Shortly after 8 p.m. Thursday night, State Rep. Dave Agema (R-Greenville) posted the following status update to his Facebook page announcing the amendment:

I had an amendment put into the education budget that takes 5% away from colleges that give same sex/unmarried benefits and places up to $60 million of that into the MPSRS K-12 budget if colleges do not stop skirting the law and the will of the people. Colleges can’t say they are short of money when they skirt the law and give such benefits. The Dems didn’t like this – it passed.

I am at a complete loss of words... This is outrageous, it breaks my heart and my head all at the same time.

And if a mod sees this:

It's only Michigan. I didn't get to put Michigan in the title for some reason. Can that be changed? Thanks.
