    Even as a conservative, Whitmer seems to be doing a lot of good for her voters.

    Free lunches, better resources for kids and more funding for ELL.

    Although I’m skeptical of too much more spending on public schools, as we spend an absurd amount more per full time student compared to our peer countries, as long as the funds are directed to doing good like this, instead of just the bloat at the administration level, it’s agreeable.
