It includes red, white and yellow onions that were distributed by ProSource Inc. and last imported on August 27th.
Two—The latest Ending Homelessness in Michigan annual report finds homelessness fell 19-percent in 2020 compared to 2019. Eviction moratoriums enacted due to COVID-19 are credited with helping the numbers fall along with a state Eviction Diversion Program to give renters relief as they were hurt by the pandemic.
