Whitmer's Sister Launches Congressional Bid in NY.

Liz Gereghty, the sister of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, has announced her candidacy for a U.S. House seat in New York's 17th congressional district. Gereghty, a Democrat, is a small business owner and member of her local school board. She cited reproductive rights, gun violence, and the cost of living as major issues in her platform. The seat is expected to be a target for Democrats heading into 2024, and Gereghty may face primary opponents, including former congressman Mondaire Jones.
