Great news! But not mentioned-- #immigrants are making MI stronger. Without them, MI would have lost population in 2025, same as in 2020, 2010 or 2000.  #RealTruth is that we couldn't have done this without being a welcoming state for immigrants.

Vibrant communities start with welcoming everyone at the table.

Immigrants bring the culture, innovation, and drive that shape stronger cities and economies.

As Nelson Mandela said, “Cultural diversity is not a threat…” — it’s our future.
