The Michigan Supreme Court made a significant ruling on Wednesday, overruling the Legislature and reinstating major changes to the state's minimum wage and paid sick leave laws. This decision is seen as a victory for low-wage workers in the state.
In a 4-3 decision, the court determined that Republican lawmakers had violated the state constitution in their handling of the laws. These laws were the result of a 2018 petition drive that garnered over 280,000 signatures from Michigan residents.
