flag Michigan Senate passes bill for 10-day public disclosure of budget earmarks, banning for-profits and tightening nonprofit rules amid corruption concerns.

flag The Michigan Senate passed a bipartisan bill requiring 10-day public disclosure of budget earmark requests, banning for-profits from receiving them and imposing strict rules on nonprofits. flag The measure, backed by transparency goals, passed 31-5 but faces skepticism in the Republican-led House, where leaders demand a 90-day review window and threaten to block Senate bills unless changes are made. flag The debate follows criminal investigations into past earmark misuse, including embezzlement charges tied to a $25 million health park project.
