Bill > SR0060

This resolution designates June 23-29, 2025, as Grassroots Week in Michigan, aiming to recognize and appreciate precinct delegates and grassroots leaders who play a crucial role in the democratic process. The resolution defines "grassroots" as political movements organized by everyday people rather than elected officials, and highlights the importance of precinct delegates, who are local residents acting as a link between their community and political parties. These delegates perform essential tasks such as voter registration, participating in party conventions, and representing their precinct's preferences. The resolution emphasizes that a healthy democracy requires participation from every person and acknowledges the significant time, energy, and passion grassroots organizers contribute to building civic engagement. By adopting this resolution, the Michigan Senate salutes the service of precinct delegates and encourages all Michigan residents to express gratitude for their active involvement in the democratic process.
