Campaign themes

2018

Greimel’s campaign website stated the following:

Tim’s Opportunity Blueprint

  • Everybody who works deserves a place in the middle class. As House Democratic Leader, I successfully fought to increase the minimum wage and index it to inflation—a first in the history of our state. In Congress, I will support raising the federal minimum wage and indexing it to inflation.
  • Healthcare costs nearly doubled between 1999 and 2009, and they’re putting the squeeze on working families. In Lansing, I fought against Republicans and special interests like the Koch Brothers and the DeVos family and successfully expanded Medicaid—providing health insurance to 650,000 Michiganders. In Congress, I will work to improve the ACA by allowing anyone, regardless of age, to buy into Medicare.
  • A four year degree isn’t for everyone, but an education is. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports there are 6 million jobs that are unfilled because employers can’t find people with the right skills to fill them. In Congress, I will support career and technical education so we can close the skills gap and put more Americans to work.
  • The horrendous shape of Michigan’s roads costs the average Michigan driver $700 per year in automobile repairs, but the roads are just the most visible example of Republican malfeasance. The underground infrastructure in Flint and elsewhere has poisoned our children and endangered our communities. In Lansing, I introduced legislation to refund Michigan drivers with a tax credit for car damage from our roads, and I was the ONLY legislator to call on Governor Snyder to resign after the tragedy in Flint. In Congress, I will fight for infrastructure investments that fix the roads, upgrade our water lines and sewers, expand access to broadband, and bring regional transit to Southeast Michigan.
  • Over the last 40 years, union membership has declined, leaving us with decades of wage stagnation. In order to grow the middle class, we must protect employees’ rights to join a union and collectively bargain for better wages and benefits. In Lansing, I’ve stood up to Republican attacks on workers’ rights. In Congress, I will support the Employee Free Choice Act so that men and women can more easily collectively bargain for better pay and benefits.
  • Americans owe more than $1.3 trillion in student loan debt. The impact of the high cost of a college degree goes beyond limiting access—the crippling debt reduces small business start-ups among young people and stifles the housing market. We must give our students a path to debt-free higher education, and that starts with tuition-free community college. In Congress, I will work for tuition-free community college and debt-free four-year college, so that all young people have a shot at the American Dream regardless of their income or zip code.
  • Social Security cut poverty among retirees from 40% in the 1930s to under 10% today. Together, Social Security and Medicare are vital programs for tens of millions of American seniors. In Lansing, I fought back against Governor Snyder’s pension tax, because we shouldn’t balance budgets on the backs of seniors on a fixed income. In Congress, I will oppose any effort to privatize Medicare or reduce Social Security benefits for retirees.
  • I refuse to let our government kick anyone out of the only country they’ve ever known. Politicians in both parties tell us DREAMers need a path to citizenship but won’t take action, leaving thousands of our neighbors, who came here as children due to the decisions of others, with uncertainty instead of rights. I will push to pass the DREAM Act so 800,000 Americans—college students, workers, and military service members—get the legal recognition they deserve.
  • I strongly support the Second Amendment and citizens’ right to own guns for hunting and self-defense, but we need to enact common sense gun safety policies. We need to make sure we check the background of every gun buyer, keep guns out of the hands of domestic abusers and other criminals, limit clip size, and outlaw bump stocks that make rifles into machine guns.
  • If we want everyone to have a chance to be what they want to be when they grow up, we need to give all kids a great educational foundation. In Lansing, I fought to make our state recognize literacy as a fundamental human right. In Congress, I will support increasing early childhood education.
  • The only thing worse than getting sick is losing your income at the same time. In Congress, I will support efforts to make earned paid sick leave a guarantee for all workers.
  • Congress should promote the adoption of standardized Prescription Drug Monitoring Program systems, just as we did in Michigan, that would allow for interstate collaboration and data sharing through financial incentives to states and providers. Congress should also increase federal funding for DEA enforcement actions on doctors and pharmacies that far over prescribe and over dispense.
Congress must increase access to Naloxone. In Michigan, we took the important step of requiring first responders to carry Naloxone. This should be done at the federal level as well as mandating it be prescribed whenever an opioid is prescribed. Congress should also increase federal investment in effective drug treatment programs.
Drug companies must be held accountable. Congress should join cities and states that’ve already begun the process of seeking punitive damages from the drug companies who created, produced, and deceptively marketed opioid drugs. And, at the state level, we should repeal Michigan’s drug maker immunity law that denies victims access to justice.

