Rooted in Service. Driven by Solutions.
MEET CHRIS GIRARD
Chris Girard grew up in Bay City, raised his family here, and has spent his career serving this community. He and his wife Molly fostered more than 40 children over 15 years and adopted five daughters. He led Do-All Inc. for 14 years, helping people with disabilities live independently. He served as a Bay City Commissioner for over a decade and was elected Mayor in 2024. Chris knows what working families in Bay County are dealing with because he lives it. He is running for State House to bring that same practical, people-first approach to Lansing and fight for the resources this district deserves.
WHAT I’LL FIGHT FOR IN LANSING
-

INFRASTRUCTURE & ROADS
Fix the roads and bridges our families and businesses depend on, invest in water systems, and make sure every community in District 96 gets its fair share.
-

MENTAL HEALTH & FAMILY SERVICES
Expand access to behavioral health care, support families in crisis, and make sure people can get help close to home without a waitlist.
-

PUBLIC SAFETY
Support first responders, invest in community policing, and give local departments the resources they need to keep neighborhoods safe.
-

AFFORDABILITY & GOOD-PAYING JOBS
Support local businesses, fight for workers, lower costs for families, and bring the kind of jobs to Bay County that you can actually build a life on.
-

COMMERCE & SMALL BUSINESS
Keep dollars local by backing the small businesses that are the backbone of our towns and townships across District 96.
-

TRAINING & WORKFORCE
Connect people to skilled trades training and good-paying careers right here at home so families do not have to leave to find opportunity.
