GOVERNOR WHITMER S 2021 STATE OF THE STATE ADDRESS
Good evening.
Last year, I gave my second State of the State address in the House Chamber here in the capitol.
Like much of the last year, this State of the State is different, because it has to be. Tonight, it’s just me and a few people in my Capitol office.
And while it’s different, it s an opportunity to speak directly to you the people of Michigan about the past year, and our priorities in 2021.
At the risk of losing you in the first minutes of this speech, I’m going to use a Latin phrase: Annus horribilis: a year of horribles. Before I tell you more, take comfort in knowing that tough years like 2020, our annus horribilis, are usually followed by great years – and yes, there’s Latin a phrase for that too: annus mirabilis.

Listen to the full interview.
Michigan State Representative Felicia Brabec said she was happy to hear the governor say bipartisian action is what is going to help us move forward in the state. She said it will help put an end to the pandemic, get people vaccinated, and get students and teachers back to school safely.
Representative Brabec said she was also pleased the governor addressed improving state roads and preserving our water infrastructure.
She also agreed with the governor s assessment that the state of the state is that Michigan is resilient.
