We are out here working hard to elect @AbdulElSayed. I am so inspired that I will finally be able to vote for a MI senate candidate who supports Medicare for All, ending endless wars, stop funding the genocide the Palestinian people + protecting our water and air. #MedicareforAll #FreePalestine

Metro Detroit DSA endorses Cory Ferriby for Lenox Township Trustee! Cory is a democratic socialist running to fight mass surveillance & data centers in rural Macomb. He is running on a platform of restoring transparency to a Township government long plagued by corruption.

We want to give a HUGE congratulations to our friend, comrade, and now State Representative-Elect Chris Gilmer-Hill on his win against an incumbent Democrat! District 8 recognized that if you want someone to fight for you and stand up to corporations, you elect a socialist.

FWIW Helena Scott might lose her primary to a DSA challenger so that’s why she’s freaking out

State Rep. Helena Scott yesterday told me that, “if Abdul wins, we’re fucked.” She wouldn’t commit to supporting him if he makes it to the general election, which she says he can’t win. Scott is running against DSA-backed Chris Gilmer-Hill in Michigan’s 8th state House district.

State Rep. Helena Scott is ok with throwing Trans people, Women, Black and Brown people to the wolves just because she'd rather lose to a republican than support a candidate with policies that prioritize the Working Class. Vote for Chris Gilmer-Hill (@313CGH) on August 4th.

DSA is proud to endorse @313CGH for Michigan’s State House. As a lifelong Detroiter, environmental activist, and union member, Chris is running to hold corrupt utility companies like DTE accountable and to make life more affordable for all. Chris is ready to fight for housing protections, single-payer healthcare, and for publicly owned utilities – because Chris knows that workers deserve more.
Chris is wearing a navy blue suit with a light blue button up underneath, and glasses. He's crossing his arms and smiling slightly, yet warmly. He looks ready to take on the status quo and win a better world for all.

Not to be lost in the Friday news dump mix: Michigan’s Board of State Canvassers is recommending certification of a petition initiative that would bar political spending by Michigan’s regulated utilities and large state contractors if approved by voters in November.

@ShriThanedar I see how you are pushing attacks rooted in racism. Shri, post your campaign report! Show your residents who funds YOU. Donavan didn't take a dime from corporations for his congressional campaign BUT YOU DID. VOTE SHRI OUT.
Andrew Solender
@AndrewSolenderJul 15
The Democratic primary in #MI13 is getting particularly nasty. Rep. Shri Thanedar is out with a new ad labeling his primary challenger, state Rep. Donavan McKinney, “dirty money McKinney.” The ad goes after McKinney’s progressive cred, saying he is “not fooling anyone.”

For all the money DTE and Blue Cross gives her, you’d think Helena Scott would have a less creepy van. She’s running against Chris Gilmer-Hill @313CGH who does NOT take any DTE or Blue Cross money. The primary is on August 4th!

Replying to @lpohutsky19
@lpohutsky19 saying the quiet part out loud. We need to stop allowing the most powerful leaders in our state to use procedural tricks to subvert the will of the people—it wasn’t the first time but it should be the last. I’ll be introducing legislation next week to do just that
Craig Mauger@CraigDMaugerJul 10
As one lawmaker pointed out: At any point over the last two years, the governor could have made clear she was going to veto the 9 bills over timing issues and effectively ended the legal fight.

My good friend State Rep. Helena Scott and I hit the sidewalk to talk to Michiganders! I'm in the fight to lower costs and expand health care access for all Michiganders.
