R.I.P. Congressman Paul Mitchell

Former Congressman, Paul Mitchell, succumbed to an aggressive form of cancer at age 64.

He represented the same district Candice Miller once represented and that Lisa McClain represents today.

Prior to serving in Congress, Mr. Mitchell led the effort to defeat "Proposal A," a measure 79 percent of Michigan voters rejected. This unpopular tax increase proposal to supplement road funding and to fund pork barrel spending was supported by both Snyder and Whitmer.

I knew he wasn't doing well a month ago from some mutual friends.


Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

He was one of a handful of politicians that I actually respected. He will definitely be missed.
