Representative John James (R-MI) announced that he is running to be the next governor of Michigan, explaining that the State “has suffered enough” and is “hero due to the lack of strong and competent leadership.”
In a publication about X, James shared A statement that his decision to run for Governor or Michigan was “after a deep reflection, prayer and conversations” with his family. James highlighted how the State “has been dominated by radical and out of contact policies” and how the State has “lost around 300,000 manufacturing jobs since NAFTA.”
“I apply for governor of the great state of Michigan,” James said in his statement. “This decision occurs after deep reflection, prayer and conversations with my wife and children. We will have the manifestations and balloons soon, but first, I want to share exactly why I am doing this.”
“Our state has suffered enough. Michigan is strong,” James added. “Our people are strong. But we are stopping the lack of strong and competent leadership leadership with experience in the real world in the areas that most need.”
James said that “during the last seven years, Michigan has been dominated by out -of -contact radical policies that have hurt” people and communities in the state.
“We have lost more than 300,000 manufacturing jobs such as NAFTA, in a third of our industrial base,” James’s statement continued. “That is unacceptable.”
James stressed that he had “directed a Michigan automotive business that created jobs” and has “used the United States uniform in combat.”
“I don’t leave people behind, and now I won,” James continued. “It’s time to get michigan’s government out of fantasyland and back to common sense.
