I’m running for Governor to address the issues that matter most. From affordable housing to education, we need to keep fighting until every Michigander can find their dream of health and wealth right here in Michigan.

An attack on unions is an attack on working families, plain and simple.

Chaotic tariffs only accomplish one thing—chaos. Michigan jobs lost, back to school shopping more expensive, and Michiganders put last instead of first. I break it all down on @TheLeadCNN with @jaketapper👇🏾

Working people are paying more while billionaires are getting another tax break. That's not an accident. That's a choice. We need leaders who will make different ones.

Educators don’t just teach, they build futures. If we want a stronger Michigan, it starts by fully funding education and standing with the people who show up for our kids every day. Always a great time with MEA Local 1!

I’m honored to have the support of these local leaders who are delivering for their communities every day—putting people over profits and fighting to address kitchen table issues. Together, we’re building a Michigan where everyone can stay and succeed.

Trump is coming after your job, your health care, and our future with these tariffs. I’m running for Governor to lower costs—and to stand tall against anyone who threatens Michigan jobs.

Gilchrist: These tariffs haven’t discriminated—whether you voted for Trump or not, the damage is hitting communities, workers, and families all across Michigan. Your Medicaid is being gutted, and it doesn’t matter if you’re a Democrat or a Republican—you’re losing your health

Gerrymandering Black & Brown communities is racism. We need to do everything we can to stand tall to protect everyone’s voice.

The system is broken, and Trump copycats like John James are exploiting our fears. Blaming immigrants, Black folks, women, the LGBTQ+ community, all while they protect predators like Epstein and giving billionaires a tax break. Enough is enough—it’s time to fix the system.

No one should be in debt because they get sick or hurt. Corporate billionaires are getting a tax break while our grandparents are getting priced out of their life-saving prescriptions. It’s past time to make the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share.

700,000 Michiganders are at risk of losing their health care coverage because of Trump. Right here in #MI10, your Rep. John James voted for this bill. Voting directly against the 60,200 children who are covered by Medicaid in his district.

Trump's cuts to Medicaid mean care centers will close down, costs for care will go up, and the ones we love will suffer. The Macomb-Oakland Hospital, right down the road from this town hall, might have to close its doors. People are going to feel these cuts.

It’s heartbreaking how these cuts are going to affect our veterans. 41,000 veterans receive SNAP benefits and are at risk of facing food insecurities as a result of John James' actions.

Here in #MI10 for a town hall in John James’ backyard…we’ll see if he shows up after voting to gut Medicaid. Follow along 🧵👇
