Bringing the jobs of tomorrow to Michigan and protecting our environment can and must go hand in hand. Michigan has an opportunity to get this right. Let’s lead the nation in showing we can be pro-growth, pro-water, and pro-labor.

Team Benson is getting stronger every day! I’m grateful to welcome my good friend, State Rep. and Legislative Black Caucus Chair Amos O’Neal, to our winning coalition. I’m so proud to have him with us as we build a people-powered movement for a stronger, more affordable Michigan. Let’s get it done!
West Michigan is lucky to have @hillaryscholten.bsky.social fighting for them in Congress, and I’m lucky to have her on Team Benson. Let’s go win!
I love being out on the trail and meeting the people I do this work for. Michigan, you’re the reason💙
At the Bowen Senior Center in Pontiac, I met older Michiganders, parents, and grandparents who want our state to work for everyone.
Governors are the guardrails for our rights and our freedoms. They’re the leaders who set the direction for our state, lower costs, and expand real economic opportunity so more people can access well-paying jobs. That’s what I’ve done as Secretary of State, and it’s what I’ll do as governor.
In this moment, governors are the guardrails against election deniers who want to rip away our access to the ballot box. I’ve stood up for Michigan citizens as Secretary of State, and I’ll stand up to anyone — even the President — to protect your voices and votes as governor.
Every marathon I run reminds me that if we put one foot in front of the other, we’re capable of more than we ever thought possible. That’s exactly how I’m running this campaign: one conversation after another and one city at a time as we build momentum to make Michigan the best place to call home.
No Donald Trump, you can’t seize our ballots or have access to voters’ private data. Not on my watch.
The only thing the SAVE Act will do is make it harder for American citizens to vote. Period. Michigan’s elections are among the most secure and accessible in the country. Let’s keep it that way.
Democrats were out in force this weekend! The highest-attended MDP convention in history brought together folks from across the state hungry for leadership that will drive down costs, grow our economy, and protect our democracy. So let’s get it done!
David Eby: "This country cannot work if separatists, separatist premiers, others get all of the attention of the federal government. And those provinces where we're standing squarely behind Canada, where we're fighting for Canada -- we're left out of the discussion."

To combat gerrymandering, fight fire with fire. The Virginia Supreme Court struck down the citizen initiative for a new Congressional map. The legislature can fight back. Here I describe Quinn Yeargin's idea to use the state constitution to retire that court:
Yesterday I had the privilege of receiving an endorsement from @andrew-yang.bsky.social- the countdown until June 2nd begins. Learn more about how to get involved with my campaign at SamForNJ.org!
I met with parents who have lost their kids to fentanyl, gun violence, as well as from the influence of social media, to hear their stories and their thoughts on how we can make sure this doesn’t happen to more young people. I’ll fight to make CO a safer place for all. #Philforgovernor #COpolitics

Anger lies. It tells you things are bigger than they are. A late text feels like contempt. A tone feels like an attack. Ask one question when heated. "Will this matter in 7 days?" Most of the time, no. Peer support, not therapy. Call 988 in crisis. #angermanagement #peersupport
For decades, presidents of both parties have followed a clear rule: the U.S. does not consult Beijing on arms sales to Taiwan. President Trump appears ready to break with that approach. Weakening deterrence invites aggression — and risks war.

Big corporations have way too much power in America today, and the President has doubled down on it by filling up their coffers and giving them a seat at the table in decisions of war and peace. This is an outrage, and in Congress I’m working to bring the power back where it belongs: We the People.

NEW PODCAST - Cyber Insurance Blind Spots Only 15% of successful cyber attacks ever become public. The other 85% are absorbed quietly: ransomware payments, data exfiltrations, and business interruptions, often at the direct request of the breached organization. That silence has a cost.

Don’t let these MAGA influencers lie to you or distract you. President Trump’s big ugly bill is taking healthcare away from millions while he uses his DOJ to target his enemies. We see MAGA influencers and politicians will justify anything Trump does to stay in the good graces of Dear Leader.
