Gretchen Whitmer: “I’ll work with anyone who’s serious about getting things done. But I’ll never compromise on what I believe.”

I’ve been in contact with Mayor Hammoud, and I echo Chief Shahin and local officials: Do not confront or engage with demonstrators. Together, we stand united against hate in all its forms.

During my eight years as governor, we’ve faced tough challenges. But my north star has always been to get stuff done for Michigan. I know that’s Haley Stevens’ guiding light too, which is why I am so proud to endorse her for U.S. Senate.

We've heard stories from across our great state and as your Governor, I continue to be inspired and motivated to serve all Michiganders.

We just have to believe in each other, and believe in Michigan.
