Thank you so much to Sen. Mark Kelly and Rep. Gabby Giffords for launching a canvass with us this afternoon in Midland! An honor to be with two courageous American heroes, and so grateful for their support. Let’s go!

Even though I’m 6’4, a couple members of our ticket admittedly stand taller than me. Looking (up) at you, Garlin Gilchrist for Secretary of State and Abbas Alawieh for State Senate. But we all stand strong for UAW & its working men and women. Great to join Region 1A this afternoon.

The race for Attorney General is about who will fight for you. I’ve taken on polluters, predators, and the President himself. I’ve fought for your rights—and will always do so as AG. I’ve got your back.

BREAKING: The Detroit Free Press—Michigan’s largest newspaper—just endorsed us for AG, calling it the “most important race” in Michigan. This race is about protecting our rights, & standing up to powerful interests. I’ve fought those fights throughout my career. And I’ll do so as AG.

The race for Attorney General is fundamentally a job application process in which candidates are vying to be your lawyer. It’s not about me. Not about my opponent. It’s about you—and who’s going to fight for you against even the most powerful of interests.

It’s unconscionable to think that the biggest corporations on the planet would ask residential ratepayers to shoulder their electricity costs. That they’d deplete our natural resources. Or that we’d allow them to bully local communities. I’ll stand up as AG.

Michigan ratepayers deserve an AG who’ll fight for them—not just offer lip service. That means an AG who’ll turn down utility money, & stand against distorting influence of money in politics. And it means being willing to stand up to the President himself. Full debate link in comments ⬇️.

Voting in Michigan starts TODAY, with mail-in ballots dropping! Make sure you have a plan to vote on or before November 3!

Trump is trying to force an old, inefficient coal-fired power plant to remain open in west Michigan—and ratepayers are going to be asked to shoulder the excess costs. Make no mistake: I’ll continue fighting for ratepayers, our health, and the environment as AG.

I was honored to receive such a warm welcome from MEA retirees in Lansing today! As Attorney General, I’ll always fight for kids, educators, and public schools—as well as the retirees who dedicated their careers to building a brighter future.

Tonight—thanks to the efforts of AG Nessel & Democratic AGs across the nation—SCOTUS rejected Trump’s efforts to disenfranchise voters, & rewrite the rules in the middle of an election. As AG, I’ll continue fighting to ensure our elections are free, fair, & final. My statement.

25 years ago, our nation suffered a catastrophic wound. Today in Ann Arbor, we marked the 25th anniversary of 9/11 by ringing the firehouse bell, and reading the names of every first responder who was killed. We must never forget the victims, the heroes—and those who were both.

“The Michigan Mamdani” 😱. For some reason, that’s what national Republican groups who are trying to buy Michigan’s elections are calling me. They must mean—like Mamdani—I’m obsessed with lowering costs, safer communities, and ensuring everyone can afford to eat at great local businesses. Right?

Labor Day, Detroit. Solidarity forever.

The MSU Dems are fired up for an Attorney General that will hold everyone accountable when they break the law—even the most powerful of interests. I’ve done it before. And I’m ready to go.

There’s only one candidate in this race that refuses corporate and utility contributions. And only one candidate who’s pledged, unambiguously, to stand with Michigan families suffering from ever-higher electrical costs. (It’s me). Full story from Planet Detroit ⬇️

Hate has no home in Michigan. That’s true if it’s criminals targeting communities. Or if it’s politicians using our differences to divide us. We are stronger together, stronger as one. My remarks in Dearborn yesterday.

The Supreme Court just allowed the Trump Administration to move forward with plans to restrict mail-in voting. Fights remain. Democratic AGs will continue leading them. But make a backup plan to vote now. And in November, remember who’s trying to take so much away from you.

Bad actors that take advantage of Michiganders—and make life even less affordable—must be stopped. I’ve done it before. And I’ll do it as AG.

Will I stand up for Michigan ratepayers against the utilities? You bet. And you can know that my loyalty will always be with Michigan residents—because I don’t take utility money.

Our strength in Michigan is in unity, togetherness, and shared respect for our neighbors. No outside agitators can change that.

Thank you, UAW Region 1 retiree delegates, for welcoming me to your meeting yesterday! Great meeting so many people—and sharing our vision for how the AG’s office can stop scams, fight for the working class, & preserve the American Dream so many UAW retirees fought to build.

