Protect Access to Reproductive and Transgender Healthcare

Do everything in your power to protect access to reproductive and transgender healthcare in this state. Providers are under threat — one in four have faced online, phone, or workplace harassment according to a 2025 UCLA Williams Institute report — and patients traveling across state lines for care d

Block Anti-Trans Ballot Initiatives Targeting Minority Rights

A person's existence isn't up for debate, and a majority shouldn't get to vote on a minority group's rights. The coordinated push to put anti-trans restrictions on ballots in Colorado, Washington, Maine, and Missouri isn't grassroots democracy — it's the same 2004 playbook used to strip same-sex cou

Protect Trans Americans From Persecution — No One Should Have to Flee

Trans Americans are applying for emergency Canadian citizenship certificates in as little as two weeks because they fear for their safety here at home. That is not a statistic to skim past. People are activating foreign immigration law to escape conditions in their own country, and the fact that Can

Ban Conversion Therapy — Follow Colorado's Lead

Colorado just showed every state in the country how to get this done. After the Supreme Court struck down the original ban in Chiles v. Salazar on First Amendment grounds, Colorado legislators rewrote the law — viewpoint-neutral language and all — and passed House Bill 26-1322 on May 7th. The Court'

Halt all federal tax payments

Republicans have succeeded in their unprecedented mid decade gerrymandering. They will win this fall. Democrats need to move to a new strategy. All blue states must halt all federal tax payments. Trump and Republicans have been doing this already. Enough is enough! Blue states overwhelmingly fund th

Stop the Planned Arrests and Violence Against Minority Communities

You must publicly oppose and work to stop any administration plans to arrest and target minority groups. What you're describing is ethnic cleansing, and silence from elected officials enables it. History shows us where this leads. Targeted arrests of specific ethnic or religious groups are never ab

Trans Rights Are Human Rights, Not "Ballot Candy"

I'm asking you to publicly oppose any anti-transgender ballot measures in our state and call out the cynical strategy behind them. These initiatives aren't about protecting anyone. They're what Republican strategists openly call "ballot candy"—designed solely to drive partisan turnout in competitive

Reject Mass Surveillance Through Flock and License Plate Readers

I'm asking you to oppose the expansion of Flock and other mass surveillance license plate reader systems in our communities. Constant surveillance is government overreach, and these systems track every law-abiding resident's movements without cause or oversight. More than 180 Michigan law enforceme

Trans People Lead the Fight Against Sexual Violence

I need you to oppose any legislation or policy that scapegoats transgender people as perpetrators of sexual violence. The facts show the opposite: trans and gender-nonconforming people are disproportionately likely to face sexual violence, and they have been leading the fight against it for over 150

Investigate Torture Conditions at North Lake Processing Center

I need you to investigate the torture conditions at North Lake Processing Center in Baldwin and take immediate action to shut it down. Torture is illegal in Michigan under state law and violates the Eighth Amendment. Sleep deprivation is torture. Lights are only off from midnight to 5:00 am, and gua

Eliminate Electoral College

I am writing to express my strong support for the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC). Our current system of electing the President is outdated, and it is time we ensure that every American’s vote carries equal weight, regardless of the state in which they live. Under the current winner

Support and Pass SB46 in the House

I'm asking you to support and vote yes on SB46 when it comes before the House. This bill has already passed the Senate, demonstrating bipartisan momentum. The House should continue that progress and send it forward. I believe SB46 addresses an important issue that affects our community, and it dese

Condemn Frank Liberati's Transphobic Attack on Joanna Whaley

I'm calling on you to publicly condemn Frank Liberati's attempt to disqualify Joanna Whaley from Michigan's District 2 Democratic primary ballot. His complaint demanding she use her deadname is a blatant act of transphobia weaponized as an electoral tactic, and it has no place in our party. Liberat

