LANSING, MI - The Michigan State Housing Development Authority rolled out a program last month that offers resettlement support to refugees and other immigrants.

The Newcomer Rental Subsidy provides refugees, asylees and immigrants from areas like Ukraine, Cuba, Haiti and African countries about $300 to $500 a month in rental subsidies. Assistance is available for up to 12 months.

Amy Hovey, executive director of the Michigan State Housing Development Authority, said the program aligns with a goal to increase affordable housing across the state for everyone “including those seeking to build a new life here.”

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

Subsidize something, and you'll get more of it.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

The way that Michigan is going, it will soon become "a lost state" to traditional America, along with others such as California, Oregon, Washington, Massachusetts, and Illinois.

So glad we moved the heck out of there.

They tried to revitalize the Detroit area numerous times only to have the people destroy it.  Muslims have overtaken a whole city and now they're handing ILLEGALS a free ride. 

At this rate it will all become a cesspool like Detroit.

Unfortunately, once the liberals get their claws in a state as Whitmer has in MI, our entire nation will be turned into a 3rd world country.

Again there is something to be said for building, maintaining and increasing conservatism state by state, from the ground up.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
