Republican Gov. Rick Snyder signed historic right to work legislation Tuesday with thousands of protesters in the Capitol.
Among them were at least five busloads of union members and supporters from the Muskegon area. All five buses left Tuesday morning and joined 10,000 other protesters in Lansing.
Around 5:20 p.m., a bus full of disappointed protesters returned to the CIO hall on Western Avenue in downtown Muskegon.
“It wasn’t fair at all. It was partisan politics to its finest,” Don Kosheba of Ravenna said of the day's activities in the state House and Senate. “It’s bad for Michigan, it’s bad for working families. It’s going to push the amount of money that people make down. The wages and benefits are going to be lower.”
