A coalition of Michigan House and Senate legislators introduced a plan today to guarantee pay equity for all residents of the state, on Wednesday, May 22, 2019. According to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, without any policy interventions to ensure equal status for women, the disparity in wages between men and women will not end in Michigan until the year 2059. House Bills 4629-40 and Senate Bills 328-39 were introduced to close that significant pay gap.
State Reps. Kristy Pagan (D-Canton), Matt Koleszar (D-Plymouth), Lori Stone (D-Warren), Brenda Carter (D-Pontiac) and Sheryl Kennedy (D-Davison) submitted a bill to repeal the mandatory retention part of Michigan’s third-grade reading law, on Wednesday, May 8, 2019. Only 44 percent of Michigan third-graders passed the M-Step reading test administered in April 2018. Under current law, the 2019-20 school year marks the first year that third graders will be retained. Without this change, we are setting up hundreds of Michigan children for failure. Research clearly shows that retaining a student is not an effective strategy to improve student achievement. In fact, data from the National Center for Education Statistics shows that retention does not reliably boost student achievement, and that retained students are much more likely to drop out of school than students who have not been retained.
