She has consistently used her platform to champion issues affecting women, the LGBTQ+ community, and low-income families.

Her commitment to intersectionality has earned her widespread respect and admiration among diverse groups.

In recognizing Gay-Dagnogo's leadership, the MDPBC also issued a call to action to all Democrats in Michigan.

The caucus emphasized the need to continue fighting for policies that promote racial justice, economic equity, and opportunity for all.