Tim’s Government Reform Blueprint

  • The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) is an important tool for journalists and the public to monitor the government and hold elected leaders accountable. Outrageously, Congress exempted itself from FOIA. In Lansing, I fought for increased government transparency, by requiring the Governor and the legislature to comply with FOIA laws, and for the rights of victims of sexual assault to stay anonymous when public records from universities are released. In Congress, I will work to end the Congressional exemption from FOIA.
  • Over the past 20 years, the Office of Congressional Compliance has paid out 260 claims, totaling more than $15 million, to victims of sexual harassment in the workplace. When these payments are made, the victims are permanently silenced and the identities of the members of Congress who perpetrated the harassment are permanently hidden. It’s time to shine a light on the sexual harassers in Congress and for taxpayers to stop footing the bill for their abuse. In Congress, I will support efforts to require more transparency, overhaul the flawed complaint process, and provide better support for victims and whistleblowers.
  • Many seniors on fixed incomes can’t afford to make ends meet because of the increasing cost of prescription drugs. Medicare and the Veterans Affairs Department successfully negotiate prescription drug prices and, as a result, enjoy much lower costs. In Congress, I will support Medicare negotiating prescription drug pricing in order to save taxpayer’s money, and to give seniors much needed relief when buying their medications.

Tim’s Equality Blueprint

  • In most states, your boss can fire you because of your sexual orientation. That must change. The LGBT community deserves the law on their side when they face bigotry in the workplace, at school, and in public no matter where they are in the country. After passing a non-discrimination policy to prohibit Oakland County Government from discriminating against LGBT persons, I fought in Lansing to guarantee civil rights protections to LGBT people throughout our state. In Congress, I will fight to give every American the legal right to be themselves without fear of being fired or denied housing.
  • Republican politicians in Congress and state legislatures throughout the country are obsessed with standing between women and their doctors. In Lansing, I’ve battled back and stopped Republicans’ attempts to restrict access to reproductive healthcare. In Congress, I will always stand up for a woman’s right to choose.
  • “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.” Those words should be added to the Constitution to ensure every American enjoys the same status in society. In Congress, I will support adoption of the Equal Rights Amendment.
  • On average in the US, a woman is paid only 80 cents for every dollar paid to a man. As a State Representative, I backed legislation that would beef up protections for an employee who is paid unfairly and make it easier to know if they’re being paid less than their coworker. In Congress, I will support the Fair Pay Act so nobody gets paid less than they deserve for their work.

—Tim Greimel’s campaign website (2018)[3]

2016

Greimel's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[4]

As your state Representative, Tim will continue to:
  • Support equal funding for our schools to help them succeed in lowering class size, preserve programs and update technology and materials.
  • Empower our small businesses to revitalize our local economy by providing them with the support they need to grow and create jobs for our out-of-work residents.
  • Fight for a repeal of the state’s senior retirement tax, restoration of the Homestead Property Tax Credit, the $600 per-child tax deduction and the Earned Income Tax Credit so that Michiganders are our top priority, not corporate CEOs.
  • Maintain revenue sharing so our communities have the resources to keep our firefighters, EMTs and police officers on the job and our residents safe.
  • Fight to give Michigan workers a raise by increasing the state’s minimum wage, so that the hardworking men and women who put in an honest day’s work will get an honest day’s pay.
  • Bring transparency and accountability to Lansing and ensure that legislators remember that they work for the people, not for big business and special interests.
  • Fight to maintain local control for residents by opposing laws that give unelected and unaccountable emergency managers dictatorial powers to sell city assets, dissolve contracts and undercut democratically- elected local governments.[2]

2012

Greimel's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[5]

Creating Jobs And Improving Our Economy

Democratic primary overview

On August 7, Michigan Democrats selected Haley Stevens as their nominee for the seat being vacated by David Trott (R). The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) targeted this suburban Detroit seat in the general election, but it did not endorse a candidate in the primary.[6]

A late July poll showed Stevens, Suneel Gupta, Tim Greimel, and Fayrouz Saad as the leading candidates.[7] All said they would oppose Nancy Pelosi as House Democratic leader if elected.[8]

Stevens was a former Obama administration official who worked on providing subsidies for the automobile industry in the aftermath of the 2008 recession. She was endorsed by Hillary Clinton and the Michigan Teamsters and focused her campaign on the automobile company subsidies and her experience in manufacturing policy.[9]

Gupta, the fundraising leader, was an entrepreneur and the brother of CNN correspondent Sanjay Gupta. He received more than $1.3 million through the second quarter of 2018 and had the support of 314 Action, which backs candidates with scientific backgrounds.

Greimel, the former state House Minority Leader, secured the most endorsements in the field, including nods from former U.S. Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.), education groups, and labor unions. The Primary PAC spent more than $100,000 supporting his campaign.

Saad, another former Obama administration official, was aligned with the party's progressive wing. The Bernie Sanders-aligned Justice Democrats and Democracy for America both endorsed her. She emphasized that she would be the first Muslim woman to go to Congress.

Nancy Skinner also filed to run, but, as of July 27, she had not reported any fundraising.|after=}}

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Michigan

A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.

Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
