Hello Friend,
If this is the first time you are hearing from me, please let me introduce myself. I’m Curtis Hertel, former state senator and now, the new Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party.
I am so grateful for Lavora Barnes’ years of dedication to the Michigan Democratic Party and our great state. As Lavora has before me, I am going to fight every day to show that the Democratic Party is the party of working people and that we are building a brighter future where everyone can make it in Michigan.
Right now, we are facing the fiercest test of our democracy in our lifetime. Donald Trump and his MAGA extremists are attacking our democracy from every angle they can as they sell out the middle-class to pad the pockets of billionaires.
Working people deserve better, Friend, and Michigan Democrats are stepping up and fighting back to protect our communities across the state.
I am fired up to build a stronger coalition of Democrats with some of the very best leaders across our state and lead Michigan Democrats to victory in 2026 and beyond.
