Gov. Rick Snyder and Republican leaders in the Legislature say they have a deal on taxes. Legislative appropriation panels are working their way through budget bills. The wheels are turning in the State Capitol, but is Michigan government on the road you prefer?



The Center for Michigan and partners MiVote.org and Detroit Public Television continue a spring series of townhalls — “Common Sense Conversations” — on Michigan’s tax and budget choices with late April stops in Wixom, Grand Rapids and Lansing.



Our “clicker” technology allows participants to vote on priorities for the state’s future and instantly compare their personal preferences to the group as a whole. Open discussion gives everybody a chance to have their say and “Talk Back to Lansing.” Information collected at these sessions is used by the Center to inform Lansing leaders on what voters are thinking. Be part of the conversation.



REGISTER TODAY for the Common Sense Conversation in Wixom on Wednesday, April 20.



Register for Grand Rapids on Monday, April 25.



Register for Lansing on Wednesday, April 27.
