Grand Rapids, MI (WGHN) – Aric Nesbitt has announced his “Make it Home Safely in Michigan” public safety agenda, pledging a number of initiatives, reforms and policy changes at his town hall with law enforcement officers from across Michigan.
“If we want families to make it home safely in Michigan, we must stand with our law enforcement heroes – not with illegal immigrants and radical leftists who want to defund the police,” Nesbitt said. “As governor, I’ll be the most pro-Second Amendment and pro-law enforcement governor in Michigan history, and I’ll never waver in my support of law and order so that everyone can make it home safely in Michigan.”
Nesbitt’s ‘make it home safely in Michigan’ agenda includes:
-
Launch “OPERATION TUEBOR”: Stand with President Trump to launch the largest ICE deployment in Michigan history, and deport all criminal illegal aliens across Michigan.
-
Ban sanctuary cities: Sign an executive order on day one to ban all sanctuary cities and other jurisdictions in Michigan, and remove state funding for local governments that refuse to comply.
-
Protect our Second Amendment rights: Repeal radical red-flag gun laws, make Michigan a constitutional carry state and veto any attempt to infringe on law-abiding citizen’s right to self-defense.
-
Keep criminals in jail: Ban cashless bail for violent felons and give prosecutors the tools needed so victims get the justice they deserve.
-
Fire failed MSP director: Appoint leaders endorsed by frontline troopers to rebuild morale and efficiency. Launch a full audit of the Michigan State Police, redirecting spending found to be waste, fraud and abuse to help with new equipment, recruitment and training. Additionally, create a whistleblower hotline for MSP officers to report corruption to the Legislature and governor’s office.
-
Protect officers on the ground: Fight to put in place a mandatory 15-year sentence for anyone attempting to disarm a police officer and veto on legislation that takes away qualified immunity from our officers.
-
Stronger court systems: Appoint judges who will stand with law enforcement, reform indigent defense to target resources on criminal prosecutions and ensure local departments have enough prosecutors to manage caseloads.
-
Bring back state run mental health hospitals: The largest mental health institution in each county shouldn’t be the county jail. We will reopen state facilities to treat the root causes, reducing jail overcrowding.
