Candidate
Haley Stevens
US House
Michigan
— 11th District Democrat
Incumbent2024
As the first millennial that Michigan voters sent to Congress, Representative Haley Stevens has had to grapple with the deadly realities of gun violence for her entire life. While serving in the Obama administration, she watched as our nation was rocked by the murder of 20 children and six educators in Newtown, Connecticut. As a first-time House candidate, she faced the tragic news of the devastating mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. And as an incumbent member of Congress, she has joined her colleagues across Michigan in mourning the lives of students killed at Oxford High School and at Michigan State University.
One of the central reasons Representative Stevens ran for Congress—in a seat she flipped and has held for multiple terms—was to keep dangerous weapons out of the communities she represents. On her first day in office, she fulfilled a campaign promise to send a letter to her colleagues calling on them to pass universal background checks and fund gun violence research. Even as the NRA has spent millions of dollars against her, Representative Stevens has voted for every single piece of legislation aimed at reducing gun violence that has come to the House floor. She has spent her tenure in Congress working to enforce the laws we already have on the books and fighting to pass bills focused on cracking down on bump stocks, getting ghost guns off America’s streets, and closing loopholes in the background checks system. In 2022, she also joined with her colleagues on both sides of the aisle to pass the landmark Bipartisan Safer Communities Act—which was the first major gun safety legislation signed into law in nearly 30 years.
Representative Stevens is ready to do the hard work of building on legislation this progress if reelected. In her, Michiganders will always have a champion who puts their safety first. With so much on the line this fall, voters need to mobilize like never before and send Representative Haley Stevens back to Washington DC. With her leading the way in a renewed gun safety majority, a safe future is possible.
