Billionaires, private equity are driving up costs in Michigan | Opinion
June 1, 2026, 10:59 a.m. ET Drive through any town in Michigan, from Monroe to the suburbs of Grand Rapids to the Upper Peninsula, and you’ll hear the same conversation at kitchen tables: Everything is just too expensive. We feel it at the checkout counter, in our monthly rent checks and even when we try to sign our kids up for daycare or summer camp. We are told these rising prices are just the natural result of a messy economy, but there is a more calculated force at work.
Opinion: Democrats must fight for workers in 2026
The federal government might be open again, but it still isn’t working for working people. After 43 days of shutdown, Washington politicians struck a deal that protected the powerful and left the rest of us behind. Too many Democrats refused to hold the line — they forgot what they were fighting for. Now, President Donald Trump and his allies in Congress are set to gut healthcare access for tens of millions of people, leaving them facing soaring premiums and higher out-of-pocket costs.
A Federal Monitor Is Intervening in the UAW’s Cease-Fire Call
As Michigan lawyers involved in labor law and policy, we were shocked to see that the federal monitor overseeing the United Auto Workers (UAW)’s return to good governance has twice commented on the union’s positions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. That matter is completely outside of the monitor’s scope, and his improper interference in the union’s affairs calls into question his ability to continue to serve effectively in this role. Let’s look at how we got here.

The Collapse of US Haiti Policy
After the earthquake that devastated Haiti in 2010, a popular musician known as Sweet Mickey won the favor of quite the power couple – then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.N.

We Need Smart Policy for Automakers to Profit on EVs
Four years ago, I tried to do something to prevent the train wreck we are now seeing with EV adoption in the U.S. Unfortunately, I failed, and here we are. We have a problem in this country of being unable to see that bold policy is necessary to facilitate the success of the capitalist economy. We love talk of revolution and disruption in business, but we are allergic to making the policy moves necessary to allow such change to happen. I have been an environmental activist most of my life.
