Michigan United for Justice and Dignity invited me to speak on Michigan’s capitol steps.

I had the excellent opportunity to share the microphone with House Representative Abraham Aiyash. I took a moment to talk about our federal Covid Relief aid money held up in our House of Representatives.

At the end of 2020, Congress passed a Covid Relief Bill that granted billions of dollars to Michigan to increase vaccine distributions, safely re-open our schools, and assist renters in staying in their home this winter. But none of the funding is being used to help local government, schools, and families. The sooner, the better we can act with this money, the faster we can recover from the devastating effects of this Pandemic.
