Bill Aims To Keep Graduates In Michigan

A state Senator has introduced legislation that would offer tax breaks for graduates who live and work in Michigan.

The bill from East Lansing Democrat Curtis Hertel Jr would offer tax credits for a portion of a student’s debt.

The amount would be capped at about $2,300.

Hertel says college grads are one of the state’s most valuable resources and lawmakers should be doing what they can to keep them in Michigan and help them succeed.
