Lansing, Michigan—Tonight Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) congratulated Congressman John James and Tom Barrett for their successful campaigns to represent Michigan in the U.S. House of Representatives.
AFP Action endorsed Tom Barrett to represent Michigan’s 7th Congressional District and Congressman John James for reelection in Michigan’s 10th Congressional District.
In a tight election, these candidates earned Michiganders’ votes for their commitment to restoring fiscal sanity in Washington, promising to prioritize border security, and their understanding of the cost-of-living crisis that’s been making life unaffordable across the Great Lake State.
AFP Action Senior Advisor and AFP-MI State Director Tim Golding issued the following statement after the races were called:
“AFP Action is proud to have supported these outstanding candidates and ensured that Michiganders have principled and reliable representation in Washington. I would be remiss if I did not take this opportunity to thank our grassroots activists and volunteers who pounded the pavement and made thousands of phone calls to support these policy champions.
“With Barrett and James in Washington, radical and regressive polices will get pushback and the American Dream will be back within reach.”
“AFP looks forward to working with these policy champions next Congress.”
This has been a record-breaking year as AFP and AFP Action separately engaged in a staggering 647 races, including 7 critical U.S. Senate races and 44 U.S. House races. AFP and AFP Action’s grassroots army across the country reached out to more than 19.5 million voters – AFP and AFP Action’s largest effort in our 20-year history. AFP Action’s engagement in federal races is critical as we get back to promoting candidates who will advance good policy in Washington and AFP and AFP Action’s engagement in state legislative races continues their commitment to championing policy solutions and limited government principles that empower states across the country.
