William Lawrence Is Running in a Purple Michigan District — on His Pro-Palestine Credentials
William Lawrence, a co-founder of the Sunrise Movement, is running for a purple Michigan congressional district on progressive issues including a moratorium on data centers and labeling Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocide. His campaign faces opposition from centrists and a shadowy group running misleading ads. Abdul El-Sayed, a Michigan Senate candidate, has endorsed Lawrence, aligning with his grassroots-focused approach.
