Michigan Senate Run: DTE Bills, Roads, Transparency

from The Middle Ground Mic · host Joe

It started with a simple question from a voter that proves our government is broken: "What is a senator?"In this in-depth conversation, I sit down with Marcie Grzywacz, an ICU nurse, mother, and candidate for Michigan State Senate (District 4). We discuss her fight for transparency on her local city council, the frustrating "blurred lines" that disconnect voters from their government, and the kitchen table issues—from outrageous DTE bills to crumbling roads—that Lansing needs to solve.This isn't just a political interview; it's a diagnosis of a system that has lost touch with the people it serves.Learn more about Marcie Grzywacz and her campaign:https://www.marcieg.com/Chapters:(00:00) - The Question That Proves the System is Broken(04:16) - Who is Marcie Grzywacz?
