Michigan’s ‘money out of politics’ group confident in signature validity as it faces new challenge
Michiganders for Money Out of Politics submitted over 562,000 signatures to qualify a November 2026 ballot initiative banning utility companies and government contractors from making campaign contributions. The group faces a challenge from Protect MI Free Speech, which alleges the signatures contain patterns of possible forgery and fraud, referencing a 2022 GOP gubernatorial signature scandal.
