We can beat Donald Trump in West Michigan

A contribution to my campaign is a contribution against a 2024 Donald Trump victory. It’s that simple.   NBC’s Meet the Press will be highlighting Kent County–the heart of my district, MI-03–as we approach the 2024 election because they understand that West Michigan will be …
