To the people of mid-Michigan—thank you. It has been the honor of my life to serve you in Congress.

I will see you back home.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

Throughout my time in Congress, I have always focused on what I could do to make the lives of Michiganders better. I am proud of what we have accomplished together to just get things done for working people.

50 years ago, Congress passed the Safe Drinking Water Act—legislation that set national standards for drinking water quality.

I joined @EPA to reflect on the progress we’ve made and the work that remains to ensure everyone has access to safe and affordable drinking water.

Today, we celebrate two years of the Respect for Marriage Act—a bill which protects same-sex and interracial marriage rights in federal law.

I was proud to help pass this important legislation to ensure that every American can marry the person they love.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

Ran into a former class of 2012 colleague today @SenDuckworth! We entered into Congress together & she's done great work for the people of Illinois in the U.S. Senate.

I’m often asked what I will miss the most about Congress and, for me, it’s the friendships like these.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

I’m proud to have secured funding to ensure our mid-Michigan law enforcement agencies have the personnel and equipment they need to improve public safety, reduce crime and protect themselves while on duty.

Congratulations to Saginaw’s Diya Ramakrishnan on winning Michigan’s Eighth District Congressional App Challenge!

The app she created will help better diagnose serious health conditions, like cancer. As a cancer survivor, I understand the importance of early detection tools like these.

I am inspired by the young talent in our district and know Diya will go on to achieve great things!

Today, we honor and remember the 2,403 American service members and civilians who lost their lives at Pearl Harbor. Their bravery and courage will not be forgotten.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

Today, I spoke on the House Floor for the final time as a Member of Congress.

My deepest gratitude to the people of mid-Michigan, my esteemed colleagues and my dedicated staff. I’m so proud of all that we’ve accomplished together these last 12 years.

Always a pleasure to meet with @IrelandAmbUSA Geraldine Byrne Nason!

As a member of the Friends of Ireland Caucus and a proud Irish American, I’ve always been committed to building upon the strong relationship between the U.S. and Ireland.

[Ambassador Geraldine Byrne Nason @IrelandAmbUSA]

Thank you @RepDanKildee of Michigan for being such a true friend of Ireland during your 12 years on Capitol Hill. So looking forward to continuing to work you in the years ahead. Go raibh mile maith agat.

Congratulations to the 2024 IGNITE graduates!

I secured federal funding for IGNITE to provide education & job training to incarcerated people, setting them up for good-paying jobs in the community.

Through this program, we're improving public safety & strengthening our economy.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

Small businesses are the backbone of our mid-Michigan economy. On Small Business Saturday—and every day—let’s shop local and support our community’s entrepreneurs.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm grateful to the mid-Michigan community who trusted me to represent them over the last 12 years in Congress.

I wish everyone a wonderful day filled with good food & quality time with loved ones.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

I was proud to help pass the new law that is bringing federal funding back to Michigan to create jobs and support auto manufacturing.

Thanks to this investment, we are expanding clean hydrogen production sites right here in mid-Michigan that will help Flint's Mass Transportation Authority run on clean energy vehicles.

November is National Diabetes Month.

I was proud to cap the cost of insulin at $35/month for seniors on Medicare, but too many Americans still struggle to afford this life-saving drug.

My bill, the Affordable Insulin Now Act, would cap the price of insulin for ALL Americans, regardless of their insurer.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

I’m so sorry for your loss, @SenStabenow. Sending my love and deepest condolences to you and your family during this difficult time.

[Sen. Debbie Stabenow @SenStabenow]

I am very sad to share the news that my amazing mom, Ann Greer, passed away tonight at the age of 98. Mom has been at my side and a source of strength throughout my life.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

As Co-Chair of the Congressional PFAS Task Force, I introduced a bipartisan bill to designate a point person at the @DeptofDefense to engage with PFAS-impacted communities. These communities should not be ignored, and my legislation will ensure their voices are heard at the highest levels of government.

I’ve loved every minute of serving mid-Michigan in Congress, but my time as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives will come to an end on January 2nd. While my staff and I will continue working hard for the district until the last day of my term, we are making plans for a smooth transition.

If you have a case open with our office, a member of my team will be reaching out with information about your options to either transfer your case now or wait until my successor comes into office in January.

If you have any questions about this transition, don’t hesitate to reach out to our office at [phone].

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

I’m pleased to see the Senate pass my bill to defend Michigan agriculture from harmful pests and diseases.

The House should take up and pass my Beagle Brigade Act to protect our farmers and food supply.

[Rep. Dan Kildee @RepDanKildee]

Happy Birthday, @POTUS!

It has been an honor to work with you to support the middle class, lower the costs of prescription drugs, and bring back manufacturing jobs to Michigan. Thank you for your leadership.
