The success of Michigan’s future hinges on the quality of its K-12 and postsecondary education systems. To ensure that graduates are ready for the current and future workforce demands, it is imperative to reimagine these education systems. This means creating environments that provide students and teachers with the resources they need to learn and work effectively.
Recently, the Detroit Regional Chamber, in collaboration with Business Leaders for Michigan and the Small Business Association of Michigan, sent a letter to House Appropriations Chair Angela Witwer and Senate Appropriations Chair Sarah Anthony. The letter expressed support for Launch Michigan’s two budget requests for the fiscal year 2025. The organizations recognize the importance of investing in education to drive economic growth and prosperity in the state.
By supporting these budget requests, the organizations are advocating for policies that will help equip students with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in the workforce. This investment in education will contribute to building a strong and competitive workforce in Michigan, ultimately benefiting the state’s economy and communities. It is crucial for policymakers to prioritize funding for education to ensure that students are prepared for the jobs of today and tomorrow.
