💨 Abstract

Bridget Brink, former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, announced her candidacy for Congress in Michigan's competitive 7th District. She resigned in protest over President Trump's policies towards Ukraine and aims to challenge "extremists" and powerful influences. Brink, a longtime diplomat, seeks to win the seat back for Democrats in the 2026 midterm elections. The district flipped to Republicans in the previous election.
