Economic conference targets political civility
Economists and business and civic leaders concluded a week of meetings and speeches at the 2017 Mackinac Policy Conference last Friday in hope of turning their conversations into real actions.
Why should you care about all of those meetings and news? Well, some of the main issues they agreed on include restoring civilly in American politics, winning the race in connected technology and increasing economic opportunities, all are important issues to our community and the community at large.
The Arab-American community is one of the fastest growing communities in the state in terms of number and both financial and political strength, and if the state focuses or makes progress toward the highlighted issues at the conference, it would enhance the success of Arab Americans in Michigan.
We hope that our community leaders would partake in those efforts and take a front seat at the table of enhancing civility in Southeast Michigan’s political discourse. Click here for more …..
