Michigan foster kids struggle under system that gives ‘nothing’ after aging out - Bridge Michigan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When Brianna Carsley, who spent most of her life in and out of foster care, graduated from Oxford High School in 2023, she’d already been accepted at Michigan State University and been awarded multiple scholarships. “I threw myself into school because it was all I had,” Carsley told Bridge Michigan. “It’s how I coped.” To help her pay for the full cost of college, she applied for and received additional resources from the state of Michigan, including a scholarship and voucher created to help peo
Fact check: Jocelyn Benson’s family ties to Saline data center - Bridge Michigan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Proposed data centers have sparked controversy in cities and towns across Michigan and emerged as a key issue for campaigns leading up to the November election. That’s true in the Michigan governor’s race, where both major party candidates have responded by proposing temporary moratoriums.

Read excerpt
Affordability and cost of living are some of the biggest issues on the minds of voters in the race for Michigan’s next governor. That includes the rising cost of healthcare. Early in her general election campaign, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, a Democrat, used GOP Rep.
