Vice President Kamala Harris is running for president and has selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to serve as her vice president. Between them, Harris and Walz have a wealth of executive and legislative experience, and both have demonstrated a firm commitment to protecting our freedoms and fighting for a brighter future for all Americans.

Before serving as vice president, Kamala Harris was California’s Attorney General and served in the U.S. Senate. Tim Walz spent 24 years in the US Military before his professional career as a teacher and coach, before serving six terms in Congress and one full term as governor of Minnesota.

Harris and Walz’s vision for America centers on protecting the rights and freedoms of people across the country and fighting back against the attacks MAGA Republicans have launched on abortion access, LGBTQ+ equality, voting rights, and racial justice. They also aim to foster an economic environment where everyone can thrive, not just corporations and the wealthy, protect our environment from corporate polluters, and enact common-sense gun violence prevention laws to make us all safer.

Harris and Walz have been endorsed by the following progressive partner organizations: Clean Water Action, Emgage Action, Michigan AFL-CIO, Michigan Education Association, Michigan United Action, MI Poder, Planned Parenthood Action Fund, and Sierra Club - Michigan.

Vice President Harris’s opponent in this race is former president Donald Trump, a con man whose time in the White House was characterized by chaos, bigotry, and a focus on taking care of himself and his wealthy friends. Trump has selected Ohio Senator J.D. Vance to be his running mate. Vance has limited experience in governing and has followed Trump’s lead in spreading harmful racist, sexist, and anti-LGBTQ+ propaganda.

Rep. Elissa Slotkin, who has represented Michigan for three terms in Congress as a member of the House of Representatives, is running this year for her first term representing Michigan in the U.S. Senate.

Rep. Slotkin spent much of her career working on national security issues for the federal government. After losing her mother to cancer and witnessing firsthand the way families dealing with a serious illness must also navigate tremendous financial stress, she decided to run for Congress and work toward a more just healthcare system.

In addition to taking on big pharma and insurance companies, Rep. Slotkin’s policy priorities include creating safer communities via gun violence prevention laws, protecting abortion rights, reducing inequality and ensuring all families have what they need to thrive, and defending our democracy and voting rights.

Rep. Slotkin has been endorsed by the following progressive partner organizations: American Federation of Teachers - Michigan, Michigan AFL-CIO, Michigan Association for Justice, Michigan Education Association, Michigan United Action, MI Poder, Planned Parenthood Action Fund, Sierra Club - Michigan.

Rep. Slotkin’s opponent is Mike Rogers, a Trump-endorsed candidate who shares many of the former president’s priorities, including harsh, authoritarian immigration and policing policies, criminalizing abortion, and supporting corporations over everyday Americans.

Corte Suprema

Two seats on the Michigan Supreme Court are up for grabs this year, and we recommend incumbent Justice Kyra Harris Bolden for the partial term and Kimberly Ann Thomas for the full term. Both Justice Bolden and Thomas were nominated by the Michigan Democratic Party. Note: The Michigan Supreme Court race is found on the non-partisan section of the ballot.

Justice Kyra Harris Bolden and Kimberly Ann Thomas have been endorsed by the following progressive partner organizations: American Federation of Teachers - Michigan, Clean Water Action, Equality Michigan Action Network, Michigan AFL-CIO, Michigan Association for Justice, Michigan Education Association, Michigan League of Conservation Voters, Michigan United Action, MI Poder, Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan, and Service Employees International Union - Michigan.

Kimberly Ann Thomas is a law professor at the University of Michigan Law School, where she directs the Juvenile Justice Clinic, representing low-income individuals who otherwise would not have access to legal support. Her deep commitment to justice is rooted in her career teaching future lawyers about ethical practices and fighting for fairness for all. As a candidate for the Michigan Supreme Court, Thomas brings a dedication to integrity, compassion, and reform, particularly for underserved communities.

Her leadership on the bipartisan Michigan Task Force on Juvenile Justice Reform stands out as a key part of her career. Using a data-driven approach, she championed meaningful reforms to the state’s juvenile justice system, addressing systemic inequities. Kimberly Thomas believes in equal justice and representation for all citizens, regardless of background or financial means. Her experience gives her a vision for a more just Michigan, where everyone has the right to fair representation and access to the courts.

Thomas is running against Andrew Fink, who has a background as Republican state representative and is a candidate aligned with the ultra-conservative Federalist Society, known for backing judges like Amy Coney Barrett and Brett M. Kavanaugh, and the decisions that have led to the reversal of Roe v. Wade. Fink holds extreme views that go beyond reproductive rights. His record includes opposition to marriage equality and protections under the Civil Rights Act of 1968. Fink has also consistently voted against expanding voting rights, including laws aimed at easing voter registration, preventing poll worker intimidation, regulating deceptive political ads, and ensuring election integrity. Fink is endorsed by a huge lineup of Michigan's far-right, conservative lawmakers, including those who pushed conspiracy theories about our elections.

Fink’s stance is sharply contrasted by Thomas, who has fought for inclusive, accessible justice. His resistance to funding measures that would help implement voter-approved amendments expanding early voting and his votes against enhancing the election certification process further illustrate his radical agenda.

Kimberly Ann Thomas is the most progressive choice in the race against Fink for the full term on the court.

Justice Kyra Harris Bolden made history as the first Black woman appointed to the Michigan Supreme Court by Governor Gretchen Whitmer, replacing Bridget Mary McCormack. Justice Bolden is committed to protecting equal justice, expanding access to justice, and upholding the rule of law. In her second year on the court, she has authored three majority opinions, including one unanimous decision. Her approach centers on ensuring that all citizens—regardless of their gender, race, or background—receive fair and equal treatment under the law.

Justice Bolden started her career as a criminal defense and civil litigation attorney before being elected to the Michigan House of Representatives, where she served two terms. During her tenure, she championed criminal justice reform and passed five bipartisan bills to protect survivors of sexual violence.

Justice Bolden brings a vital perspective to the Michigan Supreme Court through her diverse life experiences and deep engagement with the criminal justice system. As the first Black woman to serve on the state's highest court, she represents a much-needed voice for communities that have been historically marginalized in the legal system. Her background as a criminal defense attorney, civil litigator, and legislator allows her to understand the complexities of law from multiple angles, particularly the disproportionate impacts of the system on vulnerable populations.

Bolden’s opponent, Patrick William O’Grady is the Michigan Republican Party nominee and is endorsed by Donald Trump, whose choice of justices at the federal level led to the overturning of Roe v. Wade. O’Grady is endorsed by far-right, fringe figures such as Ted Nugent and Larry Arnn, the president of Hillsdale College.

Justice Kyra Harris Bolden is the most progressive choice in the race against O’Grady to fill a partial term on the court.
