Public servant running for U.S. Senate because it shouldn't be THIS hard to get by. Michigan born and raised. Girl Dad. Doctor. Vote by August 4th!

I believe in the kind of America where no matter where you grow up, the color of your skin, how you pray, you deserve equal rights in this country. You deserve to go to a good school, get healthcare when you need it, and know that you can graduate and get a good job.

It's not about one US Senate seat. It's about all of us together. It's about a belief that we can take our government back from the very people who want to monetize us at every turn. The fomentors of inequality. The drivers of war and genocide and apartheid. We get to decide.

I stood with local and state elected officials to say that we cannot approve any more AI data centers until we have federal guardrails to protect local communities like Saline Township from being run over by the likes of DTE, Oracle, and OpenAI.

It's no coincidence that we now have a trillionaire and at the same time lower union participation than ever before. It's because the corporations that spit out billionaires and a trillionaire do everything they can to bust unions.

This democracy is ours for the building. 250 years in, the only thing that has rescued us from some of the worst moral failures in our country's history has been democracy. Can we be better? That's the choice we have now.

Meet Mr. Larry. Mr. Larry was a bus driver in Detroit before he was forced into early retirement after a car crash left him with severe injuries. Despite having health insurance, he ended up with thousands of dollars in medical debt. Then we erased it.
