I am grateful for Jeff Abernathy's leadership over the last 14 years at my alma mater — Alma College.

His work significantly expanded undergraduate opportunities and I'm looking forward to seeing him continue to serve in a new role at Alma as an English Professor!

The NFL draft is going to be huge for Detroit.

But we can't forget the UNION workers who built the stage at the heart of this amazing event. None of this would be possible without them.

Make no mistake: this is a massive win for ALL American workers.
 
The UAW is fighting for the future of the middle class and I'm proud to stand with them. Everyone should be able to join a union.
