D · U.S. House, MI-9 · Tier 3/4
Tier 3/4, between “Pro-Israel, critical” and “Critical / conditions aid”
His campaign platform, under “A Strong America Is A Force For Peace,” lists “Our allies are our responsibility; stop the genocide in Palestine” beside “Confident diplomacy, not constant conflict.” A CNC machinist and homesteader, he runs on manufacturing, Medicare for All and family farms.
A 3/4. He names the genocide in his own voice, paired with “Our allies are our responsibility,” and keeps no pro-Israel frame beside it. But it is one platform line: no pledge on weapons, military aid or Block the Bombs, and the word alone does not carry a challenger past 3/4. Open to a clean 4 if he commits to withholding arms; a flat 3 is the counter-case if a single line is too thin.
