Michigan Governor Whitmer Replaces Randy Richardville With Sam Singh Over Child Abuse & Neglect Board - But Why?

I bet this has something to do with his experience with the Michigan Nonprofit Association because it is a network with Michigan universities so it could be a number of things:


One day, someone created a fake Facebook account, and attempted to use a director's name to offer me [(sic) $20K in a United Nation grant....that I did not have to payback....because it was free money.]

Yeah.

That was so ghetto because they also addressed me as, "Miss Beverly".

Right.

So, I just so happen to call the director of National Counsel of Nonprofits, because I went to grade school with her, and told her that someone had hijacked her online identity using her organization.

The U.S. Census case is still in SCOTUS, and it has to do with parental rights, which all started in Michigan.

For the aforementioned reasons, I am calling this move an act of stealin' the children, land & votes, but, hey, what do I know?

I know I see MSU and GO BLUE!

Gubernatorial Appointments: Richardville Out, Singh In

Those appointments, as well as appointments to the following boards, were announced by the Governor's office this week:

Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention Board 'Children’s Trust Fund'

- Kelle Jo ILITCH, of Bloomfield Hills, a board member for Ilitch Charities, was appointed to replace Sean BERTOLINO to serve a term expiring Dec. 19, 2022

State Rep. Sam Singh (repeatedly) made Michigan history

EAST LANSING – Sam Singh was the first Indian-American to serve in the Michigan House, and that made him the first Indian-American to serve as minority leader when he became the chamber's top Democrat in January 2017.

In fact, Singh has a knack for making history.

Before joining the Legislature, he was one the state's youngest city council members when he joined the East Lansing council at age 24. He served a dozen years there, two of them as the city's youngest mayor — the first person of color to hold that position.

He's long said his parents, who came to the U.S. from India before he was born, taught him the value of what this country gives to its people and the importance of giving back.

Having spent the entirety of his House career in the Democratic minority, Singh has seen only six of his bills signed into law by Republican Gov. Rick Snyder. But he said he's still made a difference by using the bully pulpit to force the GOP majority to focus on his issues: schools, roads and higher education.

"I've used my position to highlight the deficiencies, which I think in the end has forced the other side to put more money in" than they would have otherwise, Singh said.

Singh, 47, can't seek reelection to the state House because of term limits, and his state Senate district is already occupied by a Democrat. So, for the first time since 1995, he's not on any ballot.

Singh is one of three Greater Lansing lawmakers — state Sen. Rick Jones, R-Grand Ledge, and state Rep. Tom Cochran, D-Mason, are the others — who are being term-limited out of the Legislature this year and are not seeking another public office.

He isn't sure what he'll do next. He'd like to work in a Democratic administration, should someone from his team win in November (he's endorsed Gretchen Whitmer, who preceded him in the House).

Failing that, he'll likely work again in the nonprofit sector (he ran the Michigan Nonprofit Association before being elected to the Legislature).
