Trump puts his war of choice first and Michigan's working families last. Republicans in Washington don't have their priorities straight. My #1 priority is clear: put mid-Michigan first no matter what. That's why I'm running to beat Tom Barrett.

I’m incredibly grateful for the overwhelming grassroots support to our campaign to lower costs, fix our broken healthcare system & defend democracy. Thank you for making us the #1 fundraiser among Dem challengers across MI. We're energized to win this seat & take back the House!

In Lansing, State Representative Joey Andrews is a champion for organized labor, our environment, and working families. I am honored to have his support for our campaign to flip Michigan’s 7th Congressional District!

Our campaign has built the deepest, broadest grassroots coalition here in MI07 — with current & former elected leaders across our district and all levels of govt, labor, veterans, women's groups & more. We're building the team that will flip MI07 & we're just getting started!

Such an honor to join fellow Michiganders at three MI07 No Kings rallies today in Charlotte, Brighton, & Lansing to make clear: we will not stand by while Trump & his enablers in Congress destabilize our economy, erode our democracy, and enrich themselves. No Kings! 🚫👑

Delta Township Trustee Beth Bowen has been a champion for Delta Township residents, working to deliver affordable housing, public safety, and government that truly delivers for those it's meant to serve. I'm so grateful to have her support in our campaign to flip MI07!

What a fantastic turnout for the inaugural meeting of the Williamston-Webberville Area Dems! From Wheatfield Twp to Locke Twp, rural Democrats are fired up and ready to mobilize to flip seats from the township level to the U.S. House!

I never set out to be “the quintessential Trump resister.” But I knew I had to resign and speak out against Trump: I’ve spent my entire career fighting for what’s right and holding the powerful accountable. That's what I'll do in Congress. Join us: secure.actblue.com/donate/brink...

Mayor Pro Tem Chuck Grigsby is a dedicated leader for East Lansing, bringing people together to tackle tough problems & focus on what matters most. I am so grateful and honored to have his support for our campaign to flip MI-07 & deliver for our community.

My MI public education gave me the foundation to pursue the American Dream — and every Michigan kid deserves the same. Since 2019, Chris Martin has fought for public schools as a Trustee, President & now Secretary of the E. Lansing School Board. I’m honored to have his support.

Just received from a supporter in Delta Township. $4.19 per gallon?! This is an energy crisis of Trump's own making and Tom Barrett is doing nothing to fix it — while mid-Michiganders pay the price.

I'm honored to have the endorsement of former Meridian Township Treasurer Phil Deschaine for our campaign to flip Michigan 7! I look forward to working with Phil to make government work for the people it’s meant to serve — from the federal to the township level.

What an honor to join the Pakistani Association of Lansing’s Eid celebration! It was a night full of community, gratitude, and charity, with families coming together & welcoming newcomers. This is what makes our country — the country I proudly served for 28 years — truly great.

Great morning in Delta Twp for our latest community coffee hour! Filled with conversation about: voting access, education, social security & Medicare, affordable healthcare, gas prices & more. Mid-Michiganders are fired up to flip MI07. Together, we’re going to do exactly that!

Before I was the first woman to serve as U.S. Ambassador in a war zone, I was raised by a single mom who worked multiple jobs. I believe deeply in SquareOnePolitics.org's mission of breaking barriers & fighting for what’s right. I’m honored to have their support to flip MI07!

JD Vance is in MI today, calling skyrocketing gas prices "a temporary blip." Really? Gas is up to $4 a gallon here in Lansing — $1 more than a month ago. Trump started this energy crisis with no plan to fix it. Mid-Michigan is paying the price.

When Trump took office, he illegally took away collective bargaining rights from me and a million other federal public servants — including at the Dept of Veterans Affairs ICYMI: a federal court reinstated collective bargaining rights for 320K @AFGE workers at the VA! www.afge.org/article/afge...

As a 3rd generation union member it was an honor & privilege to stand in solidarity with Michigan @teamsters.bsky.social nurses on strike for the good wages, fair treatment, and safe staffing ratios they deserve. One day longer, one day stronger — to the nurses of Local 332 we are with you!

In MI, not only are we ranked 44th in reading, we're ranked 44th in starting teacher pay. We need to pay educators like the professionals they are. And we need to ensure that every kid has access to a great public education that allows them to follow their dreams and succeed.

Trump lifting sanctions on Russian oil won't ease sky rocking gas prices in Michigan and across the country. It will, however, help fund Putin's war machine in Ukraine. As Sen. Chris Coons said this week, the only clear winner in this war with Iran is Russia.

Once again, Trump is trying to tell us not to believe our eyes: gas prices up 68.7 cents per gallon in Lansing in just a week. One minute he says the war is ending “soon,” & the next he’s escalating with no end in sight. There is no strategy & Michiganders are paying the price.

Today's active shooter situation at Temple Israel synagogue & school in West Bloomfield is horrifying. Antisemitism has no place in Michigan or our country. My thoughts are with our Jewish community. Thankful no one was hurt & for the swift action of first responders.

As an MSU football star, Marine Corps officer, and the first & only Black Speaker of the Michigan State House, State Representative Joe Tate (@tateformichigan.com) is an incredible leader, a trailblazer, and a model of Michigan excellence. I am honored & humbled to have his endorsement. Go Green!

State Representative @noaharbit.bsky.social is a champion for the people of Oakland County & all Michiganders. I'm honored to have his support to flip MI07 and I look forward to working with him to fix our broken health care system, support small businesses, and lower costs.

Gas prices are up nearly a full dollar in the last month here in Lansing. Why? Instead of addressing the affordability crisis at home, Trump started a forever war abroad with no strategic end goal, disrupting the global supply of oil. And Michiganders are paying the price.

