Honored to be marching across the Edmund Pettus Bridge today in Selma to commemorate 59 years since our heroic leaders marched for voting rights. Today, we march in their honor and to continue their work that still must be done. May we keep marching forward! #Selma59

As a mom, I know there’s nothing more important than making sure our kids have every chance to succeed. That’s why as Governor, I’ll get to work on day one building world-class schools, supporting our teachers, and making Michigan the best place in America to raise our children.

A few months ago, Mary in Detroit told me about her dad, who paid his health insurance premiums his whole life. He’d recently survived a heart attack — but after his insurance company declined to cover his follow-up care, he passed away. As governor, I will hold insurance companies accountable when they deny life saving care. For Mary’s family. For all of us.

I’m running to be Governor of Michigan to ensure everyone gets a fair shot. I'm a mom, military spouse, educator — and Michigan’s Secretary of State. I’ve never backed down from a tough fight or hard work. And I know together we can build the future Michiganders deserve.

When former President Trump, Speaker Johnson, and others call for states to do things we are already doing or ban things that are already banned, they aren’t actually trying to support election integrity. They are promoting election malfeasance. Why? Because they want to scare you. They want to diminish your confidence in valid election results so that they can try to block those valid election results if they don’t like them. But here’s the truth. Every professional election official across the country is continuing our work to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat, ensure only those legally registered are voting, and protecting the election process from nefarious interference from bad actors — both foreign and domestic. Our goal is to, transparently and honestly, make sure every citizen has rightly placed faith in their voice, their vote, and in democracy. So in the months ahead, I encourage you to seek out, trusted information from election officials and professional administrators, who only have your best interest in mind. Help us debunk misinformation wherever it comes from. Because that’s how we actually protect the integrity of our elections! #teamdemocracy

Friday fact: only U.S. Citizens vote in U.S. elections. Lots of politicians are wrongly trying to make you think otherwise. Here’s the truth. #teamdemocracy

I’m not going to Lansing as governor as a party of one. I’m going in there with a team, and I want the UAW with me to ensure Michigan leads the nation in pro-worker, pro-labor laws.

You shouldn't have to stress every time you pull up to the gas pump. Michigan families deserve relief — and a governor laser-focused on lowering costs. Buckle up. We’re driving toward something better. 🚗

In a broken system, utility companies get more profits while you get a higher bill. I'm running for governor to fix that system and bring your electricity costs down.

I’ve spent nearly eight years as Secretary of State proving we can make government deliver for Michiganders. As governor, I’ll bring that same focus because our kids deserve a Michigan that works for them.

Time to rein in utility rate hikes, invest in clean energy, and stop letting power companies pass costs onto the people who can least afford it.
