State Rep. Luke Meerman voted against legislation passed by House Democrats today to divert resources that were intended to pay down teacher retirement debt, a move that could jeopardize Michigan’s state finances.
House Bill 5803 would reduce contributions to the health care system for retired school employees, instead of allowing health care savings to go toward paying down pension debt. The overall retirement system still owes more than $30 billion in unfunded liabilities.

House Bills 5571-76 make extensive changes to the petition process used for certain elections in Michigan, including nomination petitions, ballot proposals, constitutional, and initiative petitions.

“Give the democrats a gavel and they will pull out every stop to cater to their union friends and stakeholders,” Meerman said. “From union symbols and links to websites on petitions, it’s a bold way of informing the people who writes their laws and the Legislature should not further relinquish its lawmaking authority.”
