Livingston County residents spent two hours telling commissioners what they thought about the proposed illegal immigrant policy before it was passed unanimously.

Most were against it, but it did have some support.

Read what some residents said here:

Last week, @Tess_Petoskey and I wrapped up a story that's been in the works for awhile. We spoke with parents to talk about their experiences in an area plaguing much of Michigan: childcare access.

[Karly Graham (she/her) @KarlyGrahamJRN]

Instead of celebrating promotions, parents fear for their childcare plans.

Instead of heading in for on-call shifts, parents have to miss work.

These are just some of the stories we heard:

As high school and college-aged students head back to school, local businesses are relying on older staff members to fill the gaps. But for many Michigan companies, student workers aren't a seasonal staple — they're a year-round treasure.

While the monarch may not have federal protections, anyone with a patch of grass can offer food and shelter by planting milkweed, the only plant monarchs lay eggs on and the only food a monarch caterpillar will eat.

This book about a girl who won’t eat her Lima beans and so her body changes in all these disturbing ways. Kind of messed up, but I was obsessed with it to the point I memorized the book and tricked my parents into thinking I could read

[Robert J Wolf MD @robertjwolfmd]

What's the first book you remember reading?
