Jocelyn Benson: A Steady, Experienced Leader You Can Trust

While Michigan Democratic legislators have been busy passing common sense gun violence prevention laws, securing record school funding and free lunches for all K-12 students, and expanding the Working Families Tax Credit, Jocelyn Benson has been hard at work in the Secretary of State’s office.

In her two terms as Secretary of State, Jocelyn Benson has consistently defended our voting rights against federal overreach and worked to modernize SOS services, reducing in-person wait times and making more services than ever available online. Her steady, confident leadership is exactly what we need to combat the chaos and lawlessness of the Trump administration.

When Trump demanded she hand over Michigan’s voter rolls, she said absolutely not—and when the Trump administration sued her, she fought back and won. Now, she’s standing up yet again, this time to defend the right to vote by mail, which Trump wants to rip away even though Michigan voters overwhelmingly approved adding it to our state constitution in 2018.

Now, she’s focusing on policies that will build on the progress made under the Democratic trifecta and make life more affordable for working families.
