The Michigan Chamber released the following statement as proposed ballot language from “Michiganders for Money Out of Politics (MMOP)” was posted:
“This egregious proposal appears to silence the voices of job providers and limit free speech for some while giving others, like labor unions, a free pass. That’s not just bad policy – it’s fundamentally unfair and harmful to Michigan’s future.
“Efforts to restrict free speech have repeatedly been deemed unacceptable – and this is no different. Michiganders deserves fair, open debate on issues that impact every community, every business and every worker in our state, not selective censorship that shuts out the voices of those who create jobs, drive economic growth and invest in our communities.
“The Michigan Chamber strongly opposes efforts that rig the rules to determine who can participate in the policy and political process and who can’t. As this proposal proceeds, the Chamber will continue to stand up for a level playing field and defend the rights of all Michiganders to be heard.”
