The #MichiganSupremeCourt ruled 4-3 the state #Legislature lacked the authority to
#AdoptandAmend petition language for a pair of #BallotInitiatives in 2018. Justices said the tactic is unconstitutional because the Legislature circumvented the petition initiative process in 2018. Increases to #Michigan's standard minimum wage, tipped #MinimumWage & an expansion of the state's earned sick time laws are slated to take effect in February.
