As the business voice for Southeast Michigan, the Detroit Regional Chamber is committed to advancing policies and supporting leaders who will strengthen the Detroit Region’s economy, create jobs, and enhance Michigan’s competitiveness.
With that mission in mind, the Chamber PAC recently announced its endorsements for the November General Election. The Chamber PAC carefully reviewed races across the ballot, evaluating candidates from both political parties based on their commitment to economic growth, sound public policy, and a demonstrated ability to work across partisan lines to solve Michigan’s challenges.
The Chamber PAC’s endorsement process focuses on identifying leaders who understand the vital connection between a strong business climate and a thriving economy. After conducting candidate interviews and reviewing records and positions on key issues, the PAC announced endorsements in several races:
Mike Rogers for U.S. Senate
Rogers brings extensive experience in national security, federal policy, and economic issues amid significant uncertainty at both the national and global levels. His understanding of the challenges facing Michigan’s manufacturing and industrial sectors, combined with his experience navigating complex international issues, positions him to be a strong advocate for Michigan in the U.S. Senate.
Doug Lloyd for Attorney General
A career prosecutor with a strong commitment to the rule of law, Lloyd understands that a predictable and fair legal environment is essential to economic growth, investment, and public confidence.
Garlin Gilchrist II for Secretary of State
Gilchrist has demonstrated a commitment to maintaining secure, accessible, and trustworthy elections. Strong democratic institutions help provide stability and confidence that businesses and communities rely on to grow and prosper.
