I'm thrilled to receive the endorsement of the Arab American Democrats. I can't wait to work with them to ensure that the issues that matter most to Arab American Michiganders are addressed and everyone has what they need to thrive in the Great Lakes State.

I had the best time traveling through the Upper Peninsula, talking with Yoopers about how we can work together to grow the Democratic Party here in Michigan.

The Trump administration doesn’t care about solving your economic problems. They’re just making it harder for you to live your life. If you’ve been impacted by Trump’s disastrous policies in just this first month, I want to here from you: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I can’t wait to visit the Upper Peninsula this weekend and learn what I can do as MDP chair to ensure these communities have the resources they need to elect Democrats up and down the ballot. See you soon!

I'm thrilled to have the support of Mayor Sheldon Neeley. He's been a leader in Flint for decades and knows how to fight for what his community needs. I can't wait to work with him to build a stronger, more united Democratic Party here in Michigan.

For his entire career, Sen. Jeff Irwin has fought for progressive change—from environmental protections to affordable housing to racial justice. I couldn't be happier to have his support.
February 11, 2025 at 6:38 PM
From fighting to pass criminal justice reform bills to improving our state's transparency laws to protecting reproductive freedom—Sen. @jeremymoss.bsky.social has Michiganders' backs. And I'm glad he's got mine in the race for MDP Chair.

I want to know how some of Trump’s disastrous policies have impacted you. Take a moment to share your story, and then let's look forward, unite as one team, and fight back: bit.ly/42PkMtf

Sen. Gary Peters has been a strong and effective leader in Michigan for decades. He's worked across the aisle to find commonsense solutions to the problems working people in Michigan face every day. I'm honored to have his support.

Sen. Debbie Stabenow is a trailblazing leader who has dedicated her entire career to public service. She's fought to protect our Great Lakes, improve conditions for workers, and increase access to affordable health care. It's an incredible honor to have her endorsement.

Rep. Hillary Scholten knows what it takes to put partisan politics aside, focus on common-sense issues, and win in red districts in Michigan. She's fighting for working families in West Michigan, and I'm so grateful to have her support.

It's a great privilege to have the backing of SEIU Michigan members. Together, we'll make sure that the rights of Michigan workers are protected, and that worker priorities are always at the forefront of our efforts.
