House approves budget with 63 vote amid protests
The Michigan House passed a compromise budget 63 to 61 after members voiced opposition from both sides. Critics argued the plan preserves inadequate school funding and greens lighted bonds for a new state office building housing the Department of Transportation. Proponents, including Appropriations' Chair Kenny Wilk and Rep Melvin Neufeld, defended the deal as necessary while warning a special session could follow if it failed.
