    CF, better grow bigger ones if you think there’s voting out of this one. Senate and, House Majority has done what?

    Apply yourself where it matters. It’s not electing those who spend their time once in office on getting re-elected to exhaustion to jump chambers riding out limits.

    They all do that. Every year unanimously voted Speaker of the House?

    Think.

      Republican elected officials are often disappointing, but I'd still rather have them than dems. You can't expect a lot of positive achievements in divided government, but in the last two years, the GOP legislature has done the following.
      - Passed a ban on civil asset forfeiture (signed by the governor)
      - Passed a pretty good auto insurance reform and got the governor to sign it
      - Blocked any of Whitmer's legislative agenda from passing
      - Defeated her gas tax plan so completely that no dem even dared to introduce it in the legislature
      - Blocked the confirmation of anti-gun George Heartwell to the Natural Resources Commission
      They also opposed the lockdown power-grab (mostly unsuccessfully so far). But if the "Unlock Michigan" campaign can get enough signatures, they will be able to repeal the statute Whitmer is using for her executive orders. Note that using the "people's override" requires having both houses of the legislature.
      What endeavors would be better use of our resources than electoral politics?
