If you are wondering how the Republican controlled Michigan House Oversight is going today.

Rep. Jaime Thompson is testifying arguing that LGBTQIA+ students are not being bullied at school. Yet kids are instead bullied for being "pretty".

While this “deal” is being announced, I want to make it clear that there are 149 people that get to make this decision not 3.

We haven't been provided the details.

I look forward to analyzing the budget once it is provided to us.

Standing in solidarity with the Michigan Education Association and AFT Michigan demanding that schools are fully funded and the budget is passed on time!

We need to invest in public education not make cuts.

Our government helps fund Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This is immoral & illegal. Electeds & orgs must send a message to MI’s Senators and Reps: demand no more weapons for Israel, allow aid in Gaza, and restore visas for Palestinians.

Tax breaks, incentives would have amounted to $40B for Flint-area semiconductor project

Officials revealed the total price tag of incentives offered to a company that had considered bringing a semiconductor project to Genesee County.

$40 Billion to one company.

$6.24 Billion in state tax breaks.
$18 Billion in local tax breaks.
$16 Billion in federal tax breaks.

With the State portion alone we could buy the Detroit Lions.

Records: Michigan offered more than $6B in failed bid to land chip factories - Bridge Michigan

State documents show that Michigan was willing to exchange billions in cash and tax breaks to land a proposed semiconductor manufacturing complex near Flint. The company pulled the plug instead.

We don't have enough money for clean water, fully funded schools, or drivable roads.

Yet Michigan’s economic development office offered more than $6 BILLION in corporate handouts to ONE single company, and yet Sandisk still didn't come.

Duggan does not have our interests at heart. Just look to his donors.

“A Metro Times analysis of Duggan’s fundraising shows a sizable share comes from donors of President Donald Trump, GOP party leaders, and conservative power brokers with vested interests in state policy.”

Federal Republicans just gave one of the largest tax cuts to the rich in US History.

Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the MEDC offered over $6 BILLION to a single corporation.

This is Oligarchy.

This bill could have massive implications on what we in the Michigan House need to do in order to fill the funding gaps created by these Trump-backed tax cuts. If this legislation passes, it would also serve as one of the biggest handouts to the wealthy in US History. (2/2)

Today, Trump’s bill passed the Senate. If it passes in the House it would cut $930B from Medicaid over the next decade. This bill also makes major cuts to SNAP (food stamp) benefits. We are in the middle of budget season in Lansing. (1/2)

The question everyone needs to be asking themselves is:

Should presidents alone have the power to enter us into war?

The answer is no. Trump just took an illegal action. It cannot stand.
