Friend – this is Congresswoman Haley Stevens writing to you with
exciting news: Today, I’m launching my campaign for Michigan’s open
U.S. Senate seat.
Winning in Michigan is essential to regaining our Democratic Senate
majority, and right now The Cook Political Report is rating our race
as a “Toss Up.” That means we’re already one of the GOP’s top targets
for defeat. Just last year, they spent nearly $80 million trying to
buy Michigan’s Senate seat and came up only 0.3% short, so I need your
early support to win.
Friend, I want to tell you a bit more about myself and why I’m
running. But
if that’s all you needed to hear and you’re ready to get to work,
please chip in whatever you can – split between my campaign and Ted’s
campaign – to help hit our $1 million launch goal and become a
Founding Donor of my campaign to keep Michigan blue.
I’m proud to be a lifelong Michigander. I learned the value of hard
work by watching my parents – who owned their own landscaping business
– build things. Heavy machinery equipment, bobcats, plows, dirt,
grease, and grime – it was all part of my childhood.
Later in life, I got the call to give back to the state I love
during a time of great uncertainty: the Great Recession. I
can’t tell you how unfathomable it was to hear the words “bankruptcy”
and “General Motors” in the same sentence. So I stepped up to
do my part and served as chief of staff for the Auto Rescue initiative
under President Obama.
We brought workers, corporations, and union leadership around the
same table to stabilize the auto industry. On Friday nights, I’d stay
in the office until the late evening and return every call from every
Michigander who called our office worried about the future. In the
end, we saved 200,000 Michigan jobs.
I can’t help but see parallels between then and now as we find
ourselves in another moment of great uncertainty, thanks to the chaos
forced on us by Donald Trump and his billionaire buddy Elon Musk.
People are rightly concerned about rising costs, shoot-from-the-hip
tariffs, and attacks on our personal freedoms. Michiganders
need a fighter in their corner – and that’s who I’ve been my entire
life.
