William Lawrence for Congress in MI-07

 

Our Revolution is proud to endorse William Lawrence for Congress in Michigan’s 7th Congressional District.

William is running a people-powered campaign centered on the needs of working families across Mid-Michigan.

Raised in East Lansing, William has spent his career organizing people to take on powerful interests and deliver real results. 

As a co-founder of the Sunrise Movement, he helped build one of the nation’s most influential grassroots climate organizations — securing historic investments in clean energy and good-paying jobs, including hundreds of millions of dollars invested in Michigan’s 7th District. 

William also helped found the Michigan Rent Is Too Damn High Coalition and the Mid-Michigan Tenant Resource Center, working to advance protections for renters and helping families avoid homelessness. 

William’s campaign platform reflects the kind of bold leadership this moment demands. He is focused on lowering the cost of living by expanding affordable housing, protecting Social Security, guaranteeing healthcare for all, and standing up to corporate price gouging. 

He is also calling for stronger environmental protections for Michigan’s water and farmland, greater accountability for polluters, and restoring trust in government through measures like banning stock trading by members of Congress and holding powerful interests accountable. 

Throughout his campaign, William has emphasized that Washington should work for Mid-Michigan families—not billionaires. He has pledged to build a representative’s office that listens to constituents, shows up in every community, and fights for the people who have too often been left behind. 

We’re proud to endorse William Lawrence for Congress and look forward to helping build the grassroots movement needed to send another fighter for working people to Washington.

When we organize, we win!

Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate in Michigan

Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate in Michigan

At a time when we need bold, transformational leadership, Our Revolution is proud to endorse Abdul El-Sayed for U.S. Senate in Michigan.

Abdul is a physician, epidemiologist, and public health leader — perhaps best known as a powerful surrogate for Medicare for All during the presidential campaign of Bernie Sanders, who has also come out to endorse him in this Senate run.  

From leading public health efforts in Michigan to addressing national systemic health inequities, his work has always been grounded in the belief that everyone deserves dignity, care, and opportunity.

He’s running on a bold campaign platform to deliver for working people:

  • Medicare for All – healthcare is a human right
  • Taking on corporate greed
  • Restoring worker power
  • Ending corporate influence in politics
  • A humane immigration system
  • Foreign policy rooted in peace and accountability

This is a campaign powered by people — not corporate PACs — and driven by a commitment to build a government that truly represents working families.

At Our Revolution, we know that real change doesn’t come from the top down — it comes from movements.

Abdul El-Sayed has been part of that movement for years. Now, he’s ready to bring that fight to the United States Senate.

We’re proud to stand with him — and we’re ready to help build the grassroots power needed to win.

When we organize, we win.
