We, the Constituents of the State of Michigan. Are petitioning to save the Michigan Promise Scholarship, under Public Act 479 of 2006 signed into law by Governor Granholm on December 21, 2006, provides up to $4,000 to high school graduates for successfully completing two years of postsecondary education beginning with the high school graduating class of 2007.

This scholarship is vital to the higher education of the residents of Michigan, and without it the economy of the State of Michigan will suffer even more then what it already is.

By signing this petition you the constituent are agreeing to not vote for any elected official upon re-election who agrees to veto the Michigan Promise Scholarship.

    • It's not a PROMISE if you back out on your end of the bargain. Might as well call it the BROKEN Promise scholarship now...

    • I am very disappointed with the message that we are sending out students. This was an earned scholarship that states that it is a "PROMISE". Take a minute and really think about how hard these kids worked and how proud they were when they earned it. I am watching this very carefully and have written many letters.

    • Please keep your promise and give us this scholorship. I was counting on this to help pay for my tuition. If you don't give us this PROMISE then you will be making a lot of people angry and you will lose a lot of votes. So please don't take away our scholorship. I will have worked hard for nothing.

    • I think it is utterly ridiculous that the State of Michigan would vote to rescind the Promise scholarship. It is unlawful and utterly moronic to go back on an agreement made to us years and years ago! If Michigan is in such a poor economic state now, what do you, the lawmakers, think it will be like in five or ten years when currentand future college students aren't enrollig because they can't afford it?!

    • A promise is a PROMISE. Not just a sort-a kind-a maybe you'll get some money deal.

    • I am a recipient of the Michigan Merit Award and waited to take it my junior and senior years in college because that is when I needed it the most. This still applies to my case and I desperately need this money to help pay for my schooling so that the financial burden on myself will be decreased when I enter graduate schools next year. Thank you.
