Michigan House Republicans want to ban Ranked Choice Voting (RCV).
While 5 localities already approve the use of RCV in their local elections.

This #EarthDay2025 I’m reminded of what we leave behind:
Broken wires. Empty vape cartridges. Rusted car parts. Cigarette butts. Plastic wrappers. Shattered glass bottles.
