Fight to continue reducing costs for families, protect the Great Lakes, combat PFAS contamination, expand domestic manufacturing and workforce development, support Michigan agriculture, and strengthen national security.
I’ll be fighting to continue reducing costs for families, protecting the Great Lakes, combating PFAS contamination, expanding domestic manufacturing and workforce development, supporting Michigan agriculture and strengthening our national security.
Peters listed several priorities he said he would fight for through the appropriations process, including costs, Great Lakes protection, PFAS, manufacturing, workforce development, agriculture, and national security.
Peters said he helped make the Inflation Reduction Act law, with provisions to lower health and prescription drug costs and encourage clean energy manufacturing.
Supports the family-cost and domestic-manufacturing portions of the promise through enacted legislation during Peters' 2021-2027 Senate term, though broad cost outcomes remain partly ongoing.
Peters' office says he helped enact the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, including Great Lakes investments and support for communities facing shoreline erosion and flooding.
Shows concrete enacted action on protecting the Great Lakes and related resilience needs in Michigan during the relevant Senate term.
Peters' office reported Senate passage of the CHIPS and Science Act, citing domestic semiconductor manufacturing, Michigan auto-sector supply chains, jobs, and national security.
Supports the domestic manufacturing, workforce/economic development, and national-security portions through a major bill Peters backed that later became law.
Peters helped advance FY2024 agriculture appropriations with provisions for Michigan producers, specialty crop pests, agricultural PFAS research, tart cherry labeling, and crop-production technology.
Shows concrete advocacy for Michigan agriculture, but the cited action was committee advancement rather than final enactment, so it supports partial fulfillment.
Peters' office says a provision he authored was signed into law requiring critical infrastructure cyberattack and ransomware-payment reporting to CISA.
Supports the national-security portion through enacted cybersecurity legislation aimed at defending critical infrastructure from foreign and criminal threats.
