Making health care affordable is personal to me: without insurance, my breast cancer surgery would have cost $100K. That's outrageous.

Tom Barrett's votes have raised insurance costs for everyone. We need to fix our broken health care system. That starts w/ flipping MI07.

Having led the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine during three years of Putin’s full-scale invasion, it’s an unprecedented failure to warn Americans and drawdown embassies AFTER U.S. military operations.

Trump’s war in Iran has resulted in 6 U.S. service members killed, drone strikes on our Embassy in Saudi Arabia & Consulate in Dubai, and the stranding of thousands of Americans across the Middle East.

The message from our Embassies to American citizens: you're on your own.

We've knocked thousands of doors already this year, and what we keep hearing is that folks just want a representative who will do what is right for our community, no matter what.

This shouldn't even be a political issue. But Tom Barrett keeps voting against MI07's interests.

Fed up with broken promises, high prices, and attacks on healthcare. People want action.

I'm running for Congress to hold Trump and his administration accountable for the damage they are doing at home and abroad. We need leaders who have a proven track record of doing this.

I've stood up to Trump before, and I'll do it again on behalf of our community in MI07.

Trustee Jim Brinker is a dedicated public servant working to improve the lives of Williamstown Township residents and a steadfast union leader. As a third-generation union member, I'm honored to have his endorsement in our campaign to defeat Tom Barrett and flip MI07!

We need Congress to assert its constitutional power to declare when our nation goes to war β€” or authorizes force β€” to protect our service members as well American citizens at home and abroad.

But launching a war without a justification, strategy, or endgame appears to be a blatant attempt to distract from problems at home: rising prices and the lack of affordable health care.

The Iranian regime is the world’s #1 sponsor of terrorism. As a leader of U.S. Embassies overseas, I’ve personally had to counter the threat of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to Americans abroad.

The last thing we need right now is another forever war β€”Β a war of choice β€” one that has now cost the lives of four brave members of our military.Β There is no clear strategic objective or clear evidence of an imminent threat.

So honored to have Eaton County Commissioner Jane Whitacre's endorsement for our campaign to flip MI07. Commissioner Whitacre has served the people of Delta Twp, and all of Eaton County, for 13 years and counting. I look forward to working with her to deliver for our community.

Honored to attend Governor Whitmer's final State of the State Address as State Rep. @juliebrixie.bsky.social's guest!

DC Republicans are failing us: ripping health care & food assistance from thousands in our district. Our state leaders are fighting back. I'm running for MI07 to join this fight.

We need leaders who will meet the moment, stand up for what’s right, and deliver results. That’s what I did for 28 years as a U.S. Foreign Service officer, and that is what I’ll do in Congress. We need to clean up Washington & focus on making life easier for working families.

What we didn’t hear in the SOTU:

While Trump & his family made $4B since his reelection, families in mid-Michigan face higher costs, loss of healthcare, and uncertain futures.

Trump may be β€œwinning” thanks to enablers like Tom Barrett, but working families are paying for it.

With the State of the Union tonight, it's clear: Trump's policies are hurting working families right here in mid-Michigan.

Tonight he's going tell us this isn't true. And DC Republicans like Tom Barrett will stand and applaud.

We deserve better.

It is in our vital national security interest to stand with Ukraine. This war is about much more than Ukraine. If Putin wins, so do his enablers: Iran, North Korea, and China.

On the 4th anniversary of Putin's brutal invasion of Ukraine, we must remember:

- Freedom is not free;
- We must show leadership in the face of aggression, not weakness or complicity;
- When America doesn’t lead with our values, we risk our success as a nation.

Huge congratulations to the incredible Michigan athletes who made our state and nation proud in the Winter Olympics, bringing home gold in men’s & women’s hockey, mixed team aerials, and team figure skating; silver in ice dancing; & bronze in the 2-woman bobsled! πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ₯‡πŸ₯ˆπŸ₯‰

Great to knock doors this weekend in Okemos!

It may be cold, but the stakes are just too high. We need to fix our broken health care system, build an economy that works for everyone, and defend our rights & freedoms. That's what I'll do in Congress β€” Tom Barrett sure isn't.

Great crowd at our East Lansing coffee hour!

Fantastic conversation about urgent issues including fixing our broken health care system to rooting out corruption. Together we’re going to beat Tom Barrett & the DC special interests backing him. Join us at BridgetBrink.com!

Supreme Court strikes down Trump’s sweeping tariffs, upending central plank of economic agenda The Supreme Court has struck down President Donald Trump’s far-reaching global tariffs, handing him a significant loss on an issue crucial to his economic agenda.

A clear & decisive win for the working families of mid-Michigan.

Tom Barrett repeatedly voted for Trump’s reckless & unconstitutional tariffs that hurt our farmers, small businesses & families.

I'm running to fight for the hardworking people of MI07. No matter what.

"In 2018, facing a daunting 23-seat deficit, Democratic women didn't just compete β€” they delivered the majority." Including right here in mid-Michigan. With so much at stake, we're going to do exactly the same in MI07 in 2026. Proud to be part of EMILYs List’s Mission Majority.

I proudly served our country for nearly 30 years under 5 presidents, both Democratic and Republican. But I knew I had to resign and speak out when Trump kept appeasing Putin.

Appeasing dictators never achieves long term peace. And it is just not who we are.

What I wrote last year in the @freep.com remains true today: We must show leadership in the face of aggression, not weakness or complicity. When America does not lead the free world, what is at risk is our own success as a nation. www.freep.com/story/opinio...

Trump continues pressuring Ukraine, saying this week β€œUkraine better come to the table fast, that's all I'm telling you.” And appeasing Russia.

This threatens our national security & goes against our values. We must stand strong against aggressors & stand w/the fight for freedom.
