House committee formally seeks subpoena power to investigate separation agreements Dave Boucher, Detroit Free Press
The House Oversight Committee is one step closer to issuing subpoenas as part of a broad investigation into the use of deals that at times used tax dollars to pay high-ranking state officials to leave their jobs and not talk about why they departed.
The 6-2-1 vote to seek subpoena power for the separation agreement inquiry comes after former health department director Robert Gordon and other key members of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer s administration received payouts that included confidentiality agreements.
Two Democrats voted against the resolution, while a third, Rep. David LaGrand, D-Grand Rapids, passed.
