Secretary Benson statement on Michigan House adjournment
Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson today made the following statement after the House adjourned without voting on several bills on their agenda:
"Like most of our state, I’m deeply disappointed that the House adjourned today with so much unfinished business for Michigan’s residents.
"We’ve fought very hard to make this state a national leader in protecting and strengthening the fundamental right of every citizen to cast a ballot through the Michigan Voting Rights Act. Along with the MVRA, we need to pass important bills to make state government more transparent and accountable, root out fraud in the petition gathering process, prevent misinformation about elections, and to make our redistricting process even more fair.
"We know the people of Michigan want these protections and reforms. I’m still deeply committed to leading on these issues and won’t give up the fight until it’s done."
