Working on my aim before heading back to Washington next month. Another Big Ugly Bill would hate to see me coming. 🪓
Rep. Debbie Dingell
@debbiedingell.house.gov
Proudly serving the people of Michigan's 6th Congressional District. Chair of the House Democratic Policy and Communications Committee.
The Gordie Howe bridge’s pedestrian and bike path is now open! This path from Michigan to Canada embodies our enduring connection and partnership. Our work now is to pave a path to a stronger future for U.S.-Canada relations that strengthens our communities, economies, and mutual respect.
The president wants to let people pay for early access to his social media posts. This would give wealthy people and corporations access to market-moving information before anyone else. It’s another case of corruption for this administration.
I don’t care about labels. I care about results. We all need to work for an affordable America. No family should have to choose between groceries, gas, housing, and healthcare.
Survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault deserve to be heard, and those who perpetuate abuse deserve to be held accountable. I’ve spent my career fighting for survivors, because I know what it is like to be in a situation wondering if you will live or die.
Affordable and accessible healthcare should not be a privilege for the wealthy. It should not be labeled a progressive or moderate idea by the media. Healthcare is a human right. And we must keep fighting for an affordable America that leaves nobody without the care they need when they need it.
No chance I’m letting China disrupt America’s auto industry to destroy our workforce and manufacturing economy. We need a level playing field in the global marketplace that does not allow China to manipulate their currency and rely on slave labor to get ahead. www.reuters.com/business/aut...

Medicaid has helped millions of Americans access the care they need for more than 60 years. Proposed changes threaten coverage for seniors and working families. I’ll keep fighting back, and we need you to keep speaking up. www.wemu.org/wemu-news/20...
Rep. Dingell urges public to express dissatisfaction with proposed Medicaid changes
With Thursday the anniversary of Medicaid becoming law, Congresswoman Debbie Dingell is encouraging her constituents to oppose changes that could cost millions of Americans their healthcare coverage. ...

Healthcare shouldn’t be a luxury. It should be affordable. It should be accessible. It should be a human right. We’ll keep fighting until it is.
"Families are losing coverage. Premiums are rising, rural hospitals and nursing homes and maternity wards are under enormous financial strain. Patients are delaying care because they simply can't afford it." - @debbiedingell.house.gov on the devastating impact of Republican Medicaid cuts
Healthcare shouldn't be a luxury. It isn't something that you only have if you're wealthy or you're lucky. Every American deserves the peace of mind that comes from knowing that they'll be able get the treatment that they need without facing financial ruin. - @debbiedingell.house.gov
We need Medicare for All now to put an end to the untold human cost of not having healthcare. @jayapal.house.gov @debbiedingell.house.gov @repbonamici.bsky.social @reprashida.govpeeps.us
Today's opening of the Gordie Howe bridge will strengthen our economy and create jobs on both sides of the border. It’s a powerful symbol of the partnership between the U.S. and Canada. We are stronger when we work together, not when we create unnecessary barriers between allies.
We have 100 days to fight for an affordable America. We have 100 days to determine our future, so let’s get it done.
Canada is our neighbor, friend, and indispensable partner. I look forward to seeing the Gordie Howe bridge officially open on Monday to help both Michiganders and Canadians. This opening serves as a lasting reminder of the ties that unite us.
Wildfire smoke is a reminder that we are all connected. Air does not recognize borders. Neither do the impacts of a changing climate. We need to work together across borders and political differences to address the challenges we face. www.detroitnews.com/story/opinio...
Wildfire smoke is a reminder: we are all connected | Dingell
Recent wildfire smoke in Michigan is a stark reminder that we share the same air and responsibility for our future.

Trump’s continued false claims about the 2020 election should concern all of us. This isn’t about 2020 anymore. It’s about eroding trust in our elections and in the votes Americans will cast in 2026. We must protect the integrity of our elections and freedom to vote.
Today we honor our dear friend John Lewis and the extraordinary legacy he left behind. He dedicated his life to protecting our democracy, expanding the right to vote, and urging us to make “good trouble” in the face of injustice. The best way to honor him is to keep doing that work.
My district includes the University of Michigan, a medical research powerhouse. They depend on medical research being guided by science—not politics. The Trump Administration's plan to inject politics into science threatens improved healthcare outcomes for ALL Americans.
Wildfire smoke is continuing to make the air unhealthy from Michigan to D.C. Older adults and people with certain health conditions should stay indoors when possible. And don’t forget to check on a friend or family member. We get through days like this by looking out for one another.
Today I am returning home to be with my family during an incredibly painful and deeply personal time. Our family’s 12-day-old daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter has returned home to God this afternoon. We have been in God’s hands throughout all of this.
The administration stopped monitoring foodborne illness, and now it’s turning into a shitty situation for Michiganders. I’m going to be leading an oversight effort demanding answers from the CDC on why they weren’t prepared and how they plan to respond. open.substack.com/pub/distills...
Trump Cut Food Safety. Now Michigan Has the Shits.
The CDC stopped monitoring foodborne illnesses and now over 3K Michiganders have explosive diarrhea. 💩

Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill gutted Americans’ healthcare and ripped food from hungry families in order to pay for a tax cut for billionaires. More than 8 million Americans have already lost their healthcare and over 4 million Americans have lost food assistance.
Women in America do 62% of all unpaid caregiving. Over 280 hours a year picking up prescriptions, taking kids to the dentist, or watching over aging parents. That's $682 BILLION in invisible labor. Caregiving is a key pillar of our economy, and it is time our policies reflect that.
Congress actually got something done and passed a bipartisan bill to lower housing costs. But President Trump is refusing to sign it. His indifference is nothing but an F-U to the American people. www.ms.now/weekends-wit...

Healthcare costs are rising for working people, and this administration is doing nothing to help those who are hurting the most. When Democrats take back the House, we will get to work expanding access to affordable, quality healthcare.
Join me in celebrating John's 100th birthday. Come spend the afternoon at the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge enjoying the outdoors, sharing stories, and honoring our enduring friendship with Canada at North America's only international wildlife refuge. RSVP here: tinyurl.com/3xkzhs87
President Trump drove up costs for working people with his Iran war. And now he’s refusing to sign bipartisan affordable housing legislation? This is not 4-D chess. It’s Russian roulette.
Algae in the reflecting pool? Check. Big Mac wrappers littering the White House? Check. Refusing to sign bipartisan housing legislation and instead focus on voter suppression? Check. Another week of winning for the president.
