Issue Position: Good-Paying Jobs for Michigan Workers

Issue Position

I believe in creating economic opportunity for all Michigan families so that they can achieve their own American Dream. That's why I am fighting to make sure that Michigan workers can compete for the best jobs and are being paid fairly.

1. Protect Collective Bargaining Rights: As the son and grandson of union workers, I know how important unions can be in supporting a family. All workers deserve that kind of opportunity, and that means having the right to fight for better hours, pay, and benefits.

2. Put Michigan Workers First: I am working to put Michigan jobs first by making sure that state contracts are awarded to local companies, reinstating the prevailing wage, and ending tax breaks for companies that send jobs out of state or overseas.

3. Invest in Skilled Trades: We have an opportunity in Michigan to increase jobs in manufacturing and the skilled trades. I support enhancing apprenticeships and investing in career and technical education to train our students and workers for these good-paying jobs.
