MAMA SAID

Meanwhile, Congressman Mike Bishop appears to have his hands full with Democrat Elissa Slotkin of Holly who hit the congressman as we were going to press for accepting thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from two pharmaceutical companies currently being sued jointly by Oakland and Wayne counties for their possible role in the opioid addiction problem and thousands of overdose deaths in Michigan. Bishop’s take – this year alone – $15,000 from these two. And that’s while he sits on a congressional Opioid Conference Committee addressing opioid abuse prevention. Slotkin is facing, so far, two other Democrats – Darlene Domanik of Brighton and MSU professor Christopher Smith of East Lansing.
