pushing back over President Trump's proposed Big Beautiful Bill, warning
that it could cost Michigan nearly nine hundred million dollars
a year, stripping food and healthcare from hundreds of thousands.
The bill slash is funding for SNAP and Medicaid. Whitmer
says the cuts would hurt kids, working families, and the
elderly the most. She's urging Michigan's congressional Republicans to oppose
(00:25):
this before it reaches a Senate vote. This weekend is
Michigan's three free weekend June seventh and eighth, so you
can fish, ride orv trails, and also visit state parks.
You don't need a license and there are no fees,

adding more gas pumps altogether.

to usually and it's got a couple of pumps, but
it's always backed.

on gas, I get it. But that would help tremendously.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Yeah, So weekday hours are now six am to ten pm,
so a little bit earlier, a little bit later. And
they're also adding a few pumps. I don't know how
many pumps they're adding locally here in westpecial Again, this
seems like it's more of a nationwide initiative, but people
so far are saying that, you know, this has helped
the length of lines so far.
