Watch as Gov Gretchen Whitmer delivers her last #MISOTS26 ...

A graphic for Michigan State Representative Jason Hoskins. Below a photo of Rep. Hoskins, his quote reads, “Rising costs continue to place real strain on families. Our responsibility is to lead with purpose and results."
Tonight, Gov. Whitmer’s #MISOTS26 reflected on the progress MI has made, & the responsibility we share to govern with purpose. It also highlighted the need to lower costs & respond to the real pressures families are feeling every day. That work continues, with people, not politics, at the center.
