Will Lawrence began political life as one of the original founders of the Sunrise Movement. After leaving Sunrise, he organized around tenants’ rights issues, including cofounding the Michigan Rent Is Too Damn High Coalition.
Will’s endorsements include Senator Bernie Sanders, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, the Sunrise Movement (of course), National Nurses United, Working Families Party, and the local Indivisible chapter. Equally important, when we surveyed grassroots climate hawks in the district, Will was the unanimous choice.
Will defeated not one, but two centrist democrats, one of whom campaigned with ExxonMobil Executives, in the August primary. And Michigan’s Seventh District is one of the few pure toss-up districts in the country. We've been working hard all the way down the stretch to turn out the vote for Will in this district, which will also trickle up and help El-Sayed win statewide. Most important, yes we Will send one of the fiercest climate hawks ever to run to Congress this November.
