First Lame Duck Study Huddle

Saturday, January 30, 2021 - 3:00pm to Sunday, January 31, 2021 - 4:45pm

Open to LWVAAA members only.  If interested, you can join LWVAAA HERE.  Meetings will take place on three Saturdays - Jan 30,  Feb 13 and Feb 27.

The Study Huddle will meet (via Zoom) to study background information and reach consensus on nine questions provided by LWVMI. Our report will be combined with reports from local Leagues across Michigan and the final report will be presented at the State Convention in May.

 The scope of the Lame Duck Study includes:

  •  A review of the constitutional authority provided to the lame duck legislative body in Michigan.
  •  The pros and cons of Michigan’s lame duck process
  •  A review of lame duck authority and process in other states
  •  Possible (future) constraints to Michigan’s lame duck session

  If interested sign up HERE to receive study materials and learn more about the process.
