Flint - State Senate Minority Leader Jim Ananich (click here) has introduced legislation to repeal Michigan’s emergency manager law and a separate bill designed to identify local governments that are experiencing financial stress sooner so they can avoid state takeovers.
Ananich, D-Flint, said it should be obvious that the current law requires replacement and isn’t currently being used anywhere in the state....
The voters of Michigan passed a measure to end the emergency manager law in 2016 (click here) that was ignored and reworded by the Snyder Legislature. Can Michigan Senator Ananich pass the bill and make it stick? It is definitely an election year agenda item.
