More than $50 million in additional investments for numerous programs will be available under legislation signed last recently by Gov. Rick Snyder.
The bill increases funding for various departments and agencies including a uniform statewide sexual assault evidence kit tracking system, opioid addiction response programs as well as reimbursing the costs incurred by National Guard deployments to aid in hurricane relief.
Snyder said supporting a sexual assault evidence kit tracking system “is long overdue and will help survivors of these horrific crimes.”
