Mayor Abdullah Hammoud: Hey everyone, it’s Mayor Hammoud, and I’m here to tell you that I am so enthused about the campaign that our Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is running to be Michigan’s next governor. She not only has my support, she also has my endorsement. And I’m encouraging you all to come out and vote not only this August for the primary election, but to make sure we keep the momentum rolling through all the way through November.


Secretary Jocelyn Benson: That’s right. Thank you, Mayor Hammoud, for your endorsement and your incredible leadership here in Dearborn and all across our state. We’re going to work together to ensure here in Dearborn and in every community we’re driving down costs, making life more affordable, creating great, well-paying jobs, improving our schools, and working together to keep everyone safe. We can do this. We can win, and we can make Michigan the best place in the nation for all of us to call home. So let’s get it done.
