Senator Peters has dedicated his life to serving the people of Michigan. As he prepares to retire at the end of this Congress, I’m grateful to celebrate his incredible career and all he has done for our state.
He has been a mentor, a friend, and an esteemed colleague, and I’ve been honored to serve alongside him. Michigan has been fortunate to have his leadership, and I’m grateful for the example he has set for all of us.
