C. Mia Pettus
I · U.S. House, MI-8 · not rated
No documented position on Israel, Gaza or Palestine found. A former Philadelphia and Department of Defense police officer who publishes a civil-liberties Substack (PALS Report), the Libertarian nominee in MI-8 runs on constitutional limits, surveillance and privacy (FISA Section 702, Flock cameras), affordability and government transparency.
Not rated: her 2026 Ballotpedia survey, campaign site (home, About, Priorities with its 19-point platform, Campaign Updates), her League of Women Voters Vote411 answers and the 23 posts on her PALS Report Substack, as far as they can be read (seven are paywalled past a short preview), say nothing about Israel, Gaza or Palestine. Her August 2026 statement condemning an anti-Muslim demonstration in Dearborn defends religious liberty and does not mention Israel, and a September 2026 Substack essay mentions Candace Owens’ split with The Daily Wire over Israel only descriptively. Asked about inflation and the Iran war in an October 16, 2026 interview, she said “I am a non-interventionist. I don’t believe in the wars. I don’t support the wars. I want the wars to end,” and called for investing in Americans instead of “sending money overseas to kill innocent” civilians, naming no country. Her PALS Report Bluesky account, linked from her campaign site, reposted without comment in May and June 2026 an essay titled “Don’t Listen to Me. Listen to the Palestinians” on Israeli sexual assaults against Palestinians and a Guardian report on University of Michigan surveillance tied to Gaza protests; none of her own posts mention Israel, Gaza or Palestine. Unrated until a position is stated.
