We're the Michigan Progressive Women's Coalition — our goal is to create an equitable future where ALL Michiganders can thrive. #MiProgressiveWomen

[MIProgressiveWomen @MichiganPWC]

We deserve leaders who protect our rights, not attack them. We must stand up and speak out against the Trump-Musk administration & build a future where women's voices are heard, our leadership is valued & our right to #ReproductiveFreedom is never up for debate. #HandsOff2025

[MIProgressiveWomen @MichiganPWC]

Wishing everyone a happy Diwali. May your celebration be full of light!

Religious Freedom is a Progressive Value
The separation of church and state is essential for religious freedom. The PWC will fight for religious freedom so long as religion is not being used to oppress others.

Michiganders have a lot in common regardless of political party. Nobody wants to see gridlock in Lansing. Progressives are ready to work for the people. And the people are tired of waiting. Let’s go. #NoGridlock #ForThePeople #SharedIdeals #MichiganProgressives

Workers power Michigan. PWC fights for fair pay, paid leave, and safe jobs for all Michigan workers.

Freedom is a Progressive Value
The freedom to vote. The freedom to read. The freedom to marry. The freedom to protest. The freedom to dream. These are progressive values. This is what the PWC stands for.

Michigan deserves better. We demand a budget that invests in people, not politics. #MichiganBudget #ForThePeople #ProgressiveValues

[MIProgressiveWomen @MichiganPWC]

The MI House GOP budget guts funding for workers, families & communities to fund their priorities.
Cuts to:

Job training & small biz support

Education pathways for youth & adults

Environmental protections & clean water

Public health & reproductive care...

PWC stands with those who keep our state moving forward, today and every day.

This Labor Day, we honor the hard work and dedication of Michigan’s workers. From factory floors to urgent care clinics to classrooms, every job matters, and every worker deserves respect, fair pay, and safe conditions.

This week, House Republicans passed their budget that cuts funding for maternal health & sexual assault kit testing & denies the Caregiver Tax Credit, all on #NationalWomensEqualityDay. Dems won't stop fighting for the rights of women across the state.

[MIProgressiveWomen @MichiganPWC]

We're highlighting Nannette Gardner, a Michigander who was the first woman to cast a vote in Michigan in 1871. Michigan has been at the forefront of the fight to ensure everyone has the #FreedomToVote and their voices heard. https://t.co/q9HECoJsO5

At a time when things seem bleak & bad news is around every corner, let's celebrate a win: Medicaid funding for @PPFA will stay intact... for now. We'll keep fighting so people in every ZIP code can access the care they need & deserve. #HandsOffMedicaid https://t.co/RzZEjK3B2y

SCOTUS just denied Medicaid patients the ability to go to Planned Parenthood for healthcare. This will limit access for cancer screenings and preventative care. SCOTUS doesn’t care if people die so long as they can defund Planned Parenthood.

[Rep. Joey Andrews @RepJoeyAndrews]

Cutting Medicaid at this large of a scale isn't "cutting fraud," it's gutting life-saving medical funding for thousands of Michigan families. It will hurt patients, strain hospitals, and impact care in every corner of Southwest Michigan. Congress must reject this reckless plan.

Hey, Michigan Republicans: Abortion care is health care.

[Heartland Signal @HeartlandSignal]

NEW AUDIO: Michigan State Rep. Karl Bohnak (R-Deerton) says he does not support women making their own health care decisions.

CONSTITUENT: "So you don't support a woman’s autonomy over her own body?"

BOHNAK: "I don't."

[MIProgressiveWomen @MichiganPWC]

Today marks three years since SCOTUS set #ReproHealth rights back decades by overturning Roe v. Wade. @MIHouseDems have remained committed to safeguarding #ReproductiveFreedom by repealing the archaic 1931 abortion ban & passing the Reproductive Health Act.

[Laurie Pohutsky @lpohutsky19]

This decision makes clear what we already knew: a constitutional right must also be accessible. I’m relieved that the Court of Claims struck down these blatantly unconstitutional laws.
