Multibillion-dollar battle brewing behind closed doors will affect every American

LANSING, Mich. — Fifteen years working as an emergency room nurse has convinced Kim Bogan that the only way to fix the American healthcare system is to tear it down and start over. Her patients arriving for triage are sicker than ever. They can’t afford many of the prescriptions they get in the ER. And sometimes when patients die, she wonders if she could have saved them had she not been caring for five or six other people at once. That’s why she spent the past year shuttling between 12-hour shifts at this city’s Sparrow Hospital and campaigning for Abdul El-Sayed, the Democrat who made “Medic...

Free speech lawsuit challenges Michigan State University's trustee ethics code

(The Center Square) – Michigan State University is facing a federal lawsuit challenging recent revisions to its Board of Trustees’ code of ethics. The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, a national nonprofit organization, is representing university trustee Michael Balow in the lawsuit. “MSU’s revised code censors dissent,” said FIRE attorney Heather Pincus. “If a trustee criticizes a board decision, the trustee could suffer serious consequences, up to referral for removal from office. But if a trustee praises a board decision, the code imposes no consequences. That’s viewpoint discrimination, which the First Amendment forbids.” The revised policy requires trustees to “uphold the university’s reputation” and states trustees “will not undermine and will support the majority decision of the board.” It also requires trustees to raise concerns in “appropriate settings” before board action and sign an acknowledgement agreeing to comply or face sanctions. “But what exactly does ‘undermine’ mean, and who gets to decide?” said Balow. "The majority of the board? The amended code also requires that we will ‘not provide inaccurate, misleading, or false information concerning the University.' But who gets to decide what is ‘inaccurate’? Again, the majority of the board?” According to the foundation, the revisions were made
