Michigan Republicans walk out, protesting Dems' refusal to vote on road funding, wages, and sick leave.

Michigan House Republicans have walked out in protest, demanding votes on bills related to road funding, minimum wage for tipped workers, and paid sick leave. They accuse Democrats of refusing to negotiate these issues, focusing instead on other legislation. Democrats, who will lose control of the House after the first of the year, continue to push their agenda and urge Republicans to return to voting. The standoff leaves key bills unresolved with only a few days left in the legislative session.
