Every Michigan representative, Republican and Democrat alike voted on a bill to fight organized retail crime and cargo theft and impose more severe sentences on the criminals performing those acts.
All except one that is.
You guessed it, the rep who voted against it was, of course, Rep Rashida Tlaib (D-Dearbornistan).

All but one member of Michigan's U.S. House delegation — progressive Detroit Democrat Rashida Tlaib — supported the CORCA bill when it passed the chamber in May."I voted against this bill because it would vastly expand the power of Trump’s Department of Homeland Security to surveil and criminalize our communities," Tlaib said in a statement.
Too many of her constituents are criminals and she clearly doesn't like the idea of cracking down on international criminals that she supports, and not leaving these large scale thefts in the hands of soft-on-crime local prosecutors that slap them on the wrist as they steal billions from law-abiding Americans.
