Kyle Blomquist for U.S. Congress
@blomquist4congress
Architect, father, & life-long Yooper running for U.S House in Michigan's 1st District. I believe that your basic needs - healthcare, housing, livable income, etc. - should be treated as human rights. That isn't radical.🌹 blomquistforcongress.com
Last day of early voting here in Michigan and our volunteers are out doing the work, knocking the doors, making the calls, and sharing the vision. Make your voice heard on or before August 4th!
I'm proud to have the support of so many community organizations, activists, and regular people outside of the political mainstream. This campaign has worked to unify working-class people, reject the status quo, and build something better together.
"There's something far worse [...] than being called a socialist here in Northern Michigan, and that's being called a Democrat." Partisanship is our greatest hurdle, not policy. Yoopers and Northern Michiganders are starved for something different. That's what we're offering.
Hi everyone, it's Megan again. 👋 We're in the final days before the August 4th primary election. If we want real people-powered campaigns to succeed, it's going to take all of us. Please support Kyle with your votes, knocks, calls, texts, and donations. ❤️
The mission of my campaign is to drastically improve the lives of working-class Americans. Changing how our healthcare system operates is one of the most important ways we accomplish that. That's why I support Medicare for All, public clinics to fill rural service gaps, and safe staffing.
I'm the only candidate in Michigan's 1st District that supports a full moratorium on data center construction. Vote for Kyle Blomquist on or before August 4th!
Voted early with my Ride-or-Die ❤️ Make your voice heard in the Democratic primary on or before August 4th!
Big Tech will continue to exploit & abuse our communities until our leaders take a stand. I'm the only candidate in Michigan's 1st District that supports a full moratorium on data center construction. We must prevent the cruel invasions we've seen in Dafter & Saline Townships.
The Great Lakes contain 21% of the world's freshwater. Michigan's 1st District touches 3 of the 5 lakes. I'm the only candidate who calls for the shut down of Line 5, a full moratorium on data center construction, and honoring of Treaty obligations to our Native tribes.
Join me and working-class champions from all over Michigan for a virtual townhall this afternoon!🌹
We're well on our way to winning this seat for working-class people here in Northern Michigan. Finishing the job is going to take all of us, right now! We have another phone bank today at 5:30 PM (EST). Check out the link in the comments and RSVP for details! 🌹
Come stay cool with us! I'll see you all this Wednesday at our Traverse City townhall (even if I have to squint). 😎
The same people that gave us Trump twice and a GOP trifecta are always the ones preaching "electability". Pushing a bold agenda to drastically improve the lives of working-class people is not only electable, it's the only way to ensure that elections mean anything at all.
Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸 250 years ago, we demanded our independence from the British crown. As it was then, the powerful today will not give us the justice we deserve willingly. It's something we must fight for together.
Headed back to the Keweenaw! See you all tonight at our townhall event in Hancock. If you're tired of re-packaging the same establishment rot and want in on the wave of unbought candidates centering working-class people, come help us cause a ruckus in the U.P.
Honored to stand with EUP Solidarity and the people of Sault Ste. Marie against the Big Tech machine. The will of the people in the U.P. and Northern Michigan is crystal clear: ❌ No more data centers ❌ No more mass surveillance ✅ Protect our communties & environment ✅ Empower the working class
Donate NOW before the end of the quarter! We're the only campaign working to guarantee healthcare and housing, end war and genocide, and stop data centers. Please give what you can.
Wherever you are across Michigan's Mighty & Massive 1st District, I'll see you there.
We had a great night at our townhall in Escanaba on Wednesday. The energy and enthusiasm was infectious. Thank you for all that shared their stories and asked their questions. This is what the work should look like.
The people of Northern Michigan don't want data centers invading our communities. Join me and EUP Solidarity this Saturday at a Rally Against the Machine in Sault Ste. Marie. However you vote or pray, it's time we join our voices to say NO to data centers, mass surveillance, and AI automation.
See you Wednesday in Escanaba! Bring your friends and family, even if they don't vote like you do. If we're serious about winning power, it is going to take all of us.
I'm proud to accept the endorsement of Kelli Van Ginhoven, Delta County Commissioner and Candidate for Michigan's 38th Senate District. "I first met Kyle last August. Since then, I have seen him repeatedly show up, speak up, and stand up for all of us. He’s the real deal."
Happy Fathers' Day to all the other lucky dads! 🍋 This year it just so happens to land on my boys' 8th birthday. They're my top two reasons to run. Thankful to get a couple days at home to celebrate with them.
None of us are free until all of us are free.
Join our campaign and The People’s Coalition this Friday for a voter education and community canvassing event in Traverse City. Sign up here: tinyurl.com/PC-Canvass6-19 Thanks to our event partners Northwest MI DSA🌹, Mideast: Just Peace, Voters Not Politicians, and Statewide Indivisible Michigan!
I’m honored to accept the endorsement of Eastern U.P. Solidarity, an Indivisible chapter from Chippewa County! I’m proud to stand beside EUP Solidarity as we fight for a just future, where our needs are met, our environment is preserved, and our dignity is guaranteed.
This campaign was never about me. I'm just some guy. This has always been about the people. And holy shit, did the people ever show up last night. I'm humbled by the crowd and reception in Traverse City. 52 days until the Primary. Let's do the damn thing.
Join me and my friends TONIGHT in Maple City! 🌹 Building the world that the working class deserves takes us all. I'm proud to be in this fight with you.
