Voters in the Alpena-Montmorency-Alcona Educational Service District approved a 10-year renewal of its special education millage, with 67.38% voting in favor. The 1.2872-mill levy will remain at its current rate from 2027 through 2036, so the renewal will not increase property owners’ tax bills, and is expected to generate about $3.54 million in 2027. The funding supports special education programs at Pied Piper School and services provided with local school districts, including specialized instruction, therapy, behavioral support, and early intervention for students with disabilities. District officials thanked voters and community partners for backing the services, which have been supported by the millage since its initial approval in 1989.

He also expressed interest in working with Democrats on immigration, while appointing hardliner Stephen Miller as chief of staff signaled no clear retreat from the crackdown.
