| Again, why are Republicans afraid of voters? If Gov. Rick Snyder expects Michiganders to believe his professed interest in “worker choice” is anything more than the most cynical doublespeak, he’ll embrace a reasonable compromise Michigan’s Democratic congressional delegation proposed at a meeting in the governor’s Cadillac Place office Monday morning. Those present at the meeting urged that instead of signing the right-to-work bill state legislators are expected to whisk to his desk Tuesday, Snyder should encourage the bill’s champions to place the question before voters in the next statewide election, currently scheduled for August 2014.
He can line item veto the appropriation out of there and put the matter into the hands of Michigan's voters. By now, most of you have seen where Congressional Democrats have warned the governor that Washington might look dimly on state Republican ramming Right to Work through in lame duck with no public comment. It's also fraying the edges of the political fabric down in Lansing. |
