§3What they've said on the issues
Why this matters: These are positions the candidate has stated publicly — on their campaign website or in public statements — summarized in plain words with a link to where they said it. Issues they haven't spoken about publicly are left out.
Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.
Each issue has its own range of views. A position is marked on that range only when the candidate's own statement clearly matches one option; there is no overall left–right score.
Health Care
His campaign website says drugs should not cost more in Michigan than in Canada, and that he would expand access to TrumpRx, which it says uses the government's bulk buying power to lower prices, and speed approval of lower-cost generics.5
Housing
His campaign website says he would expand 529 savings plans to cover first-time home down payments and help families build credit through on-time rent payments.6
His campaign website says he would roll back housing regulations, work with states to cut red tape and create residential housing zones where all new construction is tax-free.6
§4Money
Why this matters: Campaigns report where their money comes from and how much they have left. Outside groups that spend on their own, without coordinating with the campaign, report that too.

Where the money came from
Outside spending
Groups spending independently reported $45,590,005 supporting and $45,011,652 opposing Mike Rogers this cycle, primary and general combined, in the 24- and 48-hour reports the law requires for larger expenditures, filed through October 26, 2026.8
| Group | Supporting | Opposing |
|---|---|---|
| WinSenate | — | $26,941,394 |

Smaller expenditures that appear only on a group's regular monthly or quarterly report aren't in these totals, so the full amounts can be somewhat higher. When a group amends a report, only its latest version is counted.
§5Financial disclosures
Why this matters: Federal candidates and members of Congress must report their assets, income, debts and outside jobs, and members must report stock trades. These filings show possible conflicts of interest.
Senate candidates and senators file with the Senate's own disclosure system, which asks each visitor to agree to its terms before searching, so we can't link straight to a filing. You can search for Mike Rogers at efdsearch.senate.gov9.
