A Republican-controlled Michigan House budget committee used a rarely invoked provision of state law last week to cancel nearly $645 million in previously approved but unspent state project funding, sending much of the money back to the general fund. The move, which affected programs backed by Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer, has drawn sharp criticism from Democrats, who called the cuts cruel, while Republicans defended them as necessary oversight and fiscal restraint.
Despite a significantly reduced budget, the Office of the Vice President provided assistance to over 73,000 families affected by major disasters, according to its year-end report. Initiatives included rice distribution and planting one million trees. Vice President Sara Duterte reaffirmed the office's commitment against corruption.
