Gov. Jennifer Granholm on Friday turned up the heat on lawmakers to resolve Michigan’s fiscal 2008 budget and replace Michigan’s business tax.
In a speech at the Detroit Regional Chamber’s Mackinac Policy Conference, Granholm urged attendees to insist that “nobody goes on summer vacation until we get this done.”
So what will happen now? Both Senate Majority Leader Mike Bishop, R- Rochester, and House Speaker Andy Dillon, D-Redford Township, said they too have the end of June as a target date for completing work on the budget for the fiscal year that begins Oct. 1.
