You should not be criminalized for a disease. That is absolutely wrong. It’s hateful. It’s discriminatory, and we can, as a state, do better. You can count on me for that.

I’ll fight to ensure every Michigander can live without discrimination and never have to wonder whether their rights will still be there tomorrow.
