Moreover, 61 percent of voters said they would be more likely to support a candidate if they support this proposal.<\/p>\n
\u201cMichiganders are sick and tired of the power that wealthy corporations wield in our elections,\u201d said Justin Mendoza, executive director of Progress Michigan. \u201cParticularly, monopoly utilities in our state have the ability to raise prices year over year while donating near-endless amounts of cash to our lawmakers who have the power to rein them in. And what do us Michiganders get in return? The answer is higher bills year after year. With high and rising costs for just about everything, Michiganders are looking for leaders to stand up to corporate greed. Candidates on both sides of the aisle should take note of these results.\u201d<\/p>\n
