“Mr. Rogers, 61, is a Livonia native who left Michigan to serve as an Army lieutenant and a Federal Bureau of Investigation special agent, focused on organized crime and corruption in Chicago. He then returned home, entered politics, and was elected to the U.S. House district Ms. Stabenow vacated when she was elected to the Senate in 2000.

DEBATE DOMINANCE — On Monday, Mike Rogers debated Slotkin for the second time, and once again proved he’ll have Michigan’s back when it comes to securing the southern border, lowering costs for families, standing up for women in sports, and eliminating the job-killing EV mandates.
One moment that got everyone talking… Even Fox News.
“But if you care about all women, this is a great time to talk about Title IX. Where my opponent said ‘I’m not protecting girls in sports and I’m not protecting girls by allowing men into locker rooms.’ Both of which she voted for. If you want to protect women, there are other ways to do it. I think that is an outlier in this particular debate and it certainly doesn’t put you on team normal.” — Mike Rogers
NOLAN OUT LOUD — In case you missed it, The Detroit News’ Nolan Finley called out Slotkin for her consistent deception and false promises.
“Give Slotkin credit. She delivered her distortions with admirable authority. You'd almost think she was telling the truth.”
TOP-ED: In the pages of Townhall, Mike Rogers wrote about his vision to make life more affordable and increase Americans’ take home pay. Rogers is “offering a different approach that puts America first.”
“American families, workers, small businesses, innovators, and young people should know I will always put your interests first, and I will always have your back! Together we will build an economy that allows America and Michigan to thrive.”
SLOTKIN ON DEFENSE — CNN’s Manu Raju calls out Slotkin’s dramatic collapse as she tries to mislead Michiganders about her longtime support for EV mandates and admits Kamala is “underwater.”
ROGERS TALKS EV MANDATES — Mike Rogers joined Larry Kudlow on Fox Business Network to discuss the disastrous EV mandates being forced upon Michigan by Slotkin and Kamala.
“We are gathering up auto workers all across the state. Think about it 1.1 million workers in Michigan are tied to the gas engine production in one way or another. 40% less labor according to the CEO of Ford, you do the math that’s 400,000 manufacturing jobs. They are using taxpayer money to bring in Chinese companies to build a product that will result in less Michigan workers. I don’t know anybody who thinks that is a good idea.”

DRIVE: Slotkin is called out for supporting job-killing EV mandates and then lying to Michiganders about her record. She cannot be trusted.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR — Bill Lauderbach writes to the Midland Daily News to tell Midlanders: Vote for Mike Rogers to represent Michigan in the U.S. Senate.
“I urge a vote for Mike Rogers for U.S. Senate. His experience as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee will bring a vast store of knowledge and experience to the task. Also, his experience in the military adds to the richness of his background. At a time such as this, when wars rage and tensions reign, we need Mike Rogers. As a former FBI special agent, he will address immigration and law enforcement issues in an intelligent and reasonable way. We need Mike Rogers. With his conservative mindset, he will monitor federal spending and control the growth in the federal debt, something that is not promised by either presidential candidate. We need Mike Rogers. Michigan needs to be represented by a senator who chooses to govern on behalf of all of the people.”
