John James Targets Dem US Senate Incumbent for Flip-Flopping on Sanctuary Cities

When I was following the votes on the Senate floor on the Toomey Amendment, to ban federal grants to outlaw sanctuary jurisdictions, I expected some of the Red State Democrats to vote for it because this is a tough election year for Democrats.

I was surprised that Debbie Stabenow (D-Michigan) voted for Toomey's amendment, though!

Republican challenger John James called her out on this vote--because she voted against the same legislation three times before. What changed for Debbie?

She's worried about her re-election chances, simple as that. Like Russ Feingold in 2010, Stabenow hasn't been paying attention to the slow but steady political shift under her feet. The state has gotten redder by the minute. The Wolverine State is getting redder by the minute, despite the slip-up in 2014, with Gary Peters taking Carl Levin's place when Secretary of State Terry Lynn Land chose to hew a centrist message rather than standing out as an outspoken conservative.

Republicans control the state legislature in Lansing. Govenror Rick Snyder has overseen economic expansion and growth. Detroit's voter turnout, with voter fraud and corruption of the past 60 years, does not have the power and sway it used to have since the rapid depopulation and bankruptcy.

Last of all, right to work has made the state essentially competitive for Republicans, and the current RNC Chairman is from Michigan!

Is there enough moment to get John James elected, too? Let's hope so.

After 44 years as a politician, Debbie Stabenow decides to flip flop on her weak position on immigration and illegal sanctuary cities.

Maybe that’s because she’s facing a tough election in less than nine months. Tell Senator Stabenow border security isn’t a political game.

Tell Stabenow

Arthur,

 

During my time as an Army Captain and Apache pilot in Operation Iraqi Freedom, I actively secured a border from dangerous terrorists.

Debbie Stabenow voted to protect illegal sanctuary cities in 2008, 2015, and 2016.

In 2018, she faces a tough election against me – maybe that’s why she’s hoping one vote in the Senate will make her constituents forget her past. But I believe you are smart enough to see right through this cheap and insulting political ploy.

I have ALWAYS opposed sanctuary cities and I am the strongest candidate on border security in this election. Now, I’m asking you to stand with me and tell Stabenow she can’t hide her weak record on border security.