NEW: @bridgetbrink.com served as Ambassador to Ukraine--the first US woman to serve as chief diplomat in a war zone. We sat down to talk about her service--including her harrowing first days in Kiev--Trump's war in Iran, and why she's now home running for Congress.

My heart goes out to the families of the four Michiganders, including a 12-year-old boy, whose lives were tragically taken by tornados in southwest Michigan. Thank you to the brave first responders who risked their lives to help their neighbors during yesterday’s storm.

Putin is sharing intelligence with the Iranians to help them target U.S. service members & officials in the Middle East. The Trump Admin's response: "Frankly, it does not really matter." This is a truly stunning dereliction of our government's duty to protect American lives.

Thrilled to have Bath Charter Township Trustee Ray Kotke's support for our campaign to flip MI07!I look forward to working with him to flip this seat and deliver for our community. Join us at www.bridgetbrink.com!

Making health care affordable is personal to me: without insurance, my breast cancer surgery would have cost $100K. That's outrageous. Tom Barrett's votes have raised insurance costs for everyone. We need to fix our broken health care system. That starts w/ flipping MI07.

Trump’s war in Iran has resulted in 6 U.S. service members killed, drone strikes on our Embassy in Saudi Arabia & Consulate in Dubai, and the stranding of thousands of Americans across the Middle East. The message from our Embassies to American citizens: you're on your own. 1/2

We've knocked thousands of doors already this year, and what we keep hearing is that folks just want a representative who will do what is right for our community, no matter what. This shouldn't even be a political issue. But Tom Barrett keeps voting against MI07's interests.

Freedom fades step by step—when press, justice, and rights are tested. Stay alert. @bridgetbrink.com substack.com/profile/2774... Follow The Ken Harbaugh Show here: linktr.ee/thekenharbau...

Fed up with broken promises, high prices, and attacks on healthcare. People want action. @bridgetbrink.com substack.com/profile/2774... Follow The Ken Harbaugh Show here: linktr.ee/thekenharbau...

I'm running for Congress to hold Trump and his administration accountable for the damage they are doing at home and abroad. We need leaders who have a proven track record of doing this. I've stood up to Trump before, and I'll do it again on behalf of our community in MI07.

Trustee Jim Brinker is a dedicated public servant working to improve the lives of Williamstown Township residents and a steadfast union leader. As a third-generation union member, I'm honored to have his endorsement in our campaign to defeat Tom Barrett and flip MI07!

The last thing we need right now is another forever war — a war of choice — one that has now cost the lives of four brave members of our military. There is no clear strategic objective or clear evidence of an imminent threat. 1/3

So honored to have Eaton County Commissioner Jane Whitacre's endorsement for our campaign to flip MI07. Commissioner Whitacre has served the people of Delta Twp, and all of Eaton County, for 13 years and counting. I look forward to working with her to deliver for our community.

Honored to attend Governor Whitmer's final State of the State Address as State Rep. @juliebrixie.bsky.social's guest! DC Republicans are failing us: ripping health care & food assistance from thousands in our district. Our state leaders are fighting back. I'm running for MI07 to join this fight.

What we didn’t hear in the SOTU: While Trump & his family made $4B since his reelection, families in mid-Michigan face higher costs, loss of healthcare, and uncertain futures. Trump may be “winning” thanks to enablers like Tom Barrett, but working families are paying for it.

With the State of the Union tonight, it's clear: Trump's policies are hurting working families right here in mid-Michigan. Tonight he's going tell us this isn't true. And DC Republicans like Tom Barrett will stand and applaud. We deserve better.

On the 4th anniversary of Putin's brutal invasion of Ukraine, we must remember: - Freedom is not free; - We must show leadership in the face of aggression, not weakness or complicity; - When America doesn’t lead with our values, we risk our success as a nation. 1/2

Huge congratulations to the incredible Michigan athletes who made our state and nation proud in the Winter Olympics, bringing home gold in men’s & women’s hockey, mixed team aerials, and team figure skating; silver in ice dancing; & bronze in the 2-woman bobsled! 🇺🇸🥇🥈🥉

Great to knock doors this weekend in Okemos! It may be cold, but the stakes are just too high. We need to fix our broken health care system, build an economy that works for everyone, and defend our rights & freedoms. That's what I'll do in Congress — Tom Barrett sure isn't.

Great crowd at our East Lansing coffee hour! Fantastic conversation about urgent issues including fixing our broken health care system to rooting out corruption. Together we’re going to beat Tom Barrett & the DC special interests backing him. Join us at BridgetBrink.com!

A clear & decisive win for the working families of mid-Michigan. Tom Barrett repeatedly voted for Trump’s reckless & unconstitutional tariffs that hurt our farmers, small businesses & families. I'm running to fight for the hardworking people of MI07. No matter what. apnews.com/article/supr...

"In 2018, facing a daunting 23-seat deficit, Democratic women didn't just compete — they delivered the majority." Including right here in mid-Michigan. With so much at stake, we're going to do exactly the same in MI07 in 2026. Proud to be part of EMILYs List’s Mission Majority.

Trump promised to end the war in Ukraine on day 1 but Russia keeps escalating. The latest peace talks ended after just hours. I served as Amb to Ukraine for 3 years in a war zone. When Trump kept appeasing Putin, I resigned. Where things stand ahead of the war's 4th anniversary:

I was raised by an MEA school teacher & I'm a proud product of Michigan public schools. A strong public education is the gateway to opportunity & success. With public education under attack, I will always fight like hell to support our schools, educators, and families.
