Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer Denied Request For Extension Of Pandemic Executive Powers

After being saved by elements of the corrupt FBI from being kidnapped by leftist, BLM-supporting militia nuts, (white supremacists), the woman who has done more than anyone to aid Trump's re-election chances has just been denied a request for the extension of the emergency powers which she invoked to curb the spread of the coronavirus.

Michigan Supreme Court justices reversed a lower court's opinion that supported the governor's use of executive powers amid the pandemic when they voted 6-1 against halting the precedential effect of its Oct. 2 opinion until Oct. 30. They reaffirmed their initial 4-3 ruling that declared unconstitutional her use of the 1945 emergency powers law.

Monday's Supreme Court ruling is in response to a lawsuit brought by the Michigan Legislature. The Oct. 2 ruling, which was a 4-3 decision striking down the Emergency Powers of Governor Act of 1945, was in response to questions sent to the court by a federal judge handling a lawsuit brought by medical service providers in western Michigan.

Ten days ago, the court ruled Whitmer, a Democrat who is a former prosecutor and a first-term governor, had no authority to issue or renew executive orders relating to Covid-19 beyond April 30.

Whitmer filed a motion last Monday, saying more time was needed to "allow for an orderly transition during which some responsive measures can be placed under alternative executive authority and the Governor and Legislature can work to address many other pandemic-related matters that currently fall under executive orders."
