Barrett is running as a data center fighter.

A Lever investigation found Rogers holds $1.7 to $2.6 million in companies positioned to profit from the AI build-out, including a stake in a Blackstone trust that is 29 percent data centers while Blackstone helps build a $16 billion data center near Ann Arbor.

ACA marketplace enrollment in Michigan fell 27% in a single year after the premium tax credits lapsed, and the Medicaid cuts haven't even started yet. All three of these congressmen voted against restoring the credits, and for the law that schedules the rest.
Five state Republican parties have added anti-IVF language to their platforms. In Congress, the SAFE KIDS Act would void surrogacy contracts with citizens of China, Russia, Iran and North Korea — and 25 Republicans with report cards here put their names on it.
Three roll calls tell the story: yes on the 2005 energy bill loaded with oil and gas subsidies, no on the price gouging ban, no on the energy independence bill the American Petroleum Institute opposed.
