Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone celebrating! John and I send best wishes for a joyful day spent with loved ones.

The American people expect their government to work for them and listen. It’s the holiday season, we should be showing America our better selves not driving the nation into a pointless shutdown.

A government shutdown is unacceptable. It’s a lack of leadership from President Trump and Republican Congressional Leaders.

A wall is a symbol of division and hatred. We can all agree we need to keep our nation secure, but we must look at innovative technologies and border security — not a wall.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year There is more that unites us Than which divides us When we hold others dear It’s the most blunderful time Yes, the most maddening time But the most wonderful time Of the year

There’s a new Speaker hosting The Blue Wave is growing And some decency back in DC There’ll be compromise needed And working together To get the bipartisanship of long, long agooooo

It’s the most ridiculous time, of the year There’ll be many late-night meetings And covfefe flowing When Individual 1’s shutdown draws near It’s the most ridiculous time of the year

There’ll be tax cuts not working Healthcare for fixing And potholes still covered in snow There’ll be scary false stories And tales of the glories of Infrastructure bills of long, long ago

Upholding @JohnDingell and my favorite holiday tradition, here is the 2018 #DingellJingle set to the tune of "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year."

We cannot grow numb to Facebook’s continued violations of user’s privacy. This @NYTimes report is another signal that Congress must enact legislation to protect Americans’ sensitive information.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1075211218137296896 …

Banning bump stocks is a meaningful first step to keeping our communities safe. Let’s continue working together to pass commonsense gun safety laws and save lives.

Today’s MDEQ report highlights the need for EPA to set one national protective standard for the entire class of PFAS chemicals.

Many in our community have questions about PFAS and its presence in our waters. Michigan has been hit hard, and this chemical is a threat to human health and our environment wherever it is found, whether in drinking water, air, food, or consumer products.
