Michigan Democrats Abuse Proxy Voting, Lied About Reason
21 May 2021
Member of Michigan’s Democrat Congressional delegation abused their proxy voting ability in the House of Representatives to be with the president after claiming an “ongoing health emergency,” according to a report.
Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI), Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), and Dan Kildee (D-MI) each claimed they were unable to cast their votes in person claiming the “ongoing public health emergency,” in a letter they filed with the House clerk Monday, May 17.
However, the following day, Tuesday, May 18, the group of lawmakers attended the Ford Motors facility in Michigan when President Joe Biden was there for an in-person tour, according to Fox News.
