Michigan Proposal #1.

In November 2012, Michigan voters will decide six ballot proposals that will impact the state’s future. Governor Rick Snyder is speaking out on those proposals and their consequences:

PROPOSAL ONE – Michigan’s Emergency Manager Law

Proposal One is all about Michigan’s ability to get control of the financial crisis facing a number of our cities and school districts.

Millions of dollars in debt are piling up in some of our local governments and school districts. Bills that aren’t being paid. City lights that can’t be turned on. Police and fire departments that can’t do their jobs. Children at risk of not having school. All of this can have a disastrous impact.

We have a tool to fix these problems. It’s called the emergency manager law. Public Act 4. This law creates an early warning system to help communities avoid a financial emergency, or if they are in emergency, it empowers an emergency manager with more ability to complete their work so a community can get back on track faster. It helps us keep cities running. It lets us keep kids in school.

If Proposal One is approved, Public Act 4 will remain in effect. Michigan would continue to have its emergency manager law. And we could continue taking positive action to keep our cities and schools moving forward.

  1. So as a Michigander if I read this right Public Act 4 is already there and not working so why revote it in Another dumb idea for Michigan and of course it will probably get voted in again
