In response to the announcement that DeVos sellout and special interest candidate Tudor Dixon has selected former state Rep. Shane Hernandez as the Republican nominee for lieutenant governor, MDP Chair Lavora Barnes issued the following statement:
“Former Rep. Shane Hernandez is cut from the same dangerous cloth as DeVos sellout Tudor Dixon. Backed by the same special interests that helped drag Dixon through the primary, Hernandez has made banning abortion without exceptions a priority throughout his career. Michigan working families deserve leadership that works for them, but Dixon and Hernandez will be catering to the special interests as they work hand-in-hand to dismantle public education, slash funding for infrastructure and law enforcement, and drag Michigan backwards.”
