Please check out Michigan State representative Mai Xiong- my adopted candidate this cycle.

I’ve been following a Michigan State representative named Mai Xiong for quite a while now. She’s an Hmong refugee who has moved up from community offices in Warren (near Detroit) to winning her State Rep election. She’s an active and outspoken woman with a compelling story. Mai Xiong has become a lightning rod for Michigan’s Republican speaker, and now Betsy DeVos has thrown her millions in against her. She’s been the target of vicious attacks.

And the home-made videos Mai posts are a hoot!

Mai is my adopted candidate for this election cycle. I’ve just signed up for a $50 a month donation (my first ever) and I’m working to publicize her here. I see her as Michigan’s AOC. Check out her video that lays out what they’re doing to silence her.

Posting in Michigan (I’m an ex Kalamazooan) and GD.
