Haley Stevens talks with supporters at Coast Guard Festival in Grand Haven Thursday

The Democrat Haley Stevens stumped along the lakeshore Thursday in her bid for Michigan’s open U.S. Senate seat against primary candidate Abdul El-Sayed

Stevens scheduled stops in Holland, Muskegon, and Grand Haven where she visited the Coast Guard Festival, meeting with supporters and answering questions about how she would address rising costs affecting tourism in the state.

The current Congresswoman noted the impact of tariffs.

"This president was very busy trying to make deals with other countries but sort of forgetting about the deals we have here in Michigan. When you start a trade war with Canada, it does impact tourism, and it does impact the money people have in their pockets.”

Stevens called the Trump administration’s tariffs “erratic” and bad for small business.
