HOUGHTON The Copper Country’s state legislators met with the Houghton County Board Friday morning to discuss COVID-19 restrictions and other issues in the county at a special meeting Friday.
The meeting was the idea of State Sen. Ed McBroom, R-Vulcan, who answered questions from the board along with Rep. Greg Markkanen, R-Hancock. McBroom had intended to meet with counties after taking office in 2019, he said, but had been delayed first by legislative work surrounding mental health, then by COVID-19.

The school will put this into its online curriculum for all pupils for P7 to S6.
