I’m deeply disappointed by the heartless approach this School Aid Conference Committee has had toward pivotal school safety and mental health funding – a topic that should be unifying for all legislators, regardless of political ideology.

“It was an honor to welcome these exemplary members of our local fire safety teams to attend our 9-11 memorial ceremony,” DeBoer said. “We can’t thank our public safety officers and first responders enough for all they do to keep us safe. It’s a fitting time for this ceremony as we continue to remember and honor the heroes who responded to the tragic attacks on America 23 years ago today.”

“Our local schools are also seeing their school safety and mental health funding dramatically slashed by more than 90%,” DeBoer said during a speech on the House floor. “We cannot wait for another tragedy to happen to continue funding school safety and mental health support. Our actions and support for student safety must be continuous and proactive to prevent future devastating events.”

State Rep. Nancy DeBoer has introduced legislation addressing recurring mishaps within Michigan’s child care subsidy program.

Immediately after taking office in January, I knew one of my top priorities would be to get some needed relief to Michigan families who were struggling to make ends meet. Inflation was recently at a 40-year high, and everyone deserves relief from the high cost of everyday goods and services.
