Michigan House adjourns May 20 amid redistricting buzz
Lansing dispatch reports the Michigan House adopted a resolution setting May 20 as the last day for regular business of the session, with adjournment planned for May 21. The Senate did not act. A proposed redistricting plan would move parts of Detroit and Hillsdale to the Second District and Jackson County to the Third, aiming to bolster a Republican candidate, while drawing GOP opposition in the Third. The State Affairs Committee was named to investigate medical boodling charges.
