To: "alacro-l at lists.ala.org" <alacro-l at lists.ala.org>


As the last voting night of the 2015 legislative year wound down,
legislation that would bar libraries and school districts from distributing
factual and unbiased information for 60 days prior to an election was sent
to Michigan Governor Snyder for his signature. The House adopted a floor
substitute to a campaign finance bill that included this measure and took
the legislation from 12 pages long to 53 pages at the end of a nearly
12-hour session.
