Democrat Curtis Hertel is a congressional candidate for Michigan District 7. He is as open-borders as anyone could be and has no interest in deporting anyone. [Here Ye, Tren de Aragua, Michigan Dist. 7 is your new base of operations.]
Hertel was Gov. Whitmer’s top lobbyist.
He is running against Tom Barrett, a popular Republican and 22-year combat veteran. Barrett is up 4.1%.
“I ask that you should respect those that have tried to come here, because even if they haven’t done it legally, we owe a debt like they took a risk for their family. There’s nothing more American, and I’m getting hit right now because I said that Lansing police should not have the ability to just ask people for their papers. It is unwelcoming as a community. Like, I don’t believe in it.”
As for working with Republicans to deport everybody, he will not.
“No, I don’t have an interest in deporting anybody.“

Hertel pretends he’s bipartisan. NOT SO!
In the State Senate, the real Curtis Hertel sided with his progressive colleagues and backed radical far-left policies time and again:
- Hertel advocated for sanctuary cities and said local governments shouldn’t report illegal immigrants to ICE.
- He was “proud” to support a liberal 45-cent gas tax increase that even Gov. Whitmer admitted was a bad idea.
- And he opposed promoting American energy independence and decreasing our reliance on foreign oil.
What’s even more telling, immigration and the economy are already the top two concerns of Michigan voters. No wonder Curtis Hertel is hoping to hide his partisan, anti-border security and anti-American energy record.

Maybe this is why Harris/Biden are giving these invaders billions of our tax dollars at the expense of the wellbeing of the American citizens who pay the taxes.
I suggest Hertel pay whatever he thinks he owes with his own money. Better yet send Hertel on the deportation plane with the illegal aliens and he can pay whomever he wants with his own money as long as he does it from somewhere outside the US. Nutjob.
I owe them a quick and final trip out of my fricking country.
This dumbass Democrat has got it all wrong. We don’t owe illegal aliens anything but they owe us big time for all the money and services we’ve given them. It’s time to get them all the hell out of our country and go back to vetting potential immigrants in an orderly and legal manner.
If Gretchen can be re-elected by Michigan morons, why leave out an open borders idiot?
I wouldn’t be surprised to see him win by 5-10 pts. It IS Michigan, afterall.
