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
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.
