Dear Friend,??

This year, we?ve made a lot of progress together. From protecting personal freedoms to growing our economy, we?re building a bright future for Michigan. So, let?s tell the world! ?

Last week, I was proud to launch a new, national marketing campaign to share Michigan?s story and promote our state as the best place to live, work, and invest.??

The ?You Can in Michigan? campaign will attract talent, grow our population and economy, and show the world what we have to offer. From a great quality of life to a comfortable cost of living, and strong economic opportunities, there?s something in Michigan for everyone. ?

?

In addition to a variety of media initiatives to sell Michigan, the campaign includes a new website, themichiganlife.org, for job seekers to explore the state, calculate their cost of living, and define and reach their career goals with the support of the Michigan Career Portal.???

This campaign will help us tell our story and the advance the goals of the Growing Michigan Together Council, which I established in June to grow our population and set Michigan up for success for decades to come.???

At the end of my What?s Next Address earlier this fall, I shared how we need to go from just believing in Michigan to bragging about Michigan.? After all, what?s not to love?? We have it all: opportunities for a rewarding career, economic opportunity, fundamental freedoms ? all with proximity to 3,000 miles of freshwater coastline.?

I will take every opportunity I can to brag about Michigan and I hope you will too! Let?s continue working hard to help more individuals, families, and business owners make it in Michigan.

Sincerely,
