Michiganders for Money Out Of Politics faces final hurdles: Lawsuit, Legislature

The Michiganders for Money Out Of Politics ballot proposal seeks to amend Michigan's campaign finance law by prohibiting political contributions from regulated gas and electric utilities. The initiative faces multiple hurdles, including a lawsuit filed by Protect MI Free Speech and legislative action required by September 5th to prevent automatic placement on the ballot. If approved, the proposal would also block donations from individuals associated with monopoly utilities.
