his district he supports Selfridge, but then he pulls a bunch of procedural nonsense and double talk and kills the funding for the base because the Lansing insiders told him to. Just do the right thing @Hertelforsenate. You always tell people you support the base. But your vote today screwed Macomb County. This is why everyone hates two-faced politicians. Millions of dollars in economic impact, thousands of jobs, a new fighter mission, now all at risk. Thanks to Kevin Hertel. Good job @SenAricNesbitt and Senate Republicans forcing the vote so we know who Kevin Hertel really represents.

Mike’s right. This is why our budget cuts funding for Michigan State University’s illegal alien welfare scams. We will NOT support cash handouts for illegal aliens with no strings attached and no verification. Fraudulent schemes like that take money out of our pocket and literally pay illegal aliens to come to Michigan and live off our taxpayers. There is too much waste, fraud, and abuse in the budget, and I’m going to get rid of it. We’re also tightening enforcement to crack down on Medicaid fraud and make sure benefits aren’t being misused. Dead people on the rolls, lottery winners cashing in, out of state schemes. It’s happening right now, and it's all wrong. Taxpayer money should ONLY go to the people who actually need our help. My plan would make that the LAW. I’m glad to see more people calling this out. We need a governor who’s ready to work with us to protect taxpayer dollars and restore some common sense. We're fighting hard to give people better value for their tax dollars, and we won’t stop.
Mike Cox 2026@Mike_Cox

NEW AD: Rampant waste, fraud, and abuse is ANOTHER tax on hardworking Michiganders.  I know because as Attorney General, I charged 55 illegal aliens in a major Medicaid fraud scheme that led to the recovery of more $350+ million in Medicaid fraud that I returned to taxpayers and led to numerous criminal prosecutions and convictions. I did this while cutting my own office staff size by 20% and returning money to taxpayers every year. Now we know today that fraudulent programs like Rx Kids are giving DIRECT cash payments to illegal immigrants, and Whitmer requested $20 million more for that program in her latest budget.  Anyone can talk about DOGE-ing waste, fraud, and abuse, but I have actually done it! As your Governor, I will find every bit of it, eliminate it, and put that money back in the pockets of hardworking Michiganders!

Our bill honoring a true Southwest Michigan hero was signed into law this week. Master Sergeant Gregory T. Kuhse served our country for 19 years and gave his life in Afghanistan in 2015. He was a leader, a mentor, and a man who always put others first. And he was also a devoted husband and proud father. The portion of US-131 between I-94 and Parkview Avenue in Kalamazoo County will soon stand as a daily reminder of his sacrifice. I’m grateful to his wife, Torri, and family for allowing us to help tell MSgt Kuhse’s story. His legacy will not be forgotten!

I’ve been saying this for a long time: we have to get repairs to Selfridge done in May. Gov. Whitmer agrees, and so does the Air Force. Securing the new fighter mission at Selfridge is a time-sensitive and critical investment tied directly to our economy and national security. We need to make sure Michigan doesn’t miss out because we moved too slow. House Republicans have already moved a plan to fund the improvements to the base. We sent that plan to the Senate, and the governor is waiting to sign it. The only hold up are the Senate Democrats. There’s no reason to keep waiting. Kevin Hertel and Senate Democrats need to pick up the pace. Hertel talked a big game about supporting the base, but now we're at risk of losing the mission because of his delays. This bill is too important to get held up and stuffed full of everyone's pork projects. Our military readiness and our economic future depend on it.

Proud that my bill passed the Michigan House today. Children being transported to treatment deserve dignity, safety, and compassion. This is an important first step toward making Michigan a safer place for all children! It was great working with @repcavitt and @repmatthall, and I look forward to working with @winniebrinks to move it through the Senate and with @govwhitmer to sign it into law #HB5514 #MILeg #MIPol

Yesterday, House Republicans delivered another responsible, taxpayer-first budget under my leadership, and we got it done the right way, smaller than last year’s. We focused on actual spending, not the bloated, pork-filled budgets Democrats love. The result? $2 billion less in spending without making harmful cuts to core services. We delivered $100 million more for our local roads, $10 million more for the public safety trust fund, and we solidified the Hall Universal Breakfast and Lunch in Schools plan (HUBS) so ALL students are fed healthy food and ready to learn. We invested hundreds of millions in early literacy and early childhood education. We are saving Medicaid by making sure it serves the people it was intended for, while rooting out fraud in the system. We implemented a Trump-inspired reform for childcare: funding based on actual attendance, not just enrollment, ending the waste and abuse. No new taxes. No new fees. We eliminated 3,300 ghost employees and invested $300 million into the Rainy Day Fund to protect Michigan’s future. This is what real leadership looks like: cutting waste, protecting priorities, and delivering for Michigan families without raising your taxes. House Republicans are fighting for you everyday.

