STATE OF MICHIGAN SAYS NO AUTHORITY TO STOP R.M.G.N., BUT COX ALSO SAYS PROPOSAL NOT VALID
Processing an initiative petition to amend the Constitution is essentially a ministerial duty that does not include having the state review a proposed amendment to see if it is constitutional, the state said in its reply to the lawsuit attempting to stop placement of the Reform Michigan Government Now (RMGN)! proposal on the November ballot.
But in a separate amicus brief, Attorney General Mike Cox said he did not think the proposal met constitutional form defining an amendment.
