Haley Maria Stevens (born June 24, 1983) is a U.S. representative from Michigan's 11th congressional district. She was elected in 2018, defeating Republican candidate Lena Epstein by roughly 23,000 votes.[1]
2018 campaign
Steven's campaign in 2018 promised to lower healthcare prices[2] and increase jobs. In addition, she was endorsed by the Human Rights Campaign,[3] a gay "rights" activist group.
Advertisement lie
One of Steven's campaign ads stated that she was "chief of staff" in Obama's "auto rescue",[2] despite Stevens actually only serving as a "confidential assistant".[4]
Positions
Stevens is a liberal progressive who supports LGBT "rights", useless stimulus spending, gun control, and minors getting abortions without parental consent.[5] A partisan shill, she sent out a meaningless tweet on March 26, 2020 calling President Trump a “mad man”.[6]
Absurd statements
Rep. Stevens is known for her erratic, high-tempered, and unpleasant personality.
THE NRA HAS GOT TO GO!!
While speaking at a town hall meeting held in a gun range, Stevens screamed: "THIS IS WHY THE NRA HAS GOT TO GO!!"[7]
Background checks
When asked on the rights of unborn children, Stevens bragged about co-sponsoring a bill to add background checks.[8]
Screaming on House floor
While speaking on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives presided by Anthony Brown (D-MD) about the coronavirus, Stevens went past her allotted one minute that was yielded to her, prompting Brown to pound the gavel.[9] Stevens, already agitated, began screaming without control, prompting Brown to yield an extra thirty seconds to her in the likewise manner of a parent pleasing a spoiled child.
Broken promises
Despite her campaign promises, Stevens has done nothing substantial to help job growth nor lower drug prices. Instead, she wastes time condemning Donald Trump's tweets[10] and voting to impeach him.[11]
Ethics violation
According to a watchdog group, Stevens violated ethics rules by fundraising off of her rant on the House floor over the coronavirus.[12]
