In 2022, she defeated fellow Democrat Andy Levin in a primary while defending her seat during redistricting, winning 60%-40%. She filed articles of impeachment against HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in December 2025 over public health concerns. She sponsored legislation on workforce protections, manufacturing, infrastructure, and social policy. She has been active in debates on gun violence, reproductive rights, and ICE enforcement oversight.
