Nasser Beydoun wants to replace Michigan’s senior US Senator, Debbie Stabenow, when she retires at the end of her current term.
Beydoun is a small business owner who’s worked with the Arab American Civil Rights League and groups that tried to bridge differences between law enforcement and Middle Eastern communities.
He argues that gives him the experience to fight for those whose voices often go un-heard on Capitol Hill:
“I feel that America has lost the vision that the middle class is built on – good-paying jobs and small business. And there’s nobody really representing that segment of people in Congress or in the senate today.”
Beydoun faces a strong opponent in Democratic Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, who has won several tough elections and quickly assembled a sizable campaign war chest in her quest for the senate.
