Community testimonies in support of Rashida

“I support Rashida because she has shown that she actually cares about the needs of her constituents. She is not afraid to talk to us directly, listen to our grievances, and take action. She continues to work on progressive legislation in Washington, positively impacting the lives of me, my family, and our community.”

Rae, Detroit

“I am proud to support Rashida in her run for the 12th congressional district. Rep. Tlaib has always been a fighter for the people and will continue to work on policy that will benefit us. From health care to climate change and everything in between, I know we can count on her to be there for us.”

Zahra, Dearborn

“[During a local strike], Rashida Tlaib was the only elected official who showed up. When we were arrested, she stayed with us until we were all released. She’s the fighter we need in Congress. Also, she totally hugged each one of us and said how proud she was when we stood in the road blocking airport traffic. #BigMomEnergy”

Sara, Southfield

“When I first met Rashida Tlaib… I knew immediately that here was someone special. I am drawn to Rashida because of her unwavering courage… She is Robin Hood, Zorro, and Batwoman—all three without a mask.”

Dennis, Livonia

“I am thrilled that Rashida is running again and looking forward to working on her re-election campaign. I have done wellness check phone calls to her constituents and find they are so grateful that their Congressperson cares about them. The service centers throughout the district give her constituents help with cutting red tape and finding resources. The fact that she comes home every weekend keeps her in touch with her district, to our advantage. Rashida is committed to fighting local problems, like the asphalt plant in Northwest Detroit, as well as nationally for civil rights, the environment, voting rights, taxing billionaires and financial support to bring children out of poverty. Rashida Tlaib will have my vote and my work!”

Susan, Detroit

“I support Rashida because she takes on the real issues affecting our communities and she won’t back down to anyone.”

Janlynn, Detroit

“I support Rashida Tlaib for Congress because she is among a handful of Representatives standing up to corporate greed and pushing for meaningful legislation that actually benefits working class people. She has been consistent in her fights against corporate pollution and exploitation, childhood poverty, and for safe drinking water for all. She uses her platform to build a strong community of hard-working people who rally support behind meaningful causes and I’d be proud to have her as my Rep.”

Spencer, Detroit
