👍 or 👎, Friend?

, I am contacting you today with an important question: Do you agree or disagree? We are facing a critical moment in protecting millions of Americans, and I want to know where you stand. I understand that this system is broken because I have spent my life trying to reform it from within. Regrettably…

Crystal clear

Good afternoon, friends. It's been a privilege of mine to spend my career on the frontlines of women's healthcare, and lately I've been moved witnessing firsthand the power and determination of women leaders in our district. Thank you to all the remarkable women who have joined our cause. I am grate…

To you, from Crystal Falls

Friends, first, a little about me: I was born and raised here, served in the military, saw combat in Afghanistan, and returned home after retiring from the Joint Staff.  I voted first mainly for Republicans and finally as a staunchly independent voter. I looked for candidates based on these criteria…

Friend, our opposition is fighting democracy and taking food stamps away from Veterans... A first-time Democratic candidate rarely makes a dent in the electorate against a Republican incumbent in a red-leaning district. But, with your support, we can finally defeat Trumpism in rural Michigan. Rep. B…

Re: Trump's "reich" comments

Friend, no one should be winning votes by suggesting we should deport 15 million immigrants, crash our workforce, destroy families, and create food shortages. We must reject threats to Medicare or Social Security, and no one's campaign strategy should be to promise windfall tax cuts to billionaires …

Listening

Friend, outsiders can't do it for us; it's our message and our issues that will make the difference. This movement is about something other than big money, outside recognition, or national attention. It's about caring, listening, and offering hope to the local community. We must show up and be prese…

Friends, every legal beagle, attorney, and authority who has reviewed Bob's primary opponent's challenge has deemed it utterly meritless, and Bob Lorinser will most assuredly appear on the ballot. Still, the Board of Election Canvassers will make that decision at the end of the month. In the meantim…

A Robin Williams joke & a cartoon

Friends, this is one of my favorite jokes by Robin Williams and a sad/funny cartoon I thought you'd enjoy. It puts a light-hearted perspective on a very serious issue, and I want you to know where I stand. We've gone too far here. This issue needs to be addressed, and until it's resolved, I will con…

👺 Rep. Bergman's upset

Friends, Rep. Bergman is upset that Dr. Jill Biden is championing funding for the Soo Locks.

Friend.

Frustrated,

Friend, my position is clear - but one of my opponents is pushing for this abhorrent solution. Others in the race have echoed a rhetoric that only dilutes the urgency.

Our "radical left" agenda?

Friends, it wasn’t Jack Bergman, it was Callie Barr, who tried to remove me from the ballot on a frivolous complaint clearly not applicable to a Congressional race.

Trump-style tactics in MI dem primary

Friends, being the Democratic front-runner doesn't come without obstacles. Sadly, this trump-style maneuver by our primary challenger is one of them, but we have a slam dunk.
