Led by a member-elected board of the UAW’s Community Action Program (CAP) in Michigan, the UAW is proud to announce two endorsements for critical races for Governor and U.S. Senate.
For Governor of Michigan, the UAW is proud to endorse Secretary Jocelyn Benson.
Michigan’s 2026 Gubernatorial election is a critical race that sets us up for our May Day 2028 plans. More than ever, we need to elect a leader in Lansing that stands alongside the UAW against corporate interests – and we know what side Jocelyn Benson is on. As Secretary of State, Jocelyn Benson has proved she’s not afraid to stand up against the most powerful billionaires in the name of working-class Michiganders across the state. UAW members need that kind of energy in Michigan’s Capitol.
For U.S. Senate, the UAW is proud to endorse Dr. Abdul El-Sayed.
UAW members in Michigan want a fighter in Washington, D.C. who isn’t afraid to push forward a strong working-class agenda with moral clarity. Having never taken a dime from corporate PACs, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is someone we can trust to have our backs, including when we need it most – like come May Day 2028. From Medicare for All to banning stock buybacks, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is ready, eager, and well-equipped to move our core issues in the U.S. Senate.