Shut Down North Lake Concentration Camp Immediately

Michigan houses one of the largest concentration camps in the country. I'm calling on you to shut down the North Lake Processing Center in Baldwin immediately. Hundreds of men began a hunger strike on April 20 to protest sleep deprivation, inedible food, and denial of due process. Lights are only o

Support Michigan Ratepayer Bill of Rights

Michigan households and businesses pay the highest energy rates in the Midwest with the longest time out of power in the country. Monopoly utility companies DTE and Consumers Energy rake in record profits, raise our rates by hundreds of millions of dollars every year and hand out massive CEO bonus

URGENT: National Demand for Parental Sovereignty

"I am writing to my Federal and State representatives to demand an immediate end to the unconstitutional monitoring of homeschooling families. We are not 'co-parenting' with the government, and we are not 'co-habitating' with federal or state agencies. The Supreme Court has consistently upheld the r

URGENT: National Demand for Accountability&Medical Rape and Police Negligence

"I am calling for the 'National Medical Patient Protection Act' to end the crisis of patients being raped while under sedation. In Miami, a survivor with a positive forensic kit was abandoned by police. This negligence is a violation of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) and basic civil rights. W

Stop Racial Gerrymandering and Restore the Voting Rights Act

Racial gerrymandering is a direct assault on our democracy that systematically silences Black communities. By 'cracking' communities across multiple districts or 'packing' them into a single one, partisan map-makers are making it impossible for minority voters to elect candidates of their choice.

Champion Colorado's Conversion Therapy Model Nationwide

Pass legislation modeled on Colorado's HB26-1322 in our state. After the Supreme Court gutted conversion therapy bans in Chiles v. Salazar, Colorado's private right of action approach is the only constitutional path forward to protect LGBTQ+ youth from this torture. The model is smart law. It allow

Election of state officials

I’m concerned that we have so many non republicans running for the office of governor that this could actually increase the likelihood of a republican governor. I think it’s time for non-republicans to look at what is the end goal, if it’s not to have a republican governor then they need to decide w

Pass State Protections for LGBTQ+ People in Homeless Shelters

I'm asking you to introduce and pass state legislation that protects LGBTQ+ people from discrimination in homeless shelters and emergency housing programs. The federal government just proposed a rule that would strip gender identity and sexual orientation protections from HUD-funded shelters, and it

Speak Up Against Anti-Trans Legislation

I'm calling on you to publicly oppose the wave of anti-trans bills moving through state legislatures nationwide and to work to block any similar legislation in our state. These bills represent targeted discrimination that will harm real people in our communities. Across the country, legislators are

Protect the First Amendment from NSPM-7 Overreach

I am writing to urge you to investigate and oppose the implementation of National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7), specifically the creation of the "NSPM-7 Joint Mission Center." While the stated goal of NSPM-7 is countering domestic terrorism, its broad language regarding "indicia" of r

Support Protections for School Officials Who Defend Trans Students

I need you to support legislation that protects school officials from retaliation when they show basic empathy toward trans students facing harassment. Dr. Chet Hesson, an athletic director in Monroe County, was suspended for four months simply for saying his heart went out to a student athlete dea

Support Gender-Affirming Care Access After Kennedy Declaration Ruling

I'm asking you to publicly support access to gender-affirming care for transgender youth and oppose any federal attempts to restrict it following the recent court ruling against Secretary Kennedy's unlawful declaration. On April 18, U.S. District Judge Mustafa T. Kasubhai struck down Kennedy's Dece

House Bill 4765 Is A Poll Tac

I understand the Michigan House passed House Bill 4765, a poll tax on Michigan voters. This bill is a solution to a non-existent problem. There were 16 examples of non-citizens attempting to vote in 2025, or 0.00028% of Michigan's total voting population. Children suffering from lack of food make u

Support Suspect Class Designation for Transgender People

I'm calling on you to support designating transgender people as a suspect class under equal protection law. This legal standard is the right approach and deserves your vocal backing. The reasoning is straightforward. When cisgender people can update identity documents to match their gender identity
