For the third time this year, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has met with President Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, she met with Trump at the White House, lobbying him to delay implementation of a Medicaid change in his signature tax and spending law that could cost the state hundreds of millions of dollars, among other things, Bridge Detroit reports.
“I told him and his team about the impact tariffs are having on Michigan’s economy, especially our auto industry, the harm Michigan will face due to changes in the Medicaid program, and ongoing recovery efforts following the ice storm in Northern Michigan this year,” Whitmer said in a statement.
