Friends of LittleSis,
Over the last year, we’ve been working on a secret project with our friends at [Design Action Collective]([link removed]) to bring all that you know and love about the work we do here at LittleSis together in one place!
We’re thrilled to reveal our new logo and new website at a familiar address – littlesis.org!
Now, for the first time, you can access all that LittleSis has to offer – original research, movement technology, and training and popular education – with one easy-to-navigate site.
Take a look around and see if you catch something you didn’t know LittleSis offered!

Moreover, key findings in this report reveal Michigan legislators have failed to implement the necessary policy interventions to hold the utilities accountable because the IOUs have spent millions of dollars on lobbying efforts, direct donations, and dark money to influence our state government, regardless of party.
