Jocelyn has a proven track record of transforming broken government systems and fixing them to save Michiganders time and money while protecting their rights and freedoms. As governor, she will make Michigan more affordable, take our public schools to the top 10 in the nation, and make government work for Michiganders.
It’s past time we root out the corruption holding us back and build a government that truly works for people – a government that makes life more affordable for families – from housing to healthcare to childcare to education.
Stay up to date with the latest news, announcements, and updates from the campaign as we build a winning coalition heading into 2026.
PRESS RELEASE
Today, Secretary of State and Democratic nominee for Governor Jocelyn Benson called out John James on Morning Joe for rubberstamping Trump’s failed economic policies in Congress and raising costs for Michiganders. While James has voted to support the tariffs raising household costs by $5,619, and repeatedly voted to support Trump’s Iran War that skyrocketed gas prices to over $5 per gallon — including just last week — Jocelyn has rolled out a comprehensive plan to bring down costs and raise wages. Michiganders deserve a governor that makes their life easier, and works for them — not a yes-man for Donald Trump.
