Sound Off! - Tell the Michigan Legislature your thoughts!

OK Michigan, step right up, it's time to tell the Legislature YOUR thoughts on the budget crisis! Here is your chance to be heard!


The fine folks at JenniferGranholm.com want you to watch this video...



... and then record your thoughts and post them to YouTube. Go to this page for instructions on how to upload your videos!


If you don't have a video camera, be sure and join The Conversation over on their site. Let's send a message to those lawmakers!


One word of caution- be nice. The legislators ARE watching this stuff, and sometimes they swing back. I should know.


I have yelled so much about this all year that I have been reduced to writing "Bite Me" in crayon and sending it to Lansing. They don't like that. They write "Bite Yourself" and send it back. So, be thoughtful in your message, but be sure and tell them how you feel!


I'm tapped out here- now it's YOUR turn to pitch in! And while you are there, check out the campaign to lower Michigan tuition rates- it's very important to the future of our state that people be able to afford college. JG.com has ideas on how you can help.


What are you waiting for? Grab those cameras and go!
