“Every dollar spent by state government came from someone’s pocket – whether that be a small-business owner in Petoskey, a working mom in Sault Ste. Marie, or some other hard-working taxpayer who calls Michigan home,” said Fairbairn, R-Harbor Springs. “This bipartisan action pulls the curtains down on the outrageous spending culture in Lansing. Starting today, every dollar of ‘special project’ funding requested by a legislator, must be justified to lawmakers and the public alike. We’re putting a stop to the unregulated, undisclosed spending that has become far too prevalent in recent years.”
