Michigan Legislature Eyes Higher Pay and Open Sessions
Michigan lawmakers push to raise legislative salaries to 15000ly and keep the session open into fall to handle unsettled issues such as fiscal reform while also approving a new workmen compensation plan that boosts benefits. Sen Sander Levin leads the reform push, and observers note Michigan now has extended annual sessions with a history of longer, ongoing duty beyond a typical biennial schedule. Stories also profile Howard E Hill, 58, who leads the state highway department as acting director after a career in the Army Corps of Engineers and private sector roles.
