On Wednesday, January 25th, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer delivered her fifth State of the State Address. It was held in the Michigan House of Representatives in front of a joint session of the Michigan House of Representatives and the Michigan Senate.
The address was broadcast live with Whitmer discussing her plans to tackle the challenges currently faced by Michiganders.
One of the issues addressed was the cost of living in Michigan. We have all noticed the rise in cost of everyday items, and have been affected by it to some degree. Gov. Whitmer says, “I am excited to announce “Lowering MI Costs, ” a plan offering immediate relief.
The three steps include rolling back retirement tax, expanding the Working Families Tax Credit, and third, Pre-K for All, which would save families an average of $10,000 per year and ensure that every four year old gets a great start.
