2023 Key Legislative Highlights:

2. Coalition Building: We collaborated with the Great Lakes Growth Coalition and other business groups to amplify our voice on critical issues, hosting press conferences, testifying in committees and making our stance known in the media.
3. Advocacy and Resilience: Our unwavering advocacy has positioned us as a formidable force, ensuring that the voice of Michigan’s manufacturing sector is heard and respected.

Thank you for being an integral part of the MMA-PAC community. We look forward to your continued support and working hand in hand to shape the future of Michigan’s manufacturing landscape.
