Whitmer Tries to Bribe Taxpayers With Their Own Money
“You can always count on Governor Whitmer to do whatever it takes to advance her own political standing and today’s proposed ‘rebates’ are an election year stunt after she vetoed tax cuts on gas and relief for families and seniors.”
ICYMI: “Educational Freedom is Popular with Parents this Election”
“Michigan parents are mad, and after more than two years of senseless, destructive education policies from unelected bureaucrats and Democrat politicians alike, they’re taking matters into their own hands.”
New Auditor General Report: Whitmer Admin Left Seniors Without Oversight, Failed To Visit Nursing Homes
“Most states fought to keep the virus out of nursing homes, but Governor Whitmer deliberately ordered COVID patients into homes full of seniors, failed to provide legally required oversight, refused to accurately track how many seniors died from her policy, and even bought the silence of the Health Department director responsible for implementing her orders,” said Michigan Freedom Fund executive director Tori Sachs. “Whitmer banned family members – the most vocal patient advocates – from these facilities, and her ombudsman, the last line of defense for patients, decided to not do their legally required job. The families who lost loved ones to this deadly, unscientific policy deserve answers, and the Whitmer administration must be held accountable for this brazen act of negligence.”
Whitmer Vetoed Bipartisan Election Integrity Bill, Then Issued Directive To State Agencies To Increase Vote-By-Mail Applications
“It’s disgraceful that months before voters will decide if Whitmer gets to keep her job she is directing state agencies to use taxpayer-funded resources to register voters by distributing vote by mail applications,” said Tori Sachs, executive director of The Michigan Freedom Fund. “Just days ago, Whitmer vetoed a bipartisan bill that would have added a statement to voter registration applications stating it’s a felony to vote more than once. Instead of using government resources to aide her re-election campaign, Governor Whitmer should be making it easier to vote and harder to cheat.”
Nearly 100,000 Michigan Kids Still Forced To Mask At School
“It’s absolutely ridiculous that nearly 100,000 Michigan students are still forced to wear a mask at school when the mask mandates have been dropped everywhere else,” said Tori Sachs, executive director of the Michigan Freedom Fund. “Michigan students are suffering academically and emotionally, and Governor Whitmer still refuses to stand up for our kids. It’s time to put parents back in charge by ending the harmful forced masking of students.”
New Ad Slams Whitmer’s Assertion That Michigan is “On the Right Track” As Inflation Soars
“Michigan families faced with rising gas prices and grocery bills are struggling to make ends meet, and Governor Whitmer’s policies are making things worse,” said Tori Sachs, executive director of the Michigan Freedom Fund. “Governor Whitmer can pretend this is the ‘best recovery’ in state history, but it was her own lockdowns and mandates that crushed Michigan’s economy in the first place. While Whitmer tries to put a positive spin on Michigan’s economic woes, workers, business owners and families across the state are seeing the very real consequences of her disastrous policies every time they go to the grocery store, gas station, or pay their bills.”
