Truly disappointed in the shaming of demonstrators for blocking roads to make points re: violations to human rights. It is called disruption and it is used when people of privilege won't pay attention to suffering unless their life is inconvenienced. See civil rights movement. 🧵

Michigan deserves transparency and accountability in campaign finance. Voters passed Prop 1 to achieve ethics in Gov't in MI. I voted no on weak versions of MI's transparency bills. The bills passed the House regardless. I remain committed to greater transparency in MI. #mileg

We are voting on Prop 1 transparency bills. I'm on the ethics committee and we did not hold testimony on these bills. These bills are full of loopholes. They are weak and make a mockery of Proposition 1. I am voting no. People deserve better.
