Advocates hope banning many utility donations will help clean energy legislation in Michigan Renewable-energy advocates say utilities have too much influence over the officials that regulate them, and that a proposed ballot measure could help change that.

"In 2022, Michigan’s largest utility, DTE, donated to 138 of Michigan’s 148 legislators...

...these donations give politicians an incentive to kill legislation utilities don’t like, including some that would help renewables take off in Michigan."

www.wmuk.org/wmuk-news/20...

Ballot Initiative to get Money out of Politics Advances - Michigan United Action By a 4 to 0 vote, the legislature approved the petition to restrict certain corporate donations in state politics to prevent conflicts of interest in politics.

It's time to clean up Lansing!
