I’m going to try something a little different.
Of course any of you can check the journal from the state (from where I will be gathering this info) but hopefully, this makes it a little easier to find on a daily basis. ALSO, it may give me an opportunity to keep up with some of the crazy items our Michigan legislature will STILL offer up, and whom might be the flag bearer for fiscally irresponsible measures.
There WILL be commentary added from time to time, and a suggestion to look at the text of proposed legislation before it becomes permanent. Right Clicking on the links, and opening in new tab will open a new window to the bill’s sponsor and complete text as proposed on the state of Michigan’s site.
