Put FOIA on ballot

Feb 25

I loved David Hohendorf’s column in the February isaue.

We desperately need FOIA in Michigan state government and we need to get the dark money our of politics.

Two daunting tasks.

It looks like putting it on the ballot is the only way to get this done (I did not know this was even an option).

All politicians say yes we need transparency but they never act on it.

I am ready to sign the petition to get this on the ballot and I hope some group takes the initiative.
