Mike Rogers, GOP candidate for Senate in Michigan, joins Clay & Buck straight from yesterday’s shocking endorsement. Congresswoman Haley Stevens, Abdul El-Sayed’s opponent in the Democratic primary, crossed party lines to say vote Republican in this race.

I’m honored to earn Congresswoman Stevens’ endorsement and her vote.

After Congresswoman Stevens endorsed Abdul El-Sayed, he had every opportunity to welcome her into his campaign. Instead of moving beyond the anger and dismissiveness he showed her in the Primary, he leaned in and continued to run a campaign based on hate.

Congresswoman Stevens showed courage and bravery in putting Michigan first. She spent her career in Congress delivering for Michiganders, and her decision to support our campaign is no different. We agree on our love of Country, supporting minority businesses, investing in Michigan’s future, fixing Michigan’s crippling education system, and putting Michiganders first.

As a lifelong Democrat known for her bipartisan work, the Congresswoman understands that Michigan is a purple state. It is the soul of our nation, and I would be honored to earn support from Democrats across Michigan who believe in saving Michigan – from our education crisis to our sky high prices and depleted housing market. Our kids deserve to grow up in the same Michigan we did, and they deserve to raise their families here too.

I’m grateful for her support, and I look forward to continuing our partnership when I am in the U.S. Senate.
