Of the 13 known places in Michigan where election clerks were allegedly intimidated into providing access to voting equipment after the 2020 electionātwo were in my senate district.
As a result, Governor Whitmer signed my legislation with Rep. Kara Hope today, which makes it a crime to intimidate an election official with the intent to interfere with their election-related duties. ... See MoreSee Less

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer also signed legislation aimed at curbing the use of campaign advertising manipulated by artificial intelligence.1 CommentComment on Facebook
Thank you, Senator Polehanki! Since Livonia was one of those places, I'm glad City Clerk Susan Nash stood strong against them trying to take our voting machines, but she shouldn't have had to go through that. This law will make being an election official safer.

Job well done
Yes Senator Dayna
Thank you for fighting for Inkster School families, Senator Polehanki. The fiscal problems of the Inkster School District was not of their making. It was created by policies in Lansing. I'm glad the current leadership in Lansing are working to fix the problems created by previous administrations.

Thank you for not bowing under to Big Oil and working to given Michigan a healthier and more sustainable future. Wind and Solar are the future. We may not have as many bright, sunny days as say Arizona, but thanks to our lakes, Michigan certainly has wind!
Thanks Dayna. Consider two points going forward: 1) DTE and our state is better served building solar farms employing Agrivoltaics/Agriphotovoltaics design (dual-use agricultural land and not strictly solar in nature) and 2) we can't promote EV transportation without ease of EV charging infrastructure and eliminating EV Range Anxiety.
The World Economic Forum is who Whitmer is serving, not Michiganders. Here is your future. Eating fake meat š bugs š , living in 15 minute cities (prison camps), paying carbon tax, owning nothing, driving electric vehicles only if you are filthy rich but no fossil fuels. Good luck heating your homes in the winter with wind and solar!! www.weforum.org/
You folks need to learn from Europe. You need plenty of base capacity if wind and solar are the plan. Michigan in no way has enough wind and solar to power the state. All you folks did was put the entire grid in rolling blackout mode with this green energy crap. Not sure who is paying you folks off for this green energy push but you folks really need to pull your heads out of your butts.
How many new trains does it provide? Will it provide passenger rail service between Grand Rapids and Detroit?
We seen this fail the last time your party pass such garbage to give their campaign donors government funds to create companies than go put of business also failed to create jobs. Like the wind mill plant in Wixom in the old Ford plant that's now a shopping mall. Just wanted yo remind you I clearly wasn't bullied away to bad your such hate filled person. Clearly i do support how joe Biden says people like you are the problem along with your race
