Bridge Michigan invites readers to free Zoom discussion from noon to 1 p.m. on Nov. 3 about Michigan Democrats’ first year as a legislative majority in both the state Senate and House of Representatives in more than 40 years.
Elected leaders from both parties will discuss the term, and whether Democrats have delivered on their campaign promises.
Panelists will include Rep. Abraham Aiyash, D-Hamtramck, Senate Appropriations Chair Sen. Sarah Anthony, D-Lansing, Rep. Andrew Beeler, R-Port Huron and Sen. Mike Webber, R-Rochester Hills. Bridge Michigan Capitol Reporter Lauren Gibbons will moderate the discussion.
