Democrat Michigan State Representative Karen Whitsett has announced she will not seek reelection and is walking away from politics entirely, saying the Democratic Party’s radical positions on abortion and LGBTQ issues have become incompatible with her Christian faith.
Whitsett, who represents Michigan’s 4th House District in parts of north and northwest Detroit, made the announcement last month.
She described the decision as a “spiritual decision” rooted in her commitment to Jesus Christ and the authority of Scripture.
In a recent interview on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle, Whitsett explained why she could no longer remain in the party or in elected office. She cited years of growing conflict that intensified over the last three to three-and-a-half years.
“Abortion, LGBTQ, things to our children, that are just imperative where parents no longer have control,” Whitsett explained.
