Scot Bertram | 50-percent of voters in Michigan support President Trump’s efforts to handle immigration

Here are 3 big things you need to know—

 

One — President Trump is making major changes in the form of tariffs on what he calls "Liberation Day."  The tariffs cover a wide-range of products and are targeting many countries, including Canada, Mexico, China and the European Union.  Trump says trading partners have looted, pillaged, and raped American industries for decades, leading to a loss of U.S. jobs and manufacturing. 

 

Two ----  Democrats are taking the feds to court in an effort to stop eleven billion dollars in public health funding cuts.  Twenty-three states and the District of Columbia filed a lawsuit against the Department of Health and Human Services, asking for the cuts to be put on hold.  They argue the administration made the cuts unlawfully without analyzing the benefits of the funding, or possible consequences of removing it. 

 

And number three  --- A new poll from Marketing Resource Group finds 50-percent of voters in Michigan support President Trump's efforts to handle immigration and deport people in the U.S. illegally.  That is a huge jump from their poll last spring that found just 21-percent approved of then-President Biden's handling of the same issues. Voters in northern Michigan are 71-percent in support of President Trump's efforts while metro Detroit has the lowest support at 42-percent.
