Michigan Senate Hopeful Keeps Affordability Front and Center Amid Bipartisan Scrutiny

Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan keeps his affordability message front and center as scrutiny from both sides intensifies.

Despite internal Democratic tensions over his association with Piker, El-Sayed returns to cost of living, groceries, healthcare, and Medicare for All as the campaign’s unifying focus, stressing that money in politics must come out and policies should put Michiganders first.
