ON THE JOB FOR MICHIGAN: Local Leaders Highlight Gary Peters’ Leadership in Strengthening the Future of Selfridge Air National Guard Base

WASHINGTON, DC – In a new “On the Job” video from U.S. Senator Gary Peters’ (MI) office, local leaders highlight Peters’ long-time efforts to strengthen the future of Selfridge Air National Guard Base. Throughout his time in the Senate, Peters has worked tirelessly to secure the base’s new KC-46A tanker aircraft and F15-EX fighter jets, two long-term, next-generation missions that will cement the base’s integral role in U.S. defense strategy for decades to come. Additionally, Peters secured funding and legislation to establish the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Northern Border Mission Center at Selfridge, which will ensure the base continues to play a critical role in both U.S. national and homeland security. The video is part of the On the Job for Michigan series, which highlights Peters’ leadership and advocacy on behalf of Michigan constituents and communities.

Why a CEO and other leaders want to lower Michigan car insurance costs

Jennifer Wortz is on a mission to help consumers across Michigan — who are paying among the highest auto insurance rates in the nation — find some relief. The Republican state legislator from Quincy, just east of Coldwater, is one of those who are focusing on the subject including Joe Tate (a fellow state rep from the other side of the aisle, D-Detroit), Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and businessman Eric Poe. While the majority of states experienced auto insurance rate relief in 2025, Michigan drivers had a 13% rate increase, costing an additional $356 on average, according to Insurify’s database of over 250 million auto insurance quotes it examined. Michigan drivers have the fourth-highest auto insurance bill in the country, increasing from the 11th highest in December of 2024, Insurify found. Michigan drivers pay roughly $1,000 more than the national average cost of insurance. Drivers in the Great Lakes State pay $3,229 a year for full-coverage car insurance, while Detroiters pay a whopping $5,894, it found. For Wortz, a mom of four grown children, the issue is personal. When her 22-year-old daughter graduated from college and got a job as a teacher in Oklahoma , she inherited her
