Meanwhile, Representative Deb Dingell highlighted the importance of the WIC program in Michigan, emphasizing its role in supporting mothers, babies, and the country's future.
Despicable. And the constituents just sat there and listened to him? I know whose office I’ll be visiting in Washington DC!!! https://t.co/NZZRlSD44Y
Great to meet with farmers from all across Monroe County and discuss energy prices, workforce issues, and EV mandates. I am proud to support those who work every day to feed our neighbors and country. https://t.co/DJ1ixOvW3D
don’t oppose this genocidal statement in the wrong way, you might lose your job https://t.co/LXkXFOFIbj
Joined @FoodGatherers, WIC recipients, local leaders, and community members for a WIC roundtable to discuss the importance of this program in Michigan and beyond. Investing in WIC is critical. It doesn’t just feed moms and babies – it’s an investment in our country’s future. https://t.co/HwijfnTCrk
Wow. Michigan Republican Representative Tim Walberg, on Gaza: “We shouldn’t be spending a dime on humanitarian aid. It should be like Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Get it over quick.” https://t.co/Qt4xzwmV2B
