Key Steps to a Stronger Michigan

Tuesday, Jun 13, 2017

There are three major items before the legislature that need swift action that are essential to strengthening our state: 1) finalizing the budget so communities and schools know what resources they have for the year 2) addressing unfunded pension liabilities to protect public employee benefits in a sustainable manner, and 3) improving Michigan’s ability to compete for large scale projects with hundreds of good paying jobs.

While some have tried to link these issues together, they are individual issues and each needs to be addressed on its own merits.

If you haven’t already reached out to your lawmakers to encourage their support for these changes, there’s no time to waste. Action simply must be taken before the Legislature leaves for summer break, so we can continue moving forward with aggressive plans to recruit and expand key business locations and fix our state’s long-term budget issues.

The time is now. Please call or connect online with your lawmakers this week and urge them to move forward.
