GOP Republicans seize power from newly elected Dems
Michigan Republicans are trying to undermine Democrats who took control of statewide seats in the general election last month.

One bill would enable the Legislature to intervene in legal battles that the attorney general does not want to defend.
Another bill is aimed at removing the secretary of state from oversight of the state’s campaign finance laws and give that authority to a bi-partisan commission.
