Tom Barrett promised Michiganders he’d lower prices. Instead, he’s voted to make everything more expensive while working to enrich himself and his special interest allies.
Refresher on Barrett’s true record:
Voting to kill energy tax credits and raise electricity prices on Michiganders, so he could give a handout instead to his Big Oil donors.
Backing reckless tariffs that have raised prices, hurt Michigan’s economy, and undercut small businesses and manufacturing.
Rubberstamping the war of choice in Iran that has caused gas prices to skyrocket and fertilizer prices to rise during planting season.
Manufacturing campaign merchandise overseas while lying about supporting American workers.
DCCC Spokesperson Katie Smith: “Michiganders are paying more for everything from gas and electricity, to groceries and health care, and they have Tom Barrett to thank. Barrett backed every extreme Washington policy raising prices on Michigan families while benefiting his billionaire donors, and he couldn’t care less because he’s cashing checks, too.”
