from Chew's Views with Richard Chew (Featured Interviews) Hosted by WCPT 820

Richard Chew is joined by Jan Maino, Democratic candidate for Michigan House, District 46. Here are a few key points from the conversation: - Maino is a lifelong resident of the district, a social worker and mental health therapist, and president of the East Jackson Board of Education. - Her campaign emphasizes public education, mental health access, affordable housing, local jobs, and bringing state resources to the district. - The district has about 91,000 residents across urban, suburban, and rural areas; the decline of auto parts manufacturing has contributed to job loss. - Maino described bipartisan support gained through direct voter conversations and identified the race as an effort to flip a Republican-held seat. - The Drive Jackson 20-year plan focuses on attracting businesses, restoring buildings for housing, and retaining younger residents; arts and culture are viewed as economic and community assets.
