Growing Michigan Polulation Council Adds Three Lawmakers Under 50 (www.bridgemi.com)

The average age on the council now a ripe young age of 52. Something tells me these people don’t actually care to understand why younger generations are leaving.

I support this initiative but having decrepit lawmakers decide what to invest in for the future seems like a joke.

I’m not understanding why the bulk of this council isn’t under the age of 35. Those are the people that have stayed or moved here and have the most hands on experience as to why and what they need/want to make that stay permanent.

This council just seems like an ineffective waste of time and money.

Councils like this are prestige positions, they aren't actually going to solve anything, it's about making supporters feel important.
