Fox News
GOP Rep. Liz Cheney has crossed the aisle, endorsing Democrat Rep. Elissa Slotkin in her race against Republican state Sen. Tom Barrett in Michigan's 7th district.
"I’m proud to endorse Elissa Slotkin. Serving together on the Armed Services Committee, I have come to know Elissa as a good and honorable public servant who works hard for the people she represents, wants what’s best for the country, and is in this for the right reasons," Cheney said. "While Elissa and I have our policy disagreements, at a time when our nation is facing threats at home and abroad, we need serious, responsible, substantive members like Elissa in Congress." Ronn Blitzer is a reporter for Fox News Digital covering politics and breaking news.
Slotkin said she is "grateful" for Cheney's support, even though they "certainly don’t agree on every issue."
