It’s National Michigan Day!
It’s National Michigan Day!
From beautiful places to historic accomplishments, there are lots of things that make Michigan special.
For instance, did you know that Michigan is surrounded by four of the five Great Lakes -- giving us more shoreline than any other contiguous state? Or that we have 11,000 inland lakes and the country’s only floating post office?
From building the world’s first international vehicle tunnel to laying America’s first mile of concrete road to installing the country’s first four-way electric traffic light -- Michiganders are industrious, and our state is no stranger to leading the way.
Michigan was the first state to abolish the death penalty and the first state that voted to overturn prohibition. In honor of National Michigan Day, will you make a donation of $5 or more to help your friends in Michigan make sure MI-11 -- and our state -- goes blue in 2020?
When Donald Trump won Michigan by less than 11,000 votes in 2016, he flipped our state red for the first time in almost 30 years. That means Michigan will play a major role in this year’s presidential election:
Donald Trump and national Republicans are relying on Michigan staying red to secure Trump a second term -- that’s why they’re investing early in districts that flipped from red to blue like mine.
Making sure Democrats show up to vote in Michigan is critical to the outcome of the presidential race. If you think the Great Lakes state should be blue, chip in to support my team’s organizing efforts in MI-11 >>
Thanks for all you do, and happy Michigan Day!
