Legislative committee meetings are already underway this week at the Capitol. Yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee met to review a number of bills. Today, the Senate Natural Resources Committee will meet to convene a confirmation hearing for Heidi Grether, Gov. Rick Snyder’s nominee to lead the Department of Environmental Quality.

Current State talks with Sen. Rick Jones (R-Grand Ledge), chairman of the Judiciary committee, and Sen. Phil Pavlov (R-St. Clair Township), chairman of the Natural Resources committee.
