Daniel has led Jackson through that responsibility with care, steadiness, and a deep commitment to this community. He knows what this job demands - and what this moment requires.
His support means a great deal to me.

This photo is spring of 2017, campaigning for my first term as mayor. Marc and I crossed paths at a spaghetti fundraiser w/ labor leaders for the United Way of Jackson County. Safe to say we’re both a little older—and a little wiser—since then.

Proud to support this first-of-its-kind policy in Michigan to help keep our kids safe.

As a gun owner + dad of a Jackson Public Schools student, this one matters to me.
2A protects our right to own firearms + w/ that right comes a responsibility to store them safely and protect our kids. Schools can’t do that alone. It takes all of us.

NEW: American Nathan Martin wins the closest Los Angeles Marathon in race history, beating Kenya’s Michael Kimani Kamau by just 00.01 seconds. Martin was seen chasing down Kamau at the end of the race. “I made an actual move five miles out… when I saw no one else was picking up the pace. I decided I needed to push,” the 36-year-old said. “At a mile and a half to go, I could see the leader and with 800 meters to go, I was thinking, ‘I’m catching him.’” Martin finished the race with a time of 2 hours, 11 minutes, 16.50 seconds.

Congratulations to all the Eagle Scouts recognized this week — the badge may come early in life, but the responsibility to serve lasts a lifetime.

Scouting helped shape who I am, and I’m especially grateful to my dad, who made sure I stuck with it when I might have quit. The lessons about character, service, and leaving our world better than you found it have stayed with me ever since.

This week I was honored to receive the National Outstanding Eagle Scout Award, which recognizes Eagle Scouts who continue the values of Scouting through leadership, service, and impact in their communities.

Proud to endorse Jan Maino for State Rep in the 46th! Jan has the vision and grit to champion affordable housing, better schools, and infrastructure upgrades that will directly benefit Jackson families. Let’s get Jan to Lansing!

I look forward to passing this resolution on March 17 and taking a commonsense step to help protect our students, educators, and community. Student safety must always come first. mlive.com/news/jackson/2…

Grateful for this recognition, and even more grateful for the mentors, volunteers, and fellow Scouts who helped shape the leader I strive to be.

Whether it’s fighting for working families, strengthening our schools, or building opportunity in our communities, I carry those lessons with me. Service above self isn’t just a motto - it’s a way of life.

Earning the National Outstanding Eagle Scout Award from @boyscouts Michigan Crossroads Council is an incredible honor - and a humbling reminder of where my journey began.
