Proposal One: Why Michigan Needs Its Emergency Manager Law

At a town hall in Detroit on Thursday, Governor Rick Snyder explained how Michigan's emergency manager law benefits our cities and schools -- and how it helped make sure that kids in Highland Park could attend school this year.



In this first video, Governor Snyder introduces Roy Roberts, the emergency manager for Detroit Public Schools. Thanks to Roberts' efforts, Detroit's schools are finally pulling themselves out of debt and improving education for students in the city.



In this second video, Governor Snyder explains the dire straits in Highland Park schools, how students there were in danger of not having a school to attend this year, and how the Michigan's emergency manager law was able to turn that school district around.

If you support Michigan's emergency manager, vote YES on Proposal One.
