Bishop A No-Show
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that Michigan Senate Majority Leader Mike Bishop (R-12, Rochester Hills) failed to attend a scheduled meeting with Governor Jennifer M. Granholm (D, MI) and Speaker of the House Andy Dillion (D-17, Redford Township); a meeting that had been scheduled last week to resolve Michigan's budget crisis. I would love to say that I'm suprised by this, but I'm not.
In my opinion, it is time for Ms. Granholm to invoke her authority under Article IV, Section 28 of Michigan's Constitution and compel the Legislature to produce a plan to solve Michigan's budget problems.
