Michigan families and workers deserve paid sick leave and a minimum wage increase to at least $12/hr. Denying workers the right to earn paid sick time contributed to the public health disaster we experienced during the pandemic. Over 4 million new people entered into poverty over the last year and over 95% of all U.S. counties can’t afford a one-bedroom rental on minimum wage. The blatant voter suppression being experienced in Georgia is nothing new to Michigan.
In 2018 Michigan Republicans engaged in unconstitutional behavior according to Article 2, section 9 of the Michigan constitution, expressly to prevent Michigan voters from being able to have our say. Attorney General Dana Nessel can right this wrong with a stroke of her pen. Please stand with Michigan workers and add your voice to this call for justice!
