Reader Says Vote No on Proposal 02 4 in November
Kathy Tarr urges Michigan voters to reject Proposal 02 4 claiming it shifts 300 million dollars yearly from elected policymakers to unaccountable groups including a Tobacco Free Futures Fund that would receive 50 million annually. She argues the measure lacks oversight and could erode health programs and merit scholarships while diverting funds from hospitals and other care, calling the plan unnecessary.
