Hey Michigan, today is our day to vote!

Today is our day to vote.

Why I am voting for Callie Barr!

Callie Barr is running for Congress in Congressional District 1.  

For years, we have been represented by (Louisiana) Jack Bergman. Why Louisiana? Because he doesn't even in live in CD 1; he lives in Louisiana. 

WE DESERVE BETTER. 

Why Callie?  

Callie Barr is the only candidate born and raised in Michigan’s First Congressional District, where her family goes back 5th-generations. Callie is a proud graduate of Cheboygan High School where she met her husband, Matt. After 9/11, Matt enlisted in the Marine Corps and served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Callie attended Central Michigan University where she earned her bachelor’s degree in secondary education. Callie moved with her husband 5 times in 15 years, raising two girls and eventually caregiving for Matt after he suffered combat injuries, including post-traumatic stress and a traumatic brain injury. 

Frustrated by the lack of support for active military members and returning veterans, Callie became involved in advocating for the military and their families with Blue Star Families and the Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers. Callie then went on to receive a law degree, graduating with honors from the University of Michigan Law School so she could better advocate for policy changes at the federal level. Callie is running for office because MI-01 deserves a representative that shows up, from here, for here. 

TOP 3 ISSUES

1. Protecting our democracy and freedoms: defend against extremism, protect women’s choice, build a coalition across the aisle, and protect veterans both home and abroad. 

2. Supporting the middle-class: reduce cost of goods and services, increase affordable housing, expand access to healthcare and mental health services, support our labor unions, small businesses, and bring good-paying jobs back home. 

3. Ensuring a future for our children: fight for clean air and water, support public education, and expand access to affordable childcare. 

Contrasts against Rep. Jack Bergman: 

● Bergman refused to investigate the January 6th insurrection and supported overturning the 2020 presidential election. 

● Bergman is an anti-choice extremist who supports zero exceptions, including rape, incest, or even to save the life of the mother. 

● Our polling shows that voters are ready for change, with nearly half of those who originally supported Bergman indicating that they would consider voting for someone else in the upcoming election.

WE DESERVE BETTER. We deserve Callie Barr.
