Coalition Of Michigan Clergy Leaders Endorse Haley Stevens For Senate: “Haley Stevens Fights For Michigan”
8/28/2025
DETROIT, MI – Today, forty clergy leaders from all across Michigan announced they are supporting Haley Stevens for Senate, citing her responsiveness to their communities’ needs and her track record of fighting to lower costs, strengthening our state’s economy, and delivering for Michigan.
“Michigan is home to extraordinary faith leaders, and I am proud to have the support of this dedicated coalition of clergy backing my campaign for Senate,” said Congresswoman Haley Stevens. “I’ve spent my career fighting for Michigan and I look forward to working alongside community and faith leaders in the Senate to strengthen our communities, protect our freedoms, and make sure every Michigander can succeed.”
These endorsements continue a “string of endorsements” for Haley, as she continues to gain momentum in this race. Haley has also been endorsed by former state House Speaker Joe Tate, Congresswoman Hillary Scholten, Lansing Mayor Andy Schor, Grand Rapids Mayor David LaGrand, Former MI Governor Jim Blanchard, UNITE Here Local 24, and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi.
Polling has shown Haley is the “only Democrat leading” Republican candidate Mike Rogers and importantly, the Democratic candidate with the strongest backing of independent voters in the general election.
