Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers is making a strong case for change in America, emphasizing the need for a fresh direction in Washington. He’s drawing attention to a recent Fox News poll that reveals a significant desire for ‘major change’ among Michigan residents, a sentiment that resonates deeply with Rogers.
Rogers, who is running against Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin, paints a picture of a Michigan struggling under the weight of economic hardship. He blames the Biden administration, particularly Vice President Kamala Harris, for the high gas and grocery prices that are squeezing families across the state.
‘These skyrocketing costs have made the most expensive vehicle to drive your grocery cart,’ Rogers asserts, highlighting the pain felt by working families struggling to make ends meet. He cites the rising costs of energy, auto insurance, and rent, which he argues have left Michiganders feeling the pressure of paycheck-to-paycheck living.
Rogers, a former Republican representative, warns that the economic woes are not just affecting individual households but also threatening the future of Michigan’s economy. He expresses concern about the outsourcing of auto jobs to China due to the Biden administration’s push for electric vehicles (EVs). He points out that EVs require significantly less labor to produce, a factor that could lead to job losses in the state known as the ‘Motor City.’
He criticizes the Democratic Party’s stance on EVs, accusing them of prioritizing the mandate over the livelihoods of auto workers. He cites examples of job losses at Stellantis and GM as evidence of the consequences of the EV policy.
Rogers’ concerns extend beyond the economy. He addresses the fentanyl crisis, highlighting the devastating impact on families who have lost loved ones to the drug. He blames the Biden administration’s immigration policies for fueling the crisis, arguing that their decision to dismantle Trump-era border security measures has allowed dangerous drugs, including fentanyl, to flow freely into the country.
Rogers emphasizes the need for strong leadership in Washington to address these challenges. He lays out a plan to cut government spending, promote energy independence, and provide relief to families by expanding the child tax credit. He also vows to protect Michigan’s auto industry by eliminating the EV mandate and fighting unfair foreign trade practices.
On the issue of immigration, Rogers prioritizes border security, pledging to reinstate the ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy and complete the border wall. He believes these measures are crucial to prevent illegal immigration and keep fentanyl out of American communities.
Rogers concludes with a message of hope, assuring his constituents that he will fight for their interests and work to restore America’s strength and prosperity. He believes that by working together, Americans can ‘Get America Back on Track.’
