Rep. Mike Harris, R-Waterford, stands with Independence Township Supervisor Chuck Phyle in the Michigan House of Representatives chamber ahead of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s State of the State address on Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2025.

“Michigan is back on its feet now that Republicans have the House majority. The governor is starting to reach across the aisle and work with us.”

“After a long and vocal effort by the people of Michigan, the Legislature is taking action to save the jobs of Michigan workers and keep small businesses in our communities afloat.”

“Michiganders’ very livelihoods are on the line, and we’re listening to the workers and small-business owners calling for their representatives to act.”

“Day after day, police officers face danger to keep their neighbors safe from theft and violence. They deserve support — not abusive rhetoric from activists, unsafe red tape from politicians, or dangerous criminals released back on the streets early.”

“Government officials should do the job they have — serving the people of Michigan — without letting any conflicts of interest distract them from that duty.”

“House Republicans won’t be giving any taxpayer-funded handouts to local governments that obstruct the federal immigration officers who keep our country safe.

“Michiganders want confidence that our elected representatives and other government officials are laser-focused on serving the people.”

“I’m excited to bring the voices of Oakland County residents to some of the most critical issues facing our state.”

“Standing for small businesses means standing for well-paying local jobs and quality local services in our communities.”

“For years, the Michigan budget process has been mired in self-dealing, as some lawmakers and the governor have given away taxpayer-funded favors to their close political allies.”
