When the citizens of the state voted for this they voted to keep this fund strictly for catastrophic injuries. Both Republicans and Democrats have been trying to get their hands on the money for years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are addressing that with increased license fees for electric cars in Michigan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
