There’s mixed reaction from the Detroit Regional Chamber on Governor Whitmer’s State of the State.

Chamber Vice president Brad Williams says Whitmer talking about the impact of tariffs on Canada and Mexico was a highlight for them.

Canada is an economic friend with us,” Williams said. “In fact, 68% of Michiganders believe that our relationship with Canada is critical to our economic success. So the governor is right on in tune with the business community and Michiganders. And so we need to work together to ensure Washington understands the importance of this issue.”

Williams says the chamber doesn’t agree with Whitmer about a corporate income tax because he says that will hurt small businesses.
