Friends,<\/p>\n\n\n\n


There is no doubt that the past year and a half has been difficult and traumatic. The pandemic impacted families across the world and certainly right here in Michigan. If you suffered from COVID-19 or lost a loved one to this dreadful disease, my sincerest condolences. My heart and thoughts are with you and your family.

The good news is there is light at the end of the tunnel and that light grows stronger every single day! While our state works toward our goal of a 70% vaccination rate, it\u2019s still important for all of us to continue to pay attention and follow MDHHS guidelines. The sooner we are all vaccinated, the sooner we can get back to normal.

Over this past year, I\u2019ve been working hard in Lansing for Michigan families, fighting to ensure all residents have
adequate COVID relief and recovery resources. I have been, and will continue to, proudly advocate for equitable and quality education as well as more affordable, available, and accessible childcare for all. I hope you find the contents of this newsletter helpful as we look forward to spending the summer days ahead making memories with our families and loved ones.

If you have concerns, problems, or need any help finding a vaccine or dealing with a state-related issue such as unemployment or rental assistance, please reach out to my office. You can email me at SenRBayer@senate.michigan.gov<\/a> or call me at (517) 373-2417 (or toll-free at (888) 347-8012). I wish you a wonderful, healthy, and healing summer.

Working Hard for You in Lansing,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building the K-12 Budget<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, my biggest responsibility in Lansing is to pass a budget for the people of Michigan. Due to COVID-19, this year is a bit different.
Thanks to a generous amount of money provided from Congress and the President, the Michigan Legislature has more money to work with for our budget this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These federal funds were allocated to help jump-start our economy, but they also serve to make our schools safer and more effective in the wake of the pandemic. As we continue
to talk and negotiate through the upcoming budgets and ensuing supplemental budgets, my priority is getting our children back in schools safely so they can catch up on the integral learning opportunities that were lost this past
year.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our children deserve the opportunity to succeed, no matter where they are in the state. Creating an equitable system is necessary for their future, our economy, and for everyone. We have an incredible opportunity with these federal funds to help our educators and school administrators in the wake of the pandemic, and I hope we can all work together to put these federal dollars to good use for Michigan\u2019s students and their future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Getting the Right Start<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Countless studies show that children who attend
high-quality, center-based childcare, pre kindergarten, or preschool programs tend to have better pre-academic and language skills, perform better in math and reading in the early grades of elementary school, and have improved outcomes among children in families with low education or low incomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
