I'm looking forward to Sen. Elissa Slotkin.

◦ In 2024, Slotkin said she supported federal legislation to codify the abortion rights established in Roe v. Wade.

◦ In 2022, she co-sponsored the Ban Corporate PACs Act, which, if enacted, would prevent corporations from operating a political action committee.

◦ In 2022, she voted for H.R. 1808, the Assault Weapons Ban of 2022.

◦ In both the 116th and 117th Congresses, Slotkin received a 100% rating from Human Rights Campaign's (HRC) Congressional Scorecard, which measures "support for equality" among members of Congress based on their voting record. HRC endorsed her in each of her campaigns for the House.

And I've always liked Laura Coates, so she should be good as well. I really can't stomach Smith, however. Oh well.

And of course, his opening and New Rules are always fun.

Thanks for posting!
