As MLC’s Communications and Social Media Manager, Liz Gullett keeps clients informed and up-to-date on the goings on in Lansing and the Capitol.

Next Wednesday, August 30, Governor Gretchen Whitmer will outline her policy priorities for the fall. The legislature will return to their typical Tuesday – Thursday session schedule in September and these are likely to be many of the items they will focus on.

“What Next Address”:

    • Address what items she would like to work with the House and Senate to address.
    • According to the governor, the proposals will lower costs, make Michigan more competitive, expand opportunity, and protect people’s fundamental rights.

How to Watch:

    • The governor’s office pointed people to her Facebook and YouTube pages to watch the address at 11 a.m.
