Description

Description

House Republicans cut $645 million in approved funding for dozens of state government work projects in Michigan, including projects for wigs for children with cancer, climate change programs, and a semiconductor material plant in Hemlock. The cuts affected unspent money from the 2025 budget that the Whitmer administration wanted to roll over into 2026 as work projects. The House Appropriations Committee used a rare maneuver to reject these work project requests, causing anger and confusion among Democrats and impacted organizations.