An honor hosting the incredible, inspirational Gabby Giffords in Detroit for a pair of roundtables on gun violence. Grateful to all who participated, and proud to work alongside so many dedicated leaders who are committed to ending gun violence in our communities.

Congress’s efforts to regulate cryptocurrency must include basic safeguards—including preserving the ability to hold bad actors accountable, and ensuring that the President cannot profit from markets the government regulates. My op-ed in the Detroit News (link in comments).

We care about each other, and that’s what unites us as Democrats. I have never seen a Democrat call to cut healthcare, food assistance, or to sacrifice their constituents’ well-being out of fealty to this President. That’s why I’m proud to be a member of this party—and coalition—today & every day.

Todd Blanche was confirmed early this morning as US Attorney General—after promising to take abortion bans nationwide. Not on my watch. Michigan voters made the choice to defend reproductive freedom. And as Michigan AG, I will defend that choice—and the choices of every woman.

Tonight, the Michigan Dems came together. We rallied, laughed, and highlighted our collective vision. And we committed to redoubling our efforts to win in November—and build a fair and just future for all of Michigan. Let’s go!

Thought Michigan’s battle for reproductive freedom was over? Think again. Trump’s anti-choice AG said “victory will be soon and permanent.” Not on my watch. In ‘22, I fought to secure abortion rights in Michigan. You can bet I’ll be in court fighting for repro rights as AG.

You should never be charged more for something just because of who you are. Here’s how I’ll combat AI-based surveillance pricing.

Our opponents are coming after our voting rights—precisely so they can take away our reproductive rights. They know the power of our voices and our votes. And as Attorney General, I’ll defend our rights—voting rights, civil rights, reproductive rights—against any and all unlawful attacks.

We can never fall sway to those who intentionally seek to divide us from our neighbors. The way to move forward is with all of us, together, in solidarity.

I actually very much agree with the White House’s celebration of a birthright citizen being able to compete for the U.S…and the suspension of a dumb red card. USA indeed 🇺🇸!
040
Eli Savit @esavit.bsky.social · 05/07/2026
A day after SCOTUS rejects Trump’s efforts to sideline birthright citizens, he fights to allow one to suit up for the US. The point? Birthright citizens ARE part of America. Always have been. They’re our veterans. Teachers. Doctors. And—yep—our soccer stars. (Also, it wasn’t a red card).

Happy Father’s Day to all dads out there, especially to mine. Though our clothing choices may have evolved—from overalls & bathrobes to suits & convention swag—my dad’s always been there for me. Because that’s what dads do. Sending love not just to him, but fathers everywhere.

Today, we joined events hosted by the City of Oak Park, DABO Detroit, and the Michigan Democratic Party to commemorate Juneteenth. A picture perfect day to celebrate freedom and community—and redouble ourselves to ensuring that the promise of freedom and equality is actually fulfilled.

A mom should never have to pay more for baby medicine just because her kid is sick. Yet with the rise of AI based pricing, that’s the dystopian road we’re going down. But not on my watch as AG.

Wonderful attending the Newaygo County Dems’ annual dinner this evening—and particularly honored to present AG Dana Nessel with their Democracy Defender Award. It’s incredibly well-deserved. And I look forward to continuing the work—for our democracy and our future.

Proudly joined striking @uaw.org workers on the lines at American Axle this morning. In 2008, workers took massive pay cuts—many from $29 to $14.50 an hour—to save the company. Now, billions in profit later, it’s past time for American Axle to pay its workers a fair wage.

The Michigan Attorney General can’t end Trump’s stupid war with Iran. What I can do as AG is make sure corporations aren’t taking advantage of this crisis—or any other—to rip you off. And I will.

A meaningful start to Memorial Day in Saline, paying respects to fallen heroes. Mayor Marl read from the letter Maj. Sullivan Ballou wrote to his wife Sarah before dying in combat in the Civil War—reflecting the ultimate sacrifice so many Americans & their loved ones made. /1

Surveillance pricing: bad in Maryland; bad in Michigan. Our Legislature should pass Rep. Noah Arbit’s bill banning the practice. And—with or without legislation—I’ll use every power of the Attorney General’s office to prevent it.

Grateful that all those attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner are safe. Thankful for the quick response by law-enforcement. There is never any place for political violence in our democracy.
