MIRS Monday, July 1, 2024
Manage episode 426618170 series 2362846
To discuss an $83 billion total budget that legislators approved after 4 a.m. last week, MIRS was joined by President Monique Stanton of the Michigan League for Public Policy and Michael LaFaive, the head of fiscal policy for the Mackinac Center for Public Policy.
One voice supports financial help for needy Michiganders, another calls for limited government. Together, they share their different "Winners and Losers" of the budget (1:13).
Also, the budget gives direct care workers serving disabled residents a 20-cents-per-hour raise. But direct care worker service providers fear this won't be enough to alleviate staff shortages (24:10).
Additionally, MIRS was joined by Political Director Max Docksey of the Republican State Leadership Committee, to talk about why his national group has launched an absentee and early voting program in Michigan (42:27).
