Democrats when someone without an ID signs an affidavit to vote: "VERY secure." Democrats when an American citizen signs an affidavit to prove their signature is valid on a petition ensuring only citizens can vote: "I don't think that should count." @RepWoolford
WOW. Americans for Citizen Voting staff lay out EXACTLY how many signatures were valid that Democrat members on the State Board of Canvassers claimed were "invalid." Handwriting experts and signed affidavits were THROWN OUT, and a petition with 80% SUPPORT nationwide got tossed off the ballot.

.@RepWoolford has made rooting out waste and protecting Michigan taxpayers the center of his work in Lansing. That's exactly why he earned FGA's Rising Star Award. Congratulations!
Thank you @WHMI for highlighting my selection for the Rising Star Award from the Foundation for Government Accountability! As Chair of the House Oversight Subcommittee on State and Local Assistance Programs, I remain committed to rooting out waste, strengthening accountability, and protecting the hard-earned tax dollars of Michigan residents. #Michigan #LivingstonCounty #Hartlandmi #Howellmi #Fowlervillemi #Pinckneymi #staterepresentative

🗳️MICHIGAN'S SAVE AMERICA ACT🇺🇸 Rep. Woolford's (R-Howell) bill to require proof of citizenship to register to vote and voter ID at the polls is sitting in the Senate because Democrats refuse to listen to 80% of people who want ONLY CITIZENS VOTING in our elections. Michigan stands out as a state that desperately needs this done. @MISenDems' inaction will lead to more ILLEGAL votes CANCELING OUT your vote. @RepWoolford
🚨MICHIGAN HOUSE REPUBLICANS SUPPORT THE SAVE ACT🇺🇸 From Lansing to D.C., we've been advocating for real ELECTION INTEGRITY🎙️ The vast majority of Americans believe ONLY U.S. CITIZENS should be able to register to vote and PHOTO ID MUST BE REQUIRED to vote🗳️ This is common sense.

House Republicans are unified and committed to improving Michigan election integrity. Rep. Jason Woolford (R-Howell) will be part of the select committee to examine how the State Board of Canvassers is trying to silence 700k+ voices who signed a petition ensuring only citizens can vote in our elections. Woolford sponsored Michigan's SAVE America Act, passed in the House in April, to require voter ID to cast a ballot and proof of citizenship to register to vote. @RepWoolford
🚨BREAKING: DEVELOPMENT ON MICHIGAN CITIZENS ONLY VOTING🚨 U.S. Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh has ordered Jocelyn Benson, the State Board of Canvassers, and other Michigan officials to respond by NOON TOMORROW to an emergency Supreme Court application seeking to put the Michigan Citizens Only Voting amendment on the November ballot🗳️ Michigan officials must file their response soon, a key step as the Supreme Court considers whether to grant emergency relief.

The people deserve elections they can trust. Illegal votes do not get to cancel out your right to vote. In April, we passed Michigan's SAVE America Act to require voter ID to cast a ballot and proof of citizenship to register to vote. After multiple cases of voter fraud in Michigan, this is the way to safe and secure elections. @RepWoolford
709,000+ voices want ONLY CITIZENS voting in Michigan — nearly the most signatures on a petition in the last decade. And those voices were silenced. House Republicans take this seriously. That's why we passed Michigan's SAVE America Act in April, and it's why we created a special committee to investigate this. - We have dozens of voter fraud cases in Michigan alone. - Investigations into suspicious activity in Muskegon have been reopened. - A Chinese national's vote COUNTED in 2024, which we only know because he came forward. - Michigan's Democrat AG just charged multiple noncitizens for voting in our elections. - And Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson REFUSES to share requested voter roll information with the Trump administration. The people want safeguards, but the Board of Canvassers said no. We MUST get to the bottom of this.

