Rep. Jamie Thompson is earning support across party lines—including an endorsement from her Democratic colleague, Rep. Karen Whitsett. In a fiercely contested election, that willingness to cross the aisle speaks to the relationships Thompson has built and the work she does for her district.
Thompson is fighting to stop AI grocery price gouging, curb Wall Street’s purchases of single-family homes and cut taxes so working families keep more of what they earn. Her priorities reflect the conversations happening around kitchen tables throughout Michigan: groceries cost too much, homeownership feels increasingly out of reach and household budgets need relief.
Those concerns span generations. Young people trying to buy their first home need a fair chance to compete. Older Michiganders looking to downsize need affordable options in the communities they call home. Families buying groceries need confidence that their personal information isn’t being used to charge them more.
Thompson is taking those concerns seriously and fighting for policies that put residents first. Her message is straightforward: people deserve a representative who listens, understands the pressure they’re under and works to make their lives more affordable.
Whitsett’s endorsement reinforces that case. Thompson’s commitment to her constituents has earned recognition from someone who has served alongside her—even across party lines. That is a strong answer to Democrats trying to dismiss Republican candidates without acknowledging the work they do.
