Bloomberg wins endorsement from Democrat who flipped Michigan seat

Democratic presidential hopeful Michael Bloomberg has won the endorsement of Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.), a freshman lawmaker who flipped a GOP-held seat in 2018.

Stevens said she believes the former New York City mayor would fight for working families and achieve an infrastructure deal if he’s elected president.

“I know Mike Bloomberg will help grow Michigan's manufacturing economy, because I worked with him in the past to create advanced manufacturing jobs,” said Stevens.

“I'm endorsing Mike Bloomberg for president because he has the experience to unite the country and defeat Donald Trump this fall, and I am eager to work with him to tackle our toughest problems and strengthen the middle class, lower healthcare costs, and fight climate change.”

“Congresswoman Haley Stevens has been a leader on economic recovery and revitalization, and she sees through President Trump’s empty rhetoric,” said Bloomberg. “I’m honored to have her support, and I’m ready to work with her to bring more good jobs with higher pay to all the Michiganders who have been shortchanged by the Trump administration.”
