I’m running for Congress to tackle the affordability crisis, invest in Michigan families so folks can afford to raise a family and retire with dignity, expand access to quality healthcare, & make sure every child has the chance to thrive! Are you with me? https://t.co/mJa6py3IV2

Some are asking why @RoKhanna was in Palestine as an American congressman who doesn’t represent Palestine.

We met with many Palestinian-Americans who have been brutalized by the IDF and received no help from the embassy. We watched American-owned land being stolen in real time.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

Israeli settlers, brandishing American made M4s, detained me & other Americans on my trip to Palestine.

When the IDF arrived, they sided with the settlers & continued our detention.

They made a huge mistake.

You will be hearing more soon. https://t.co/rZw8bRAn64

Let’s be honest here, no matter how some will try to spin it there is nothing that justifies what @GovWhitmer just did.

The only parties benefitting from her vetos are corporations.

What a blatant betrayal.

[Beth LeBlanc @DNBethLeBlanc]

Michigan labor groups, including AFL-CIO and MEA, release statement on Whitmer's veto:

[Aisha Farooqi @AishaforMI]

@JeremyAllenMoss Let’s set the record straight - Whitmer just vetoed 9 bills that would’ve given corrections officers retirement security, restored teachers and public employees right to bargain over health insurance, and protected working class families from debt collectors, and you’re out here telling voters you’ll “fight” for the same people she just threw under the bus?

You don’t get to campaign on her endorsement and then play tough guy against her agenda whenever it’s convenient. Pick one.

[Jeremy Moss @JeremyAllenMoss]

I’m proud to be a Michigan Senate Democrat, a team that sued the shit out of the Republican State House and fought all the way to the Supreme Court to protect working families.

This fight to lower healthcare costs and secure retirement doesn’t end here. I will work tirelessly towards this goal in Congress. Our teachers, firefighters, and corrections officers deserve nothing less.

[Aisha Farooqi @AishaforMI]

Cute tweet. You were literally one of 8 Senate Dems who voted to gut the minimum wage increase Michigan workers had already won in court.

One Fair Wage called it a ‘blatant pay cut and betrayal.’

Working class folks can read voting records, Jeremy.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo lived in Houston for 35 years.

He built a business, built his own home, and put three kids through college.

On Tuesday, ICE agents, looking for someone else, wearing no body cameras, shot and killed him on his way to work.

His son recognized his father’s voice in a video and realized his father had been killed.

Billions of our taxpayer dollars are being used to terrorize our neighbors. This is why we need to abolish and prosecute ICE.

82% of Michigan state legislators have taken money from energy PACs.

Jeremy Moss has taken $20k + alone.

Michigan can’t have reliable power because our politicians are bought and paid for.

[Aisha Farooqi @AishaforMI]

@AustinMarsman AIPAC has held several fundraisers and urged its donors to donate to my opponent, so have several of their subsidiaries and longtime donors.

You’re smart enough to know they’re involved in this race, Austin. This is not the gotcha moment you thought it was.

[Aisha Farooqi @AishaforMI]

@WWFerguson2 Yes, proud member!

[umichvoter @umichvoter]

I'm wondering if national progressive groups are gonna get involved on the Stevens Michigan seat

[Aisha Farooqi @AishaforMI]

My top priority is ensuring the people of my district receive the support and funding they deserve, not Israel.
