MARK
PIOTROWSKI
for
State Representative
Protecting Taxpayers. Defending Property. Restoring Accountability.
Mark believes government should work for the people who build, raise, and grow Michigan — not bureaucrats or special interests.
​
His priorities are simple: lower the tax burden, protect property rights, strengthen public safety, support skilled trades and local schools, and keep decision-making close to home.
​
Strong conservative leadership. Practical. No nonsense. Results.
PUBLIC SAFETY

​​​Michigan families deserve safe neighborhoods and secure borders.
​
Too often, law-abiding citizens feel overlooked while crime goes unaddressed and bureaucrats dictate public safety priorities. As State Representative, Mark will:
​
-
Stand with law enforcement: Let cops do their jobs without political second-guessing or restrictive policies that handcuff their ability to protect us.​
​
-
Support ICE and uphold the rule of law: Cooperation between federal and local law enforcement is essential to stop criminal activity and keep dangerous individuals from slipping through the cracks.​
​
-
Support tougher penalties for trafficking deadly drugs like fentanyl and equip law enforcement to hold dealers accountable.
​
-
Focus on results, not rhetoric: Safe streets, fewer repeat offenders, and community-oriented policing that respects citizens and supports officers who serve with courage.
​
Mid-Michigan families deserve real public safety, not slogans from politicians trying to get a job. Mark will always stand with the men and women who put their lives on the line for our families.
REFORM EGLE & the DNR

Michigan residents deserve strong property rights and equal treatment under the law.
​
Agencies like EGLE and the DNR should not operate above the standards applied to other enforcement bodies — issuing excessive fines, imposing intrusive orders, or entering private property without a warrant.
​
They must follow the same rules as everyone else.
​
Mark believes:
​
-
No agency should wield unaccountable power. EGLE and the DNR must protect our environment without violating property rights or threatening jobs.​
​
-
Families and farmers should be able to use and improve their land without fear of arbitrary orders, excessive fines, or bureaucratic overreach.​
​
-
We can protect our lakes, rivers, and farmland while also protecting due process and constitutional limits on government power.
​
Regulatory agencies must be transparent, accountable, and subject to the same checks and balances as every other arm of government.
LOCAL CONTROL

Decisions that affect our neighborhoods should be made by the people who live there, not distant bureaucrats in Lansing.​
​
Mark supports:
​
-
Empower local governments and local school boards, where parents and community leaders are closest to the issues and best equipped to make decisions.
​
-
Return decision-making to local communities, where residents have a direct voice and government answers to the people it serves.
​
-
Rejecting one-size-fits-all mandates. What works for Detroit doesn’t necessarily work for Bay, Saginaw, Tuscola, or Genesee counties.
​
Local control means better outcomes, stronger communities, and government that listens.
SMALLER GOVERNMENT

Michigan is drowning in unnecessary red tape — and families, farmers, and small businesses are paying the price.
​
Mark will:
​
-
Fight to shrink government’s footprint where it infringes on personal and economic freedom.
​
-
Streamline regulations that raise costs, stall progress, and block growth.
​
-
Promote job creation and economic opportunity by eliminating outdated bureaucratic hurdles.
​
A stronger Michigan is one where families and entrepreneurs are free to build, grow, and succeed — not buried under government mandates.
PROTECT OUR FARMS
Michigan farmland is a legacy — and it should stay in Michigan hands.
​
Mark supports:
​
-
Stopping foreign buyouts of Michigan farmland. The land that feeds our families should not be sold to the highest bidder overseas.
​
-
Backing family farms that sustain our economy, protect our land, and keep food on American tables.
​
-
Protecting farmland and property rights without burying farmers in unnecessary regulation.
​
Farmers are already facing rising fuel costs, tighter margins, and policies that make it harder to keep farms in the family. Michigan should lower energy costs, cut red tape, and enact policies that protect generational farms — not push them out.

A STRONGER, FREER MICHIGAN
Mark’s priorities reflect the real concerns of Michigan families:
​
-
Safe communities and secure neighborhoods.
​
-
The right to own and use property without government overreach.
​
-
Local voices shaping local decisions.
​
-
A government that works for the people — not against them.
​
-
Protecting what we’ve built and securing a stronger future for our children.
​
Michigan needs strong conservative leadership grounded in common sense and accountability. Leadership that lowers taxes, protects property rights, strengthens public safety, and keeps decision-making close to home.
​
If you believe Michigan can be stronger, freer, and better governed, join Mark and help restore responsible leadership in Lansing.
