Executive Director Abby Mitch of Michigan Rising Action and State Representative Jason Morgan, the Michigan Democratic Party's vice chair, discuss what they believe have been the most underreported stories of 2023 so far. 

State Senator Kevin Hertel, a St. Clair Shores Democrat, explains why he believes the Legislature won't adjourn early this year. As chair of the Senate Health Policy committee, Hertel wants to spend the fall dedicated to legislation transitioning Michigan to a state-based health insurance exchange marketplace. 

Additionally, Midwest advocacy manager Courtney Bourgoin of Evergreen Action describes why environmentalists are excited about a report finding that Michigan could attract nearly $8 billion in extra federal investment if lawmakers approve new carbon-free energy policies.
