Priorities & campaign themes: “Serving as your State Representative is the honor of my life. I’ve dedicated my career to showing up, doing the work, and fighting for Michigan families – not just talking about problems, but solving them .”
(Campaign website) Abortion & reproductive rights: “Together, we’ve made real progress: protecting reproductive health care, standing up for workers, investing in our public schools, safeguarding our drinking water, and working to ease the cost pressures facing families across our state.”
(Campaign website) Economy, jobs & cost of living: “My commitment to this work comes from lived experience. I came of age during the Great Recession, started my adult life in a time of economic uncertainty, and at 31 faced a breast cancer diagnosis that brought the devastating shortcomings of our health care system into sharp focus. I’ve also lived the same pressures so many families feel: rising costs, stagnant wages, and the constant effort it takes just to stay afloat.”
(Campaign website) Priorities & campaign themes: “That’s why I ran for office in the first place: because government should work for the people it serves. Not some of us — all of us .”
