NRCC Statement on MI-07 Primary Election

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) released the following statement on Michigan’s 7th Congressional district primary election:

“The choice is clear: A 22-year Iraq War veteran and military helicopter pilot, or a 22-year politician riddled with corruption.

“Tom Barrett is a proven leader and relentless fighter for veterans and workers in Michigan. He will deliver results for Michiganders with common sense leadership.

“Curtis Hertel is the epitome of a slimy career politician desperately searching for the next rung up the ladder. His long history of corruption and sleazy politics is no match for the hardworking Michiganders who will reject Hertel in November.” – NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
