Rep. Stevens Urges Harris Campaign To Not Take Michigan For Granted

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris campaigns for Virginia Democratic gubernatorial nominee and former governor Terry McAuliffe in Norfolk

Democratic Representative Haley Stevens has advised the Harris campaign to remain cautious despite recent polling showing the Democratic presidential nominee leading in Michigan. Stevens emphasized the importance of not taking anything for granted in her home state.

Describing Vice President Kamala Harris as the 'underdog,' Stevens stressed the campaign's commitment to inclusivity, stating, 'we're not leaving anyone behind.' She highlighted the shifting political landscape in her Michigan district, which has transitioned from supporting Republicans to favoring Democrats over the past two decades.

Stevens pointed to the district's history of strong Democratic female leadership and the dedication of volunteers as positive indicators for the Harris campaign's prospects in Michigan.

Addressing the sensitive issue of the Israel-Hamas conflict, Stevens acknowledged the complexity of the situation and revealed that she had discussed the recent killing of six Israeli hostages with Vice President Harris during her visit to Michigan on Labor Day.

Stressing the Biden-Harris administration's commitment to achieving a ceasefire and honoring the memory of the hostages, Stevens highlighted the ongoing efforts to address the conflict.
