Legislator to join appropriations, chair Michigan State Police subcommittee

State Rep. Mike Mueller this week was appointed by House Speaker Matt Hall to serve on the House Appropriations Committee and chair the Michigan State Police subcommittee.

Mueller, a retired sheriff’s deputy with years of firsthand experience in law enforcement, brings a deep understanding of public safety needs to the Legislature’s budgeting process.

“I know the challenges our law enforcement officers face every day to keep our families safe,” Mueller said. “I am honored to take on this role and will work to ensure our state budget prioritizes public safety and meets the needs of both our officers and the communities they serve.”

Mueller also will serve as vice chair of the subcommittee responsible for the budgets of the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, and as a member of the budget subcommittees focused on human services, higher education, and community colleges.
