“Bridget is exactly the kind of leader who can win — and deliver — for Michigan.”

LANSING, MI – Today, Square One — which seeks out the most promising Democratic women, people of color, and members of the LGBTQ+ community to run for Congress in long-overlooked red districts and states —endorsed Bridget Brink for Congress in Michigan’s 7th District

“Bridget is running for Congress to take on rising costs and fight for Michigan families,” said Tony Vargas, Executive Director of Square One. “She understands how global decisions impact everyday life — and as a mom of two boys, she’s navigating those same challenges at home. That’s why this fight is personal, and why she’ll bring battle-tested leadership to deliver for people — not the powerful. This is a must-win race, and flipping this seat is critical to moving our country forward. Bridget is exactly the kind of leader who can win — and deliver — for Michigan.”

“Before I was the first woman to serve as U.S. Ambassador in a war zone, I was raised by a single mom who worked multiple jobs to make ends meet,” said Bridget Brink, former U.S Ambassador to Ukraine and Democrat running for Michigan’s 7th Congressional District. “I believe deeply in Square One’s mission of breaking barriers and electing leaders who fight for what’s right. With the Trump administration’s corruption and chaos making life harder for Michigan families, that kind of partnership is more important than ever. I’m grateful for Square One’s support and look forward to working together to flip the House, hold this administration accountable, and deliver for MI-07.”

Square One seeks out the most promising Democratic women, people of color, and members of the LGBTQ+ community to run for Congress in long-overlooked red districts and states, and provides the high-impact, hands-on support they need to launch, run, and win their groundbreaking campaigns — against all the odds. Square One has helped elect Rep. Lauren Underwood, Rep. Sharice Davids, Senator Angela Alsobrooks, Senator Ruben Gallego, and more.
