Friend,
Michigan is ground zero for the 2026 elections.
With an open U.S. Senate seat and an open Governor’s race, all eyes are on Michigan. The path to keeping Democratic leadership in Washington and Lansing runs straight through our state — and Republicans know it.Trump’s allies are already lining up to take control. They’re pushing dangerous policies, like the reckless tariffs that hurt Michigan workers, rollbacks on clean energy, and a far-right agenda that will set our state back decades.
We cannot let that happen.

Democrats can win in Michigan. We proved that when we elected Elissa Slotkin to the Senate last year. But 2026 will be an even bigger fight. With Trump off the ballot, we need to mobilize like never before to stop his hand-picked candidates from taking power.
If we start now, we can defend our Senate seat, keep Michigan’s Governor’s office blue, and elect Democrats up and down the ballot. But only if we have the resources to fight.
