Friend,
The number one issue for voters is affordability, and last month’s election proved it. In races across the country, voters turned out to hold Republicans accountable for making life harder and more expensive for working families.
But this week, Donald Trump said the quiet part out loud. In a Cabinet meeting, Trump called affordability concerns a “con job by the Democrats.”
Michigan families are feeling the effects of rising prices. It’s no con that Trump’s agenda is making everything more expensive.
This is what we’re up against: a Republican Party that has spent years spiking health care costs, raising grocery prices, and gutting the programs working families rely on. Now they’re doubling down, telling voters struggling with real economic pain that it’s all just a “scam.”
Michigan Democrats see things differently. We believe affordability is important, and the cost of living crisis is real. We believe Michigan families deserve leaders who take their concerns seriously. And we are organizing every single day to elect Democrats who will fight to lower costs and protect working families.
This is exactly where your grassroots dollars go, Friend: powering on-the-ground organizing, opening new offices across the state, and building the voter turnout infrastructure we need to win in 2026.
But to keep up this work, we need your help today. Will you chip in right now to help Michigan Democrats fight back against Trump’s agenda and keep building the movement that can defeat him and his allies in 2026? [[link removed]]

Voters made their voices heard this November: they want leaders who understand their struggles, not politicians who mock them.
If we keep organizing, keep showing up, and keep working together, we can build a blue wave right here in Michigan.
Let’s make it happen,
Curtis Hertel
Chair, Michigan Democratic Party
