Legislation implementing Proposal 2 of 2022 passed the legislature, making several notable changes to voting in Michigan.

Legislation passed during the pandemic allowing for “cocktails to go” would be permanent under a bill passed by the legislature.

Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson announced the appointment of Jackie Venton as the new COO for the Department of State.

In our weekly “Five Things We’re Reading” feature we shared articles on when Americans are meeting key life milestones, how replacing people with AI might impact companies, and more.
