Two generations ago, Michigan was a “Top Ten” state for economic growth. For the past generation, we have lagged the nation. We are becoming economically poorer, smaller and less competitive. In order to stop this trend, we must adopt a “turnaround plan”. You can help by writing your elected official today!
Following are sample letters you can send your representative around issues important to our state right now:
Bring State Corrections Spending Under Control.
Urge legislators to pass a budget that reduces Michigan’s annual per prisoner incarceration cost to the average for surrounding states, currently $25,000.
