Michigan is proud to be home to innovative, life-saving medical research. No matter what happens at the federal level, a Benson-Brinks administration will remain committed to advancing critical medical research. Grateful for the opportunity to tour @NorthernMichU.

Kicked off a canvass with @MichiganLCV and @MICollegeDems in Marquette this morning. The U.P. is a priority in this campaign, and we’re putting in the work to earn every vote.

Such a joy to spend the night with neighbors in Grand Rapids tonight to cheer on my running mate, @JocelynBenson. Our message is simple: Costs down, wages up, and rights protected.

We repealed right-to-work in 2023. John James wants to bring it back. Not on our watch 💪

Just held a press conference outside a gas station, where Michigan families are being hit the hardest. With record-high prices at the pump, John James abdicated his responsibility and voted six times to let this reckless war continue. In November, we will send him packing.

On the line with UAW 1002 in Middleville this morning. 1,200 workers are on strike, and all they're asking for is a fair contract. Jocelyn and I stand with them and with every Michigander's right to collectively bargain.

14 years ago, I launched a write-in campaign for State Representative. Now, I'm honored to be on the ballot with @JocelynBenson. Together, we're building a people-powered movement to transform this state for the better. Early voting starts TODAY, make your plan to vote!

MUSKEGON! Thank you for coming to our meet & greet! Access to capital, economic development, and tariffs hitting small businesses were all top of mind with the folks I spoke with. Jocelyn and I are on it day 1!

Our politics should never include threats of violence against the people who serve us — no matter who they're aimed at. Invoking "the gallows" for people you disagree with isn't political speech, it's dangerous. I condemn it fully.
