ICYMI: Detroit Metro Times: Whitmer Touts More Than 750 Bipartisan Bills Signed into Law

Picture
LANSING, Mich. -- Governor Gretchen Whitmer today announced she has signed over 750 bills into law, 100% of which have been bipartisan. These laws have had the collective impact of lifting up Michiganders from all backgrounds and parts of our state, with a major focus on lowering costs for Michiganders, fixing roads and bridges, lowering the cost of education, and creating a healthier Michigan. 
 
DETROIT METRO TIMES: Whitmer touts more than 750 bipartisan bills signed into law 
 
Key Points:  
 
“The legislation includes the largest education investment in state history to close the funding gap between schools in Michigan and expand access to preschool programs for 22,000 children. Whitmer also signed legislation to reform Michigan's auto insurance system to guarantee lower rates for drivers, earning praise at the time from Senate majority leader Mike Shirkey.”

“During the pandemic, Whitmer also rolled out a first-of-its-kind Futures for Frontliners program modeled on the G.I. Bill to provide tuition-free community college for essential workers, as well as the Michigan Reconnect Grant Program, which aims to help more than 4.1 million Michiganders without a college degree to earn a tuition-free associate degree or skills certificate. 
 
“And then there was her 2018 campaign pledge to ‘fix the damn roads.’ On that front, her office boasts that it has repaired, rebuilt, or replaced more than 10,000 lane miles of road and more than 900 bridges, supporting nearly 82,000 jobs.”

“Whitmer added that she plans to work with the legislature to roll back the retirement tax, which she says would save about half a million households an average of $1,000 per year. ‘We're working together to make a real impact for Michiganders and their families, and I'm proud to always put them first,’ she said. ‘At over 750 bipartisan bills, I'm just getting started and I'll always work with anyone who wants to get things done for Michigan.’”
