What's behind this
Representative Haley Stevens withdrew her endorsement of a Democratic Senate candidate in Michigan to support Republican Mike Rogers, prompting a Democratic backlash that she has defended as the 2026 midterm elections begin.

The broader midterm contests, including key Senate and House races across multiple states, are shaping the battle for the congressional majority.
