AIPAC has spent a record amount in this race to elect my opponent because she'll be a reliable vote to a foreign government that is aiding, arming, and abetting a genocide. I want your tax dollars spent on schools in Michigan, healthcare in Michigan, and roads in Michigan.
Rep. John James: "Thank you Mr President for coming back to Michigan, where you won three times" (Trump in fact lost Michigan in 2020)

I don’t want to be a crypto champion. I’m going to be a champion for Minnesota’s working families.
Donald Trump wants to spend your taxpayer dollars separating families and building new ICE prisons. In 2016, I voted against reopening this prison in Appleton. In the Senate, I'm not going to send one more penny to this lawless, out-of-control agency. Let's rip ICE apart.
