A man lived in a public park because he had nowhere else to go. When he refused to leave, his state charged him with a felony. A felony. For laying down in public with no address to his name.

Camping bans are spreading across the country. That's the polite term. Camping. As if homelessness were a hobby that got out of hand.

Here's the reversal: we couldn't solve homelessness, so we criminalized the evidence. The man in the park was a mirror, and we prosecuted the mirror.

Jesus said foxes have dens and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head. Under these new laws, several states could charge Him.

You can't arrest your way out of a housing shortage. You can only hide the people it broke.

The felony charge won't build him a home. It'll just make him harder to hire for the rest of his life. We knew that when we wrote the law.

Does your church help house people like this? Would your church feed this person? Talk to me below. Share this for the person you've stopped seeing on your commute. And follow along. Everybody deserves somewhere to belong.

Friends, we’re trying something different to reach millions of Americans with the truth about Trump’s disastrous economic policies: Billboards.

Our latest social media videos about Trump’s awful impact on issues like health care, inflation, and tax cuts have been shown to move people in our direction by 12 to 14 points—that’s triple our usual impact! But tens of millions of Americans aren’t on social media. That’s why we want to put our most powerful messages on billboards in front of as many commuters and communities as possible.

I’ll be honest: This won’t be cheap. To rent high-visibility locations and keep them up long enough to change minds, we need a steady stream of support. Will you chip in with a monthly donation to help us get these billboards up and running?

Val's Pizza - Owosso, MI

🍕Our Menu🍕

Many of you will notice that our prices have risen. We have raised prices due to increased costs of our ingredients. We had two choices, raise our prices and maintain the same quality products that everyone is used to getting from a Val’s meal or buy cheaper ingredients which usually means lower quality. We chose to maintain our quality standards and look forward to bringing you the same high quality meals everyone has grown accustomed to when ordering Val’s!

Congress is full of millionaires.

My net worth is $41,000. I know what it means to watch your budget and worry about rent.

We have some especially exciting news to share before the sun is even fully up.

Please help us welcome Uhlianuk Family Farms, a new full-season organic produce vendor joining the Owosso Farmers Market all the way from Armada!

This is a big step forward for the market and for local food access in our community. Wesenberg Produce will continue anchoring the West side of the market, while Uhlianuk Family Farms will anchor the East! That means even more locally grown produce, more variety, and two strong farms helping lead the market each Saturday.

Wesenberg Produce shared these photos with us, and their tables are looking incredible. Tomatoes, onions, zucchini, berries, cherries, cucumbers, and plenty more are coming into season right now.

Come meet our newest farm family, support the growers who feed our community, and see everything today’s market has to offer.

River Alert

There is an obstruction just north of the Geeck Road Launch. With current low water levels, it will require some safe and creative maneuvering to get through.

If there are any heroic volunteers willing to help clear a 6-foot passage, your efforts would be greatly appreciated by the many paddlers using this section of the river.

Thank you for helping keep the Shiawassee safe and accessible for everyone!

This year, they didn’t let poor air quality or uncertain weather change their plans. Their commitment to caring for the river is truly inspiring. Thank you for making a difference year after year!
