LANSING — After Trump concluded his address to a joint session of Congress, Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin spoke to Americans and Michiganders alike about a better vision for the country. With the conclusion of her remarks, Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party Curtis Hertel released the following statement:
“On Mar 4th night, Senator Elissa Slotkin offered an inspiring vision for the country in the face of a presidency that is tanking our economy and threatening our national security. In this unprecedented moment, Senator Slotkin is helping chart a way forward that puts working-class Americans front and center. She doesn’t just stand by — she stands up, speaks out, and fights for us all.
“Senator Slotkin leveled with the American people and reminded us what leadership looks like. While Trump fails Michiganders again and again, Michigan Democrats like Senator Slotkin will continue to be a model of leadership, fighting for a brighter future for all.”
