Mercy Harbor is officially open in Benton Harbor! These 34 new homes will give more Michigan families the chance to put down roots, become homeowners, and build a future in the community they love.
That’s what we’re working toward across Michigan!
The project is a partnership between Harbor Habitat for Humanity and Renovare Development. Officials from both companies were joined by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and local and state leaders to celebrate the development.

Muhammad said he couldn’t be happier to have his friend, Governor Gretchen Whitmer, on hand for Tuesday’s celebration. He also announced he’s going to seek to rename part of Union Street near the development as Gretchen Whitmer Way.

One detail:
Scott Colom’s advisers tried to keep Kamala Harris out of Mississippi, two Dems say. He went around them and called her himself.
Now his race is too close to call, and he’s crediting her with putting the state’s crumbling rural hospitals on the map.

In 1939, Jesse Lee Bond was lynched in Tennessee simply for asking for a receipt. Decades later, his great-granddaughter, Justice Kyra Harris Bolden, became the first Black woman to serve on the Michigan Supreme Court.This is the arc of the moral universe. This is how pain is turned into purpose. This is how we redeem the Dream of America—by refusing to forget our history and by continuing the fight for justice.

John Lewis, 2018: We are going forward. When the state of Georgia becomes blue, along with the state of Texas, they will not be able to hold us down. It’s going to happen.
ONE JOB AT A TIME: Three days after winning a U.S. Senate seat, Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed is already fielding questions about a presidential run.
His answer? “Nope.” He says he’s focused on serving his state in the Senate.
The exchange comes as El-Sayed shows off a baseball cap with “JD HABIBI” printed across the front, a gift that sparks questions about his newly launched Habibi PAC.

This Sunday at Ebenezer Baptist Church, Governor-Elect Keisha Lance Bottoms shared that when God called her to run for office, she listened. And on November 3, Georgians elected her to move Georgia forward.
Thank you to Reverend @SenatorWarnock for a powerful sermon and to the Ebenezer family for such a warm welcome.
Senator-elect @AbdulElSayed on Capitol Hill today for new member orientation. Soon to be Reps and Senators in the 120th Congress are in DC this week getting a lay of the land
It was my honor to welcome our 11 new Democratic Senators, with two more hopefully on the way!
They will bring essential new ideas and perspectives to the Senate, and I can't wait to work with them to lower costs, and end Trump’s corruption and chaos.
@JackiKarsh, thank you for your exceptional representation 👏 and communication to all attendees of the @CombatASemitism Mayors Summit Against Antisemitism. I came to listen and learn, and I did both.
