Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer plans to urge state lawmakers to pass legislation that would provide free community college tuition for all high school graduates during her sixth State of the State speech on Wednesday.
Whitmer also prioritized community college access in her annual address last year. State lawmakers responded by temporarily lowering the minimum age for free tuition from 25 to 21 years old. The Democratic governor now wants to expand the program by removing all age requirements for free community college, according to details of her plan provided to The Associated Press by Whitmer’s office.
Whitmer’s administration created the Michigan Reconnect program in 2021, aiming to increase the percentage of the state’s workforce with a postsecondary degree or training from 50.5% to 60% by 2030. It made Michigan residents 25 years and older eligible for free community college tuition.

“Admission is open to all high school graduates, GED recipients, college transfer students and persons 18 years of age or older.”
Note it says “and persons 18 years or older” and not “or.” This means you have to be both 18 or older and a high school graduate or a GED recipient and 18 years or older.
My initial point stands and you’re still lazy and incorrect.
If you’ve seen their other comments, reading is not their strong suit even though they claim to be smarter than everyone and dropped out of high school.
