Around 2.2 million Michigan women don’t have birth certificates that match their legal names. House Republicans are pushing a constitutional amendment that would put us on a one-way path towards requiring them to pay for copies of marriage certificates, divorce records or even passports to vote. Requiring this is nothing short of a poll tax.
I voted against this dangerous constitutional amendment in committee and was proud to join my Democratic colleagues condemning this dangerous proposal.

LIVE: Let women vote! House Joint Resolution B would create unnecessary barriers to the ballot box — House Dems are fighting to keep our elections free, fair and accessible.

🚨‼️Every single one of the Michigan House Republicans just voted to shut down our state government and defund our public schools.
They voted to cut 92% of the state budget and $5 billion from public schools. Every. Single. One.

What does this mean for our kids? What does it mean for the free lunch program? Do the cuts go into effect? Asap or fall?
