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.

Over the past week, we covered these topics on the MLC Blog…

After more than thirty years, MLC partner Brendan Ringlever shared lessons that only experience can teach.

After making changes, the Senate voted 31-5 to pass legislation changing the process of including earmarks in the state budget.

Bipartisan, bicameral legislation was introduced, creating the Violent Crime Clearance Act, aimed at solving more crimes in Michigan.

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services received communication from the federal Department of Agriculture that, due to the federal government funding lapse, there may be limited availability of funds to pay full Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits next month.

From his time on the city council to his current role in the State Senate, Senator Michael Webber has dedicated nearly 20 years to serving the people of Michigan.

In our weekly “Five Things We’re Reading” feature, we shared articles on how to eat less microplastics, how a school is using free bikes to combat absenteeism, and more.

A look at events during the week of October 25 – 31, 2025.
