I’m Callie Barr. I’m running for Congress because MI-01 deserves a representative who shows up and listens, someone rooted here, who works hard and puts people first. Let’s have real conversations to plan for a future we can actually afford.

Even though it's so cold that trees explode, that shouldn't be what's happening to your energy bills.

Utility bills are rising, and families are feeling it.

After critical FEMA infrastructure funds were denied, some MI01 residents saw electric bills jump $20/month just to cover interest on a $145M loan.

Families shouldn’t pay for federal failures. Everyone deserves an Affordable LIFE.

Bergman's response to what's happening in MN doesn't deal in Constitutionality or reality.

Join the movement to get Jack Bergman out of office.

This polar vortex has hit us like ❄️🥶, but we’ve got this. Here are some winter safety tips that keep us warm, safe, and smart this season.

The moment the Constitution stops applying to all of us is the moment it stops meaning anything. Only through the protection of the constitution do we have a shot for an Affordable LIFE.

Still true. Still powerful. Still exactly where we are. This is why representation matters and why our voices belong in Congress. Interview clip from @thedanicook.bsky.social

Snowy roads, cold temps, and big hearts. Thank you, Cheboygan, for showing up and being part of the conversation.

It's time that we prioritize an Affordable LIFE for MI01.

Freedom dies when the law is enforced selectively. Equal justice isn't negotiable.

Story Time! It may be too cold for my Malamute, but I still went out to the Northern Michigan Policy Conference. Because to make change, you show up. Some people don't. Know this - there's been an empty chair for far too long. I'm ready to fill it.

We’re building a movement, one conversation at a time.

Small monthly donations provide stability to help us plan, grow, and create something lasting. Together, we’re proving that real change is built one person at a time.

A MI family had to drop their insurance despite serious health conditions. Premiums, deductibles, and out-of-pocket costs are all rising. That’s not freedom, that’s a system failing working families.

This is why I’m fighting for an Affordable LIFE.

Happy National Michigan Day!

As a 5th generation Michigander, I have deep roots in this state and I will work hard to give residents in my district, MI-01, a more Affordable LIFE.

Jack Bergman hasn't held a town hall in 8 years. We need a representative in MI01 that LISTENS to our concerns.

I want to hear from you! What issues matter most to you?

On the road today - passed by the spot where Matt and I were married over 21 years ago 🥰 Keep on keepin' on.

If you know where this is, give a shout-out in the comments!
