Issue Position: Community Court

Issue Position

"I fought hard to obtain funding to establish the state's first Community Court program to combat crimes like prostitution, auto theft, and property destruction in our neighborhoods. With the traditional court system overburdened, this program addresses the demand for more resources to uphold the law in our communities. Community Courts have proven successful across the country in reducing not only quality of life crimes, but also more major crimes, and it is my hope that we can do the same here in Michigan."
