if we want to talk about youth vs experience, by the time I was 33, I had already been in charge of a combined $2.1 billion set of budgets for all postsecondary education in Michigan, and then the deputy executive of the public university coordinating board in Michigan

I live in the capital of MI with two GM plants in town. My dad was a car guy his whole life. I do not get the obsession with luxotrucks, even after riding in them
Our 2013 Chevy Volt ($12K) and 2012 Prius ($14K) are doing just fine for all the hauling we do across the state, thank you

I like green bean casserole, and I like it enough that I once made it to take it to a potluck for my local parents listserv. I overheard someone snicker, “what is this, thanksgiving?”

The Michigan members joining Rep Zephyr are an interesting cross-section of mostly the more left and the more right, with a few more centrist Dems. More interestingly, I can't imagine many other open letters that would be signed by most of the LGBTQ Caucus AND Rep Schriver, the Great Replacement guy
I'm proud to join 280 state lawmakers in urging congress not to pass any AI preemption laws.
As AI content become easier to create & spread, states will play an important role in curtailing the dangers. And we neither need nor want the federal government getting in the way of novel policy solutions

In his first 2 years Biden got Congress to pass:
$1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan
$1 trillion infrastructure bill
The Inflation Reduction Act, which included a $370 billion climate initiative
The CHIPS Act
The largest gun control act in 30 years
Voters rewarded him by electing a GOP Congress.

It was a do-nothing president. Biden gave up on the whole slate of reforms that could have built a solid presidency and focused on things that didn't address Americans' problems, didn't improve their lives and were largely things no one wanted and about which no one cared.

My perennial reminder that you can have constitutionally autonomous public universities, or you can let state politics dictate what's taught.
Every new program at the MI public U's comes to my desk, I review the proposal for completeness, and then send it to the campuses for quarterly peer review.
