State Sen. Jeremy Moss Announces Congressional Run

Michigan State Senator Jeremy Moss has announced his candidacy for the 11th Congressional District seat being vacated by Rep. Haley Stevens, who is running for U.S. Senate. Moss, the first openly gay member of the Michigan Senate and current speaker pro tempore, emphasizes his history as a disruptor and advocate for civil rights, voting rights, and government transparency. He highlights the need for bold leadership to confront challenges from figures like Donald Trump and address concerns about democracy and the economy in Oakland County. Moss also positions himself as a strong progressive voice against antisemitism and in support of Israel, pledging to represent the sizable Jewish and pro-Israel communities in his district. His campaign reflects a commitment to fighting for marginalized communities, making government more accountable, and responding to rising antisemitism in Michigan. Other potential Democratic candidates include Oakland County Commissioner Dave Woodward, but Moss is the first to formally enter the race.
