Today Michigan voters will choose the state’s next governor and decide whether to approve three statewide proposals, but there also are local elections that will have a more direct impact
I have been speaking about this issue for quite a long time. In fact, the first piece I wrote about it was back in July of 2020. Last August I wrote:
“When Whitmer accuses people of using “unscrupulous measures” when attempting to repeal the Emergency Powers Act that she believes gives her dictatorial control over the entire state, that tells me she is concerned, perhaps very concerned.
The group collecting the signatures to repeal Michigan s Emergency Powers of Governor Act, 1945 is called Unlock Michigan. The group needs to collect more than 340,000 valid signatures to submit the petition to the Legislature.”
A year later with thirteen pieces written and a number of interviews with Unlock Michigan’s spokesperson Fred Wzolek, their initiative has been passed by the Senate last week and the House today and the petition is officially passed.
