LISTEN: Jocelyn Benson Commits to Cleaning Up John James’ Mess, Bringing Costs Down for Michiganders
Last week, Secretary of State and Democratic nominee for Governor Jocelyn Benson joined the Meidas Touch Podcast to share what she’s been hearing from Michiganders as they’re facing the consequences of John James’ failed economic policies. From Detroit to Muskegon, Jocelyn has heard from Michiganders struggling to afford their healthcare, housing, groceries, and electricity, due to rising costs amidst the trade war with Canada and ongoing Iran War. While John James is raising household costs, and allowing gas prices to skyrocket to $5/gallon, Jocelyn vows to get to work on day one to bring down costs for Michiganders.

WATCH: Jocelyn Benson Highlights Consequences of John James’ Failed Economic Policies
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.
