Whitmer Unveils $80.7 Billion Budget Proposal: Education, Economic Growth, and Lower Costs Take Center Stage
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer unveiled her proposed budget for the 2025 fiscal year on Wednesday, outlining a $80.7 billion spending plan centered around three key priorities: education, economic growth, and lowering costs for Michigan families.
The governor commented on the new budget in a press release.
“My balanced, fiscally responsible budget recommendation for fiscal year 2025 builds on the historic investments we’ve made since I took office and delivers on the issues that make a real difference in people’s lives,” said Governor Whitmer.
“Together, let’s lower costs for working families, deliver the Michigan Guarantee to offer every Michigan child a free public education from pre-K through community college, save family caregivers thousands on their taxes, and power our economic and workforce development to build and lead the future. Let’s get it done so everyone can ‘make it’ in Michigan.”
