Governor Gretchen Whitmer stressed her gratitude to essential employees during her State of the State address this week highlighting the Futures for Frontliners program in which food and ag workers can enroll for tuition-free community college education.
“They stayed at work so the rest of us could stay home and they earned our full support,” she says. “More than 82,000 frontline heroes have been accepted into the program.”
She called for Michiganders to be resilient in 2021 and support from the legislature for her Back to Work plan as well as local road funding, clean water, and additional plans for COVID recovery.
