Kevin Hertel pulled off a win in 2022 that helped Michigan Democrats take control of the State Senate for the first time since 1984. And he won by just 404 votes! Now he's up for re-election in a district that voted for Trump in 2024 and needs YOU - sign up at KevinHertelforSenate.com

Why would a man put himself through having to run four different campaigns in a single year for a seat in the State Senate? For Chedrick Greene, it’s all about service. Watch my full conversation with Senator Chedrick Greene at mallorymcmorrow.substack.com/p/in-the-are...

When Sean Carlson was in third grade, he asked his dad for a dollar. His dad gave him a paper route instead. Hear what Sean learned on that paper route and how it shapes his work running for State Senate today, on Episode 2 of In the Arena. WATCH: mallorymcmorrow.substack.com/p/in-the-are...

Michiganders tell me they feel like tech is being forced on them, that it no longer feels like a tool for them but it’s using them. We’re bombarded by AI, Flock cameras, Amazon drones, and billionaires pushing for massive data centers with no public input or protections. Who is it all for?

She was a resident in med school who'd just had a baby, and Theresa Brooks was out knocking doors for Barack Obama. She was *that* inspired. How does a mom-of-three, doctor, small business owner and city council member find time to run for state Senate?? mallorymcmorrow.substack.com/p/in-the-are...

Mike Rogers put out an ad last week saying the war in Iran needs to end. Pretty passive language there. Who started it, Mike??

Did you know there are three Service Dog War Memorials in the country? One of them is in Michigan’s 13th Senate District, where veteran Sean Carlson is running. Sean joined me for Episode 2 of In the Arena. WATCH: mallorymcmorrow.substack.com/p/in-the-are...

“There’s a 10% chance that this could kill us all.” I’m glad to see leaders of the major AI labs agreeing that it’s time to slow down. It’s on government to get its act together. Now.

Every year on 9/11 I recommend reading this piece about grief, love, and meaning. For all of the politics and all of the noise, it’s important to never lose sight of those who lost, those who suffered, those who ran in to help as so many others tried to get away, and the scars it leaves behind.

Twenty-five years. It’s hard to put into words what this anniversary means. It’s strange meeting young people on my team who were born after it happened, heartbreaking to reconnect with friends in New York who remember it like it was yesterday.

Turns out cosmetology and bartending are excellent training for running for office. This and so much more in my conversation with Rebecca Amidon, running for Michigan's 32nd Senate District - an open seat that could be decided by a few hundred votes. mallorymcmorrow.substack.com/p/meet-rebec...

Workers built this country. The labor movement fought for the workers. From ending child labor to creating the weekend we all enjoy to the ongoing fight for good wages, fair treatment, and a system that works for working people. Happy Labor Day, Michigan.

Our country’s future runs through Michigan. So I’m relaunching my state PAC, A More Perfect Michigan. We’ll support 16 Democratic candidates in the races that will decide control of the Michigan Legislature. I told you I wasn’t leaving the fight, and I need you with me.

Everyone is asking, “What direction is the Democratic Party going?”. The results out of states like Michigan and Wisconsin show that people are rejecting that premise entirely. Let’s grow this party, be a big tent, and solve the real issue of how do we recapture the American Dream.

The stakes could not be clearer. It's not Democrats vs. Republicans. It's Michigan vs. MAGA. And I'll choose Michigan every day of the week.

I love this country. I love Michigan. And I love the little girl who waves at me from the window every morning, trusting the grown-ups to leave her a state and a country worth inheriting. That's who I'm fighting for. And I'm not going anywhere. I hope you'll join me.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

Ten years ago, I started this work heartbroken, typing five words into a search bar. And I learned the only thing that has ever really changed this country: ordinary people who love something enough to fight for it.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

Then, let’s elect Jocelyn Benson as our next Governor. Let’s flip the State House, and expand our majority in the State Senate. Let’s elect Democrats up and down the ticket and show the rest of this country what it means to fight like Michigan.

So here's what we do next. Every day through November 3rd. We win this Senate seat and send Mike Rogers back to Florida for good. Whoever wins this primary on August 4th will have my full support.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

Now, I haven’t been shy about calling for new leadership and a better Democratic Party. I mean it. The energy is there. People are crying out for change. And we owe it to them to listen. Then we need to build it up, together, from the ground up.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

These wins took thousands of us — showing up every single day, refusing to give up when there were setbacks. That's why I'm staying in this fight. And why I need you to stay in it with me.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

And we didn’t stop at winning. We repealed Michigan's abortion ban. We raised wages. We made sure every child gets breakfast and lunch at school. We made it easier to go to college. We expanded civil rights and voting rights. And so, so much more.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

And here's what I learned: when regular people get in the fight, things can change. In my very first election, we flipped a district against the incumbent. Four years later - with so many of you - we flipped the Michigan Senate for the first time in nearly forty years.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

I never planned on politics. After the 2016 election, I felt lost. I picked up my phone and typed five words into the search bar: "How to run for office."

"Remember, Mom," she reminded me recently. "It's not about if you win. It's about trying hard and having fun." She's right. So I want to be very clear about what this announcement is not. I may be suspending this campaign, but I am not leaving the fight.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

For my family. For Ray, who believed in me long before I ever believed in myself. And for Noa. Our five-year-old, who presses her hands up against the window to wave goodbye every morning when I leave for work.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 05/07/2026

And I'm doing it with a deep, deep sense of gratitude. For our thousands of volunteers, for everyone who donated what you could — building a campaign with zero corporate PAC dollars. For my staff, who built this team up from nothing. I thank you.

250 years ago, our Founders built something new: a nation governed by the people, endowed with the unalienable rights to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. The work toward a "more perfect union" is far from finished. At 250, it's just beginning. It's on all of us to keep it alive. 🇺🇸

People are nervous about the progression of AI in our everyday lives. Washington whipped on regulating social media and Big Tech with devastating consequences. We cannot afford to make the same mistake with AI.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

We have to start regulating AI and Big Tech like the product it is. We’ve made some great progress in Michigan, but we need our federal partners to do the same.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

Like AG @dananessel.bsky.social said, when the federal government refuses to regulate AI and keeps the same CEOs who fight against any sensible regulations too close, it’s on states like Michigan to step up to lead.

We have to open the Gordie Howe Bridge. The failure to open the bridge is a stunning example of corruption under Donald Trump.

And yet another example of an administration who charges forward without bringing all stakeholders to the table to understand the ramifications BEFORE taking action. We need a US Senator who has the experience to fight back and build policy the right way.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 01/07/2026

Everyday prices are too high, and Michigan families are feeling the impact of Trump's tariffs. Trump’s tariffs are a policy failure and a tax on hardworking Michiganders.

Mallory McMorrow @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social · 01/07/2026

The only way forward is to relentlessly go after this corruption and ensure no public official uses their office or position to enrich themselves.
