In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I had already known over a dozen women who had been sexually assaulted.”
“I didn’t know exactly what field of law I wanted to practice, but I wanted to advocate for women and children”
“Tonight belongs to every volunteer who knocked on doors after work, every supporter who made phone calls, and every voter who believed we could build a better future together. I’m deeply honored and I’m ready to fight for our community in Congress”
“Working families across this district deserve a representative who will finally put them first. That’s what I have spent my career doing as a prosecutor – protecting this community, standing up for victims and holding bad actors accountable.”
“in places that Democrats won't knock, and I've learned a lot about what I think our community actually cares about”
“No corporate PAC money. Not one cent.”
Show all 12 statementsShow fewer
“I will raise every dollar from people, not corporations. It's slower. It's harder. But it's honest.”
“I grew up here. I'm raising my family here. I am loyal to my soil, and I am only pledging my allegiance to the Constitution and to the people in this district.”
“I'm running for Congress to SERVE the people of Michigan's 10th District. I'm not running to please lobbyists, CEOs, or corporate boards trying to buy favor and influence.”
“I won't take ANY corporate PAC money — not now, not ever.”
“Take it from a working mom running for Congress: our political system is broken - and it's broken on purpose.”
“We need people in Washington that we can trust, and I spent my whole life trying to fight for others and to fight for my community, and I’m hoping that I can be a trustworthy person in Congress”
