Tier 3, “Pro-Israel, critical”
Her campaign’s issues page lists, under Peace & Unity, “Stop US military, diplomatic, and economic warmaking on Gaza, Yemen, Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Somalia, Nigeria, and more,” and says “I 100% align with the Green Party of Michigan 2026 Platform” (read Oct 2026). A community organizer, doula, mediator and founder of the nonprofit Levadeh, she runs on a universal basic income, reparations, single-payer health care and housing.
A 3, on party wording and a thin record. Her issues page says “Stop US military, diplomatic, and economic warmaking on Gaza” in a list of seven conflicts, and that she aligns “100%” with the Green Party of Michigan’s 2026 platform. The Gaza line is the state party’s platform plank, carried word for word into a general anti-war list; her own words name neither Israel, the genocide nor an arms embargo, and beside the “100%” she writes that her affiliation does not mean she stops “developing my own positions.” One party-written line and a blanket endorsement of a platform say less about where she stands than the same words would in her own voice. Counter-case: 3/4 or toward the critical end. She posted the plank on her own campaign page as her position, and the platform she backs “100%” names “Israel’s genocide on Palestinians” and supports a boycott, divestment and sanctions on the Israeli government.
