Who is Mike Bouchard Jr?

Mike Bouchard is the son of a career politician who got his start at a lobbying firm that worked for drug companies and health insurers – the same industries charging Michigan families more for health care and prescription drugs. Maybe that’s why Bouchard supported the law that drove up premiums 58 percent and is projected to kick 32,000 people in the district he wants to represent.

02 · What it costs

Costs are up in Michigan.

Housing is up $894. Gas is up $651. Deductibles hit record highs, rising more than $1,000 on average. And under the law Republicans passed last year, 32,000 people in this district are going to get kicked off their health insurance. Bouchard praised that law. He said it delivered more for Michigan working families “than most Congresses.”

03 · The alternative

Christina Hines is running to lower costs.

Hines grew up in Warren and is raising three kids in Macomb County. As a former prosecutor who ran the Special Victims Unit, she knows how to fight. She’ll fight for working families to lower costs and get corporate PAC money out of politics.
