Slagh Blasts Whitmer Over Vetoes Funding Hostage Claim
Michigan State Rep. Bradley Slagh labels Gov. Gretchen Whitmer line item vetoes as holding critical funding hostage in a dispute over nearly 1 billion dollars. He accuses the governor of using law enforcement and education sectors to push a 45 cent gas tax plan intended to fund infrastructure while Republicans call the budget irresponsible. Whitmer defends vetoes as unsustainable, seeking negotiations on a supplemental bill as she maintains funding protections in mental health, corrections, tourism, and private universities.
