Rebekah Warren is an effective lawmaker with progressive values
Rebekah Warren will be my choice in the state Senate Democratic primary for Ann Arbor, not only because she shares my progressive values, but also because she’s proven to be an effective lawmaker and leader.
As noted by AnnArbor.com last year, Representative Warren led the efforts to pass the Michigan Children's Safe Products Act, which would provide parents with a right-to-know about toxic chemicals in toys. This followed her sponsorship and shepherding of legislation to phase-out the Michigan sale of products laden in mercury.
After the Wall Street meltdown, Toyota’s sticky accelerators, and the myriad other product recalls I hear about every day, I appreciate that Rebekah Warren can wade through murky political interests to increase consumer awareness and protect my family’s health. There indeed is someone in the Michigan Legislature fighting for my safety and my health, and that of my two small children.
Michigan’s health and environment are interconnected, and I am glad I can trust someone like Rebekah to prioritize my family’s safety in an effective, common sense fashion.

If Ms Warren is indeed a "progressive", then, she is exactly the type of politician who isnt needed by citizens of Michigan or Ann Arbor.