As promised, House Republicans are proposing a SMALLER budget last year and PROTECTING programs people care about. While Democrats propose taking meals away from some students, Hall Universal Breakfast & lunch in Schools (HUBS) makes sure they ALL get school meals.

This is what Senator Hertel always does to make it look like he’s doing something, while not actually doing anything. The $152 million for the new mission at Selfridge needs to be approved by May to get the new mission operational. Instead, Sen. Hertel uses shaky budgeting gimmicks with a fallback on raiding the rainy day fund to fund Selfridge. And worse, he puts this unserious proposal in his subcommittee budget, which won’t get this done in time. This is all words and no action. Plain and simple. If Sen. Hertel was serious about getting this done, he’d move a standalone supplemental to help deliver on President Trump’s promise to Michigan.
Nick Smith@NSmithReports

Senate Appropriations Military, Veterans & State Police Subcommittee moves State Police (SB 864) and Military & Veterans Affairs (SB 865) budgets to full Appropriations. The DMVA budget includes a FY 2025-26 supplemental of $152M for Selfridge Air National Guard Base project

Following the Democrats’ disastrous convention this weekend, it’s clear they are in need of leadership. Because I am committed to delivering another great budget deal that cuts waste, fraud, and abuse and prioritizes important services like education, public safety, funding to our local communities, and the Hall Universal Breakfast and Lunch in Schools plan (HUBS), I have appointed former Speaker Joe Tate as the Democrat Vice Chair of the House Appropriations committee. Speaker Tate is highly respected, and many Democrats have been coming to me recently saying they had made a mistake in changing leaders. Now is Speaker Tate’s opportunity, in his final months in the legislature, to lead the Democrats and join me in delivering a great bipartisan budget deal on time for the people of Michigan.

Go get ‘em, Garlin!
Speaker Matt Hall@RepMattHall

The MIGOP convention was a great success, and I want to congratulate Chairman Jim Runestad and thank him for his strong leadership. Now the focus shifts to the Democrat convention in April. For Secretary of State, Garlin Gilchrist would be the easiest opponent for us to beat. The public had no interest in his gubernatorial campaign, and he has even said he had no interest in ever serving as Secretary of State. Gilchrist has a dismal 4% attendance record in the legislature and has zero experience as a clerk or in administering elections. The Lansing establishment supports him simply because he does what he’s told. He frequently embellishes his resume and takes credit for accomplishments he had nothing to do with, including the GREAT DEAL I negotiated to save Medicaid funding in Michigan. I am willing to give him credit for his support of Governor Whitmer’s approach of working closely and cooperatively with me and President Trump. This sets up a great matchup for Anthony Forlini, who has won tough elections in Macomb County and brings proven experience as Clerk along with unmatched expertise in administering elections. In contrast, Gilchrist has lost every election he’s ever run in, including his bid for Detroit City Clerk, where he admitted there is widespread voter fraud in Detroit. Even though Gilchrist has lost numerous elections, maintains a 4% attendance record in the legislature, and has stated he has no interest in being Secretary of State, I must endorse him for the Democrat nomination. After all, he has accurately claimed there is widespread voter fraud in Detroit and has been very supportive of Governor Whitmer’s cooperative approach with President Trump. We can make Michigan great again IF the Democrat delegates do their part. Good luck, Garlin.

One of the biggest budget wins in Michigan's history is Speaker Hall's H.E.A.T. Plan — Hall Ethics, Accountability, & Transparency — passed last year. That means THIS year: 📢Budget requests are public 45 days before a vote ⏲️Purpose + timelines listed for special projects 🚫No money to organizations that don't exist 🚫No money to corporations And more It's your money. You should know where it's going.
Michigan House Republicans@MI_Republicans

🚨Millions have been requested for various "arts & culture" grants in this year's upcoming budget. Thanks to the Hall Ethics, Accountability, & Transparency plan, this information is public for the first time so that Michigan taxpayers can decide for themselves what they think instead of finding out where their money went after it's passed. michigancapitolconfidential.com/news/theaters-…
