Michigan College Democrats

We are horrified by the reports of the violence at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield. Our hearts are with all of those affected by this terrible situation. Acts of violence — especially in houses of worship or schools — have no place in our communities.

This #TransDayOfRemembrance, we honor the trans lives taken for simply being themselves. No one should lose their lives due to discrimination. Today and everyday, we remain committed to protecting trans lives and making sure everyone can live safely and authentically🩵🩷🤍

In our country’s most perilous times, it is the perseverance of our veterans that have kept Americans safe. This #VeteransDay, we want to honor the bravery and courage of all of those who have served our nation. Thank you to all of our veterans! 🇺🇸❤️

Thanks to the congressional circus, SNAP benefits that millions rely on are now halted come Nov. 1 unless Congress does its damn job. If you can’t find the time to pass a budget, how about finding the decency to feed 42 million people.

Did somebody say...FILING DEADLINE?! Because we sure did! Donate today on micollegedems.org.

College Dems showed up across Michigan to shout one message loud and clear: NO KINGS in America. Young people are fighting back against Trump’s ruthless attempts to defy the Constitution and build a government by the rich, for the rich.

Always proud to have @UM_Dearborn College Democrats join us in the fight for a more democratic future for all.

To Michigan Republicans in D.C. and Lansing: Political theater has a real cost, and it’s paid in rent, groceries, and medicine. Get to work and pass a damn budget.

MICD is shocked to learn of the shooting today at a church in Grand Blanc. Our thoughts are with the victims and their families as they recover from this horrific tragedy. Violence has no place in our state or our country—we deserve bold action and stronger gun safety laws now.

Mike Rogers wants to “make Detroit safe again.” Step one: actually live in Michigan Detroit doesn’t need the National Guard. It needs politicians who know where it is on a map. Florida man runs for Michigan Senate, wants to send troops to Detroit. You can’t make this crap up!

This Labor Day, we honor the students who keep our campuses and communities running. Too often, workplaces profit off student labor while failing to protect the very people who keep them running. That has to change. Today and every day, we stand with our student workers.

If we’re all agreed that everything going on in Gaza is bad, are we going to revisit those students who were prosecuted for protesting it?

Somewhere out there, Kristi Whitman is very confused why she’s suddenly Governor of Michigan.

Back to school means College Dems are back on campus! If you see a table at your university, stop by, grab some swag, and say hi! We’re working to end student debt, stop political attacks on students, protect free speech on campus, and so much more. Let's fight back together.💙

It’s high time the Democratic party stop ignoring the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. We’re witnessing children and people our age starving to death through our own phone screens. It’s heartbreaking and it’s dystopian. The time to act is now.

249 years ago, America was founded. We broke free from a ruthless tyrant to establish our democracy. But today, the fight for our democratic values are far from over. We honor our founding by continuing the work to build a nation that truly lives up to its promise.

We are watching the transfer of power from constituents to big-dollar donors right in front of our very eyes. Thanks to Republicans, those in need will lose life-saving services, all to give tax breaks for the wealthiest among us. What a Big Bullshit Bill.

We are horrified at the news that Michigan elected officials were among those listed as targets by the assassin of Minnesota State Rep. Hortman. We’ve seen politically motivated violence touch our state before and we must say clearly: this is terrifying and must be condemned.

MICD had an amazing time this weekend at the @MichiganDems Legacy Dinner!
