No longer would vehicles be too expensive for the average family. Henry Ford, and his Michigan workers, had revolutionized the auto industry and put the […]

“If you build it, they will come.” I’m not talking about a baseball field in Iowa. I’m talking about building out broadband networks in rural communities throughout Michigan. As the Republican Leader of the Energy, Communications, and Technology Committee, my top priority for this term is bringing access to high-speed internet to our community. I […]

This past week, the voices of nearly 5 million Michiganders were silenced and ignored as Democrats quickly and quietly voted to impose a tax increase. They used a conference committee procedure, which avoids any changes or discussion of the bill passed by the committee, to stop a guaranteed income tax cut that would have benefited […]
