“Callie Barr knows what it means to show up for hard-working families, and Elect Democratic Women is proud to endorse her campaign for Michigan’s 1st Congressional District,” said Liz Gallagher, executive director of Elect Democratic Women.
“As a military spouse, mom, teacher, and attorney, Callie has turned her firsthand experience into advocacy for veterans and families. Raised in Traverse City and Cheboygan, she understands the pressures Northern Michigan families face, like finding housing they can afford, accessing health care, and keeping up with grocery costs. Callie is ready to bring that experience and commitment to serving her community to Congress.
“Elect Democratic Women is working to elect Democratic women like Callie across the country as we build toward a historic 100 Democratic women in Congress and fight for a Democratic majority.”
“I’m honored to have the support of Elect Democratic Women as we fight to lower costs for families across Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula,” said Callie Barr, Democratic candidate for Congress in Michigan’s 1st Congressional District. “People here deserve to be able to buy a home, see a doctor, and put food on the table. I’m grateful to have EDW’s support as we work to make Congress deliver for working families.”
