Michigan's GOP-Majority Legislature Sues Gov. Gretchen Whitmer

Governor Whitmer extended Michigan's state of emergency for COVID-19 until May 28th, despite not being approved to do so. This action led to political backlash, with Republicans filing a lawsuit claiming she overstepped her authority. The lawsuit, expected to reach the Michigan Supreme Court, argues that Whitmer's unilateral decision could lead to indefinite extensions of her power. Meanwhile, the state's stay-at-home order remains in effect until May 15th.
