Welcome to Mike’s Monday Minute! Check out what’s been happening over the last week on the campaign trail:
Two Detroit police officers were threatened with termination and are suspended without pay for cooperating with federal law enforcement to protect public safety. Instead of standing with officers who were doing their jobs, city leaders chose to punish them. I started a GoFundMe to help these officers fight back, cover legal costs, and support their families during this time. 100% of the funds raised will go directly to the officers and their families.
I enjoyed meeting with the Livingston County GOP for a thoughtful discussion on improving education, cutting overregulation, and making Michigan competitive again. Voters want practical leadership that delivers results.
Almost one year into my campaign for Governor, I am still the only candidate who has pledged to eliminate the income tax and also signed the ATR Taxpayer Protection Pledge to veto ALL tax increases. We’re going to make Michigan affordable again.
I visited Brilliant Detroit’s Webb Street hub to see how they are addressing Michigan’s literacy crisis. Their neighborhood model helps young children and parents build strong foundations in reading, health, and learning.
Governor Whitmer’s budget will cost Michiganders about $3,000 more per person while funding programs with little accountability. Michigan families deserve responsible spending. As governor, I will cut waste and protect taxpayer dollars.
I met with metro Detroit small business owners about state regulations that make hiring harder. I also toured Allegra Printing in Plymouth, where innovation and workforce training support more than 100 local jobs. Michigan businesses need less red tape and stronger leadership.
It was great to join grassroots leaders in Standish for the Arenac County Lincoln Day gathering on President’s Day. Encouraging to see so many committed to advancing conservative leadership in Michigan.
Congratulations to Michigan’s Jack Hughes and Zach Werenski on bringing home gold for the first time in 46 years! These two, the 4 other Michiganders, and all of Team USA made us proud!
Michigan’s future will be decided in 2026, and our campaign is gaining real momentum. Voters are ready for change, stronger leadership, and accountability in Lansing. We are building a focused statewide effort to restore trust, deliver results, and put Michigan back on the right track.
If you are ready to help fight for change and hold government accountable, chip in today.
