- During the past month I attended town hall meetings hosted by US Rep Moolenaar’s staff flunkies. Mr. Moolenaar has not met with his constituents in a town hall meeting format since 2017, My participation was focused on holding him accountable as an elected representative for ALL the people in MI02 not just those who may have voted for them.
- I have made regular postings to the Defund Moolenaar Facebook group that have repeatedly called out the misinformation and lies he has posted on social media. Please join this Facebook group by using this link:

- I was out of the country from April 23 through May 10, but am looking forward to attending the May 13th meeting and the Ice Cream Social
