Know your rights, act accordingly.

TODAY IS THE DAY 🗳️

Get out and vote. If you haven't already, go now.

Our ancestors fought and died for this right. They were beaten, arrested, and killed so we could walk into a voting booth and have our voices heard. And now too many of us take it for granted. That's not acceptable.

Change doesn't happen because we hope for it. It happens because we show up. It happens because we do our part. Today is your part.

If you're in Michigan's 12th Congressional District, I'm asking you to vote for my friend and law school classmate Byron Nolen. He's the real deal. A man of the people who actually cares about us and will fight to bring real change to Washington.

Don't sit this one out. Don't wait. Go vote today.

Our democracy depends on it. Our future depends on it.

Perkins for the People.

When a friend is in trouble, what's your instinct? To hide, or to stand by them? The response from this young man raises tough questions about true loyalty and solidarity. What would you do? This is a clip from the Real Lyfe Unfiltered Podcast:

Micro transit or whatever the community needs is the future. We're committed to providing solutions that fit each of the 43 communities we serve, recognizing that one size does not fit all. Many residents may not want to drive due to gas prices or insurance costs.

Dedicated youth striving for skilled trades and community colleges face immense barriers due to inadequate public transit. Without this millage, the path to education and opportunity closes. It's unacceptable for students to endure 2-hour commutes via disjointed bus systems or walking, impacting their ability to learn.

Your ZIP code should not determine how long you live. But too often, it does.

In medical school, Anthony Eid learned that life expectancy is shaped by far more than what happens inside a doctor’s office. Access to safe housing, healthy food, reliable transportation, quality schools, clean air, and nearby healthcare can all influence whether a community thrives.

That means health policy cannot begin and end with insurance coverage. It must also address the conditions people live in every day.

Where you live should not decide whether you get a longer, healthier life.

In Inkster, the lack of public bus service forces residents into unaffordable car ownership, facing steep insurance and gas prices. This is a major challenge impacting daily life.

Falling behind on rent should not mean facing eviction court alone.

Detroit’s Right to Counsel program gives eligible tenants access to legal representation before they can be removed from their homes. The program was supported with American Rescue Plan funding, but much of that federal money is now gone.

Anthony Eid believes Detroit should continue funding the program and give residents who are struggling a fair chance to remain housed.

Because the alternative is not simply an eviction notice. It can mean homelessness, family disruption, missed work, interrupted education, and even greater costs for the entire community.

Keeping people in their homes is not playing favorites. It is responsible public policy.

Wayne County faces a critical decision on SMART bus service. It's an all-or-nothing vote: either the county opts in with 13 other communities for a united service, or there will be no SMART service at all. The future of bus transit hangs in the balance.

Trying to get to a job in Novi from Detroit via bus turned into a 2-mile walk. Delayed SMART buses, disconnected city lines, and a lack of service in opt-out communities meant a trek along busy roads without sidewalks. Imagine navigating that with mobility challenges.
