Another unfortunate waste of time by the Michigan lawmakers. Does this solve a problem? Are there "employees" that spend their time at work "politicking" with government resources day after day? We know there are elected office holders that steal millions of dollars of government...

PA 54 of 2011 is a short-sighted republican joke. It prohibits any merit increases (pay raises based on time served) when negotiated labor contracts have expired.

I am a School Bus Driver. It's a wonderful job. We have a familiar relationship with students and their parents. This bill would take that away. We don;t make that much money.

Since when and why does the State Government thnk they can pre-empt the Federal Protections mandated by Federal Law? This just dosen't make any sense to me. I agree, State Government needs to butt out of the Federal Protections in place to protect those with these diseases. A classic example is the...
