STATEMENT: On This Independence Day, Dems Fight for Freedom While MAGA MIGOP Tear Down Democracy

On the holiday celebrating our forefathers' first foray for freedom, Chair Barnes highlights the stark contrast between Michigan Dems and MAGA MIGOP

LANSING - On the 4th of July holiday, Chair of the Michigan Democratic Party Lavora Barnes released the following statement to highlight the freedoms at stake this November:

"This election, at its core, is about our freedoms as Americans. It's about what kind of future we want for our country: one where our fundamental freedoms are protected or one where Trump and his MAGA agenda rip them away. At the end of the day, Trump and his MAGA cronies want total control - over our bodies to take away reproductive freedom, over our economy to give billionaires more power and the middle class less, and over our democracy so that they can choose who wins.

"Republicans don't care about our most basic rights, and they certainly don't care about Michiganders and our families. Time and time again, Trump has incited violence, created chaos, and attempted to drag us back decades - we can't let that happen again. This Independence Day is a reminder that we must send President Biden and Vice President Harris back to the White House to continue protecting our freedom and building a brighter future with Democrats up and down the ballot."
