They are being scammed and preyed upon, all too often by those who are closest to them. My first bill when I became a state representative increased penalties for people who abused our seniors. As your next attorney general, I will continue to lead on this issue and protect our most vulnerable Michiganders. </p><p><b>Mental Health</b> </p><p>Too many Michiganders have been left behind during the mental health crisis plaguing our state right now. If we can get these people the help they need, we can help them lead better lives and prevent many crimes before they ever happen. As Speaker of the House, I created the House C.A.R.E.S. task force to look into how we can better solve this crisis. This task force is a good first step, but we still have a long way to go. As your next attorney general, I will use my experience working in the state’s first ever mental health court in Genesee County to work hard every day on finding comprehensive solutions for those struggling with mental illness and those closest to them. </p><p><b>Sexual Abuse</b> </p><p>From domestic relationships to doctors abusing their positions, too many Michiganders have been victims of sexual abuse. During one of the worst sexual abuse scandals in the history of the United States, Michigan was thrown into the spotlight in how we would prosecute Larry Nassar. I called for the resignation of Michigan State University president Lou Anna Simon when no one else would and helped pass legislation to reform MSU’s outdated procedures to make sure this never happens again. As your next attorney general, I will fight every day to punish the offenders and anyone who enabled them. </p><p><b>Opioid Crisis</b> </p><p>The opioid epidemic has devastated far too many Michigan families, and it is impacting communities all across our state. The simple truth is criminalizing opioid addiction is not always the right answer. For real healing to occur, we need to treat those suffering from addiction with compassion and care, but there can be no leniency for criminals who are responsible for this suffering. I will hold those responsible for this crisis accountable as the next top law enforcement officer in Michigan. </p><p><b>Civil Asset Forfeiture</b> </p><p>One of the most important doctrines in the American legal system is innocent until proven guilty. For too long, law enforcement agencies in Michigan have been able to confiscate property from those they simply thought were guilty. It is time we put an end to this injustice, and require a conviction before the government can seize your property.<sup id="cite_ref-leonardissues_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-leonardissues-3">[3]</a></sup> </p> </div> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Dana_Nessel_2"><a href="/Dana_Nessel" title="Dana Nessel">Dana Nessel</a></span></h3> <div style="height:400px;overflow:scroll;border:1px solid gray;margin:20px;padding:10px;"> <p><b>Stand up for Civil Rights</b> </p><p>Michigan needs an Attorney General who advocates for greater inclusion in civil rights laws. As Attorney General I will aggressively prosecute hate crimes and all cases of discrimination, protect women's rights to access healthcare, and defend immigrants from Federal overreach. </p><p><b>Protect our Environment</b> </p><p>I will be a tireless advocate for our environment. I will fight to shut down Enbridge Line 5, and any other pipeline that threatens the Great Lakes. I will enforce environmental laws, prosecuting polluters who harm our environment and threaten the health and safety of Michiganders </p><p><b>Defend Workers and Labor Unions</b> </p><p>For years elected officials have attacked laws that protect workplaces and workers rights. As Attorney General, I will make certain that Michiganders have safe workplaces, free from discrimination, sexual harassment, and environmental hazards. </p><p><b>Legalize and Regulate Cannabis</b> </p><p>Michigan needs common-sense licensing and regulation of cannabis manufacturing and distribution. When elected, I will work with the legislature and local law enforcement to ensure a safe market that keeps cannabis out of kids hands, and off the roads. </p><p><b>Protect Consumers and Students</b> </p><p>As Attorney General, I will go after bad actors, predatory lenders, and shady corporations that target Michigan residents. I will create an Auto Insurance Fraud Division to address our sky-high insurance rates, and I'll work to protect student borrowers from aggressive debt collection tactics. </p><p><b>Safeguard Senior Citizens</b> </p><p>Michigan Seniors need help too. As AG, I will increase resources to defend seniors from neglect, abuse, and exploitation. I'll ensure that unsafe assisted living facilities and in-home care providers are stripped of their licenses, issue scam notifications for public awareness, and vigorously prosecute cases of Medicaid fraud.<sup id="cite_ref-nesselissues_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nesselissues-5">[5]</a></sup> </p> </div> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Social_media">Social media</span></h2> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Twitter_accounts">Twitter accounts</span></h3> <p><a class="twitter-timeline" data-width="500" data-height="500" href="https://twitter.com/TomLeonard28">Tweets by Tom Leonard</a> <script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> <a class="twitter-timeline" data-width="500" data-height="500" href="https://twitter.com/dananessel">Tweets by Dana Nessel</a> <script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Facebook_accounts">Facebook accounts</span></h3> <p><i>Click the icons below to visit the candidates' Facebook pages</i>. </p><p><big><a href="/Republican_Party" title="Republican Party"><img alt="Republican Party" src="https://cdn.ballotpedia.org/images/f/fd/Ends.png" width="18" height="18" data-file-width="16" data-file-height="16" /></a> <b>Tom Leonard</b></big> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TomLeonard28/" title="Facebook" target="_blank" rel=" noreferrer noopener"><img alt="Facebook" src="https://ballotpedia.s3.amazonaws.com/images/thumb/7/7f/Bajaber_facebook.png/50px-Bajaber_facebook.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="50" srcset="https://ballotpedia.s3.amazonaws.com/images/thumb/7/7f/Bajaber_facebook.png/75px-Bajaber_facebook.png 1.5x, https://ballotpedia.s3.amazonaws.com/images/thumb/7/7f/Bajaber_facebook.png/100px-Bajaber_facebook.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="512" /></a> </p><p><big><a href="/Democratic_Party" title="Democratic Party"><img alt="Democratic Party" src="https://cdn.ballotpedia.org/images/d/d4/Electiondot.png" width="18" height="18" data-file-width="16" data-file-height="16" /></a> <b>Dana Nessel</b></big> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/DanaMIAG2018/" title="Facebook" target="_blank" rel=" noreferrer noopener"><img alt="Facebook" src="https://ballotpedia.s3.amazonaws.com/images/thumb/7/7f/Bajaber_facebook.png/50px-Bajaber_facebook.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="50" srcset="https://ballotpedia.s3.amazonaws.com/images/thumb/7/7f/Bajaber_facebook.png/75px-Bajaber_facebook.png 1.5x, https://ballotpedia.s3.amazonaws.com/images/thumb/7/7f/Bajaber_facebook.png/100px-Bajaber_facebook.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="512" /></a> </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Pivot_Counties">Pivot Counties</span></h2> <dl><dd><dl><dd><i>See also: <a href="/Pivot_Counties_by_state" title="Pivot Counties by state">Pivot Counties by state</a></i></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p>Twelve of 83 Michigan counties—14 percent—are <a href="/Pivot_Counties_by_state" title="Pivot Counties by state">Pivot Counties</a>.