Bad actors do NOT have the right to cancel out YOUR right to vote🗳️ After numerous cases and charges of voter fraud exposing our weak election system, we MUST require voter ID and proof of citizenship to register to vote through the SAVE America Act in D.C.🇺🇸 We also passed Michigan's SAVE America Act months ago. @MISenDems need to put American votes above voter fraud criminals and pass it NOW.
🚨BREAKING: NON-CITIZENS CHARGED AFTER VOTING IN 2024 ELECTION🗳️ While Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson shouts from the rooftops that our elections are safe and secure, there are now MORE charges against non-citizens voting in Michigan. This has been exposed despite Benson REFUSING to share requested voter roll data with the Trump administration, as many other states have already done. Just to help people keep track of how "safe and secure" our elections are: 📜2020: Thousands of ballot applications and voter registrations manufactured out of thin air. Still under federal investigation. 🗳️2024: A Chinese national voted in the 2024 election and was only discovered because he turned himself in. 📈Today: 38 additional suspected cases of voter fraud including non-citizens voting in the 2024 election non-citizens being registered. We passed the SAVE Act in Michigan (HB 4765) to stop this. Congress needs to pass it now!🇺🇸 detroitnews.com/story/news/p…

🔐SECURING WELFARE PROGRAMS🔐 Crucial programs are helping people in need across our state, but poor management and low accountability standards are leaving the door open to fraud and abuse of taxpayer dollars. These programs MUST BE SECURE for those who need them most and made unavailable to people trying to take advantage of the system: ✅ID chips in Bridge cards to stop identity fraud 📜Monthly error rate checks and reporting to keep the department accountable 👋Removing ineligible people from the rolls 🔎Checking other states for people who double dip 🗒️Cross-checking eligibility against federal databases 🚫No waivers for changes to the program without the Legislature 👍Eligibility verification instead of blind acceptance of everyone's application 🗣️Mandatory reporting to the Legislature on ineligibility to make sure it's getting done 💰Saving $185 million for critical services through Medicaid reforms

Thank you @realdonaldtrump for your strong address to the nation tonight exposing criminal voter fraud and reopening the FBI investigation in Muskegon to restore faith in our elections. Michigan House Republicans repeatedly called on Joe Biden's FBI to stop slow walking this investigation into Muskegon voter fraud, but it never happened. I fully support President Trump directing FBI Director Patel to reopen this investigation to find all criminal activity. Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson should stop her obstruction and work with the Trump Administration to remove dead people and illegal aliens from Michigan's voter rolls.

$4+ MILLION bill for Michigan taxpayers from SNAP benefits going to OUT-OF-STATERS. This is why we just passed Rep. Jason Woolford's HB 6013 to: ✅Use pre-existing MDDHS data to track Bridge card use out-of-state ✅Suspend benefits after 90 days until residency is verified ✅And do it all without changing SNAP eligibility rules or who qualifies for benefits Michigan has seen a 400% increase in fraud in recent years. This legislation is one of the many examples of House Republicans cleaning up state government and making it work for the people again. michigancapitolconfidential.…
I am proud to share that my bill, HB 5813, officially passed the House this week! This legislation requires the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to publicly report Medicaid error rates and improper payments annually, strengthening oversight and helping identify areas for improvement. Michigan spends billions each year through its Medicaid program, and it is important that taxpayers have transparency into how accurately those funds are being administered. HB 5813 is a commonsense step toward greater accountability and responsible stewardship of our taxpayer resources. #Michigan #LivingstonCounty #Hartlandmi #Howellmi #Fowlervillemi #Pinckneymi #staterepresentative

SECURE MICHIGAN ELECTIONS We passed @RepWoolford's bill to require voter ID in Michigan because ONLY CITIZENS SHOULD VOTE in U.S elections. This is common sense.

Michigan's public assistance programs are failing. The current administration of benefits has allowed millions of dollars in fraud because the system relies on applicants to self-report ineligibility. Now, Michigan is facing HUNDREDS of millions in penalties if we don't right the ship. We can't rely on pinky-swear fraud checks to keep bad actors out of the system. We need REAL security measures to preserve SNAP and Bridge Card dollars for families and seniors who really need them.
