Jeremy Moss and Abdul El-Sayed are young, diverse progressive millennials in Michigan who are on the ballot for federal office in November. But Moss says he’s not yet ready to endorse his party’s nominee for Senate.
Moss is the Democratic nominee for Congress in a safe suburban Detroit seat. He is eager to come to Washington with Democratic majorities in both chambers of Congress. “We need to ensure that Trump’s cruelty and chaos is stopped, and specifically also to ensure that Trump isn’t capable of selecting younger and more conservative and extreme judges who will serve a lifetime,” the 40-year-old Moss told Slate.
