AFP Action Launches New $1 Million Ad Campaign Highlighting Two Distinct Paths in Michigan 

Lansing, MI – Today, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) announced a $1 million ad buy in support of Mike Rogers for U.S. Senate, bringing AFP Action’s investment in the Michigan Senate race to more than $5.5 million this cycle. The ad, “Workhorse,” highlights two distinct paths for Michigan: Rogers’ record of fiscal discipline and independent leadership against the far left’s tax-and-spend agenda that has driven up costs for Michigan families.

AFP Action detailed this shift in a new memo, “El-Sayed’s Michigan Win Puts DSA Agenda on the Ballot Nationwide.” 

LIBRE Action, AFP Action’s sister organization focused on outreach to Hispanic communities, is running a complementary ad, “More Opportunity,” highlighting Rogers’s plan to expand economic opportunity for Michigan families.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Tim Golding said the following:

“Michigan families are struggling with the cost of everything from groceries to gas, and Abdul El-Sayed’s answer is more government, more spending, and more of your paycheck. His agenda of government-run healthcare and higher taxes would make life more expensive for the people he claims to fight for.

“Mike Rogers understands what it takes to grow Michigan’s economy and get families ahead without Washington getting in the way. He’s the voice that Michiganders need in the Senate.”

AFP Action Congratulates Arizona House Winners Committed to Fighting for Arizona Families

Phoenix, AZ – AFP Action today congratulated George Khalaf (LD-03), Janet Weninger (LD-13), and Kevin Hartke (LD-13) on their victories in Tuesday’s Arizona House elections.

AFP Action Senior Advisor for Arizona Stephen Shadegg released the following statement:

“Arizona voters sent a clear message last night. They want lawmakers who will fight to keep taxes low, protect school choice, and hold government accountable for how it spends their money. George Khalaf, Janet Weninger, and Kevin Hartke each made that case to their constituents, and voters rewarded them for it.

“AFP Action’s grassroots activists worked hard across these districts to make sure voters knew what was at stake, and we are proud of the role we played in these victories. We look forward to seeing each of these candidates deliver real results for Arizona families.” 

AFP Action worked to support these candidates through its grassroots network in the primary, educating and engaging voters on the issues at stake in each race.

As Democratic Socialists “Rally” in Detroit, AFP Action and Mike Rogers Bring Common-Sense Solutions to Macomb County

MACOMB, MI — While Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Abdul El-Sayed want Michiganders to believe more government control is the answer to their problems, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) is on doorsteps in Macomb County with a different answer: Mike Rogers’ vision for a Michigan with lower energy bills and more jobs in the auto industry, built by Michiganders instead of dictated by Washington.

Tim Golding, senior advisor to AFP Action Michigan, released the following statement:

“While national progressive figures fly into Detroit to sell Michiganders on the same failed socialist ideas that have hollowed out cities and driven up costs across the country, we’re on the ground in Macomb County – talking with real voters about what actually works.

“Mike Rogers understands that Michigan families need lower energy bills, good-paying jobs in the auto and defense industries, and skilled trades training for their kids. And that doesn’t come from bigger government.

“Give more power and control to Washington, or lower energy costs and bring manufacturing jobs back to Michigan? That’s the choice in front of Michigan voters. We’re confident they’ll choose jobs and lower bills over more government control.”

Today’s AFP Action and LIBRE Action canvassing event in Macomb is part of a broader door-to-door effort across Michigan. Volunteers are talking with voters about energy costs, manufacturing jobs, the price of groceries and gas, and the solutions Mike Rogers is offering to fix them.
