Here's the Left of Lansing "Friday Short" for May 23, 2025.

It's another edition of, "Michigan Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin Goes Full MAGA!"

This week, Slotkin was the ONLY Democrat in the U.S. Senate to vote in favor of ripping-away California's tailpipe emissions standards for cars and trucks--a standard that 17 other states adopted.

Slotkin claims to be protecting the interests of Michigan since we're the auto capital of the world. Yet, with climate change hurting her state in a number of ways, wouldn't moving away from the fossil fuels of the 20th Century ensure our economic & environmental survival in the 21st Century?

Yet, Slotkin joined MAGA Republicans in gutting this EPA waiver to California that was issued during the Biden Administration.

Who's side is Slotkin on? It's not working class Michiganders.
