We saw this past week the fantastic work of our law enforcement community in their swift action to upend a plan to harm Governor Whitmer. There is never a place in society for violence. We are grateful that those planning the attack will be brought to justice and that the Governor and her family are unharmed.
We are also happy that the Michigan Supreme Court recently ruled in favor of our constitution, the rule of law and the role of the legislature in making laws for our state.
However, their decision tossing out Governor Whitmer’s executive orders – dating all the way back to April – have also left parents and school districts with a fair amount of confusion.
Do athletes still have to wear masks on the playing field? Are virtual days’ days numbered? What about other restrictions on in-school activities?
School districts are scrambling to better understand the new reality on the ground.
Parents across Michigan? They’re telling them “welcome to the club.”
That’s why we’ve empowered parents with a new website – MISafeSchoolOptions.org – built to give parents a voice directly in Governor Whitmer’s office.
If brand new polling tells us anything, it’s that Michigan parents want options. They want schools that put their kids first.
You have a voice. Working together we’ll make sure Lansing hears it!
