We were in DC meeting with Michigan lawmakers to say: protect our communities—don’t fund detention and deportation. Stand with the people and Michigan United and vote against the upcoming budget reconciliation bill.

The bill gives billions to the rich while cutting from programs we depend on while harming our immigrant community.

Michigan United fights for you.

Mop Up Michigan

Michigan’s government should work for people, not powerful corporations.

Whether you’ve got five minutes or five hours, your time matters. We’re going to need volunteers to collect signatures, knock doors, spread the word, and help bring this ballot initiative to life.

Care Over Cost

We hold health insurers accountable for covered but unpaid benefits. Together, we are working to transform our health care system to put people over profit.

Transformative Justice

We believe that we can keep our communities safe from crime and reduce the number of people in prison. We're working to reform the policies of the police, schools, prosecutors, as well as reform sentencing guidelines and improve release services.

Election Protection

We're on a mission to safeguard the integrity of every election, ensuring that the democratic process remains fair, accessible, and representative of all voices.

Immigrant Rights

Join us in our fight for a brighter future, where every person, regardless of their immigration status, is afforded the same rights, opportunities, and respect as any other Michigander.
