Muskegon has a thriving farmers market, and the state of Michigan just gave them a $481,267 grant to make it even better.

We deserve a food system that serves families and local communities, not just Big Ag. Let’s protect local investments that make Michigan thrive.

Corporate utilities like Consumers Energy are out of control. That's why it's so important we get utility money out of politics and ensure our lawmakers are focused on what's best for the people.

Michiganders think we need to get utility money out of politics (and they're right).

Mike Duggan has a dirty little secret: He's been getting cozy with the corporations behind the recent push for more data centers. We should all be concerned about this.

ICE doesn't belong in Southeast Michigan, and the lawyers for ICE are no better than the agents themselves. People in Southfield are coming together to demand that landlord Redico cancel a lease agreement to get #ICEOut.

A bad farm bill is worse than not having one at all. Contact Michigan Senators Elissa Slotkin and Gary Peters to tell them to vote NO on the House farm bill.

The U.S. House voted last week to cut food assistance and funnel more money and power to Big Ag. We now need the Senate to vote NO on the House’s farm bill and pass policies that benefit everyone, not wealthy corporations.
