Michigan and Chrysler have about 2 weeks to get JP Morgan Chase to renegotiate Chrysler's debt--or 300,000 people will lose their jobs. To pressure JP Morgan to negotiate, FDL and Progress Michigan are calling on people to boycott Chase.
Warren Evans, Wayne county Sheriff and Detroit Mayoral candidate, announced this week that he is “ending enforcement of all foreclosure sales in Wayne County." Evans' bold move is already winning him the right enemies. Today’s Detroit Free Press, in a critique of Detroit’s top Mayoral candidates, gives him good references for his term as Wayne County Sheriff but wastes no words to let him know his newest policy is out of political bounds
And his declaration last week that he would stop enforcing sales of foreclosed homes was a political stunt with no basis in law. He shouldn't have done it. And he shouldn't be so disposed to political gamesmanship as a way to raise his campaign's profile.
