Updated: Mar 21, 2022


This very expensive mailer, paid for by A Better Michigan Tomorrow, a non-profit, is the third one of its kind that has been mailed to households in Emmet County.

According to Simon Schuster, of the Michigan Campaign Finance Network, A Better Michigan Tomorrow is a "dark money group" that was created in September 2021. Opines Schuster, "Because it was created so recently, the unsettling truth is that we may not even have a picture who may be behind it financially until the end of next year - if that!" Hmm. So why are they promoting Tom Leonard? We may never know. In the meantime, let's advocate for the sunshine of transparency in this darkness.
