State Representative Ann Bollin has demonstrated her commitment to government efficiency by returning a portion of her office budget back to the state of Michigan. In a recent announcement, Bollin revealed that she has returned 3% of her 2023 office budget, amounting to a savings of $3,915.53. Over the course of her five years in office, Bollin has returned more than $37,000 in taxpayer dollars to the state.

Bollin, who represents Livingston and Oakland counties, emphasized the importance of responsible financial management in government. She stated, "Returning a portion of my office budget is a tangible expression of my firm belief that government should be efficient and mindful of every dollar." Bollin further added, "Government leaders must respect taxpayers and resist the temptation to spend every dime just because it’s there. I will always prioritize the needs of the people over unnecessary expenses, ensuring that every taxpayer dollar is a wise investment in the wellbeing of our state and our communities."

As the Whitmer administration prepares to present the governor's executive recommendation for the 2024-25 state budget, Bollin urged the governor to prioritize essential services and seek ways to maintain the efficiency and effectiveness of state government. She stated, "As people throughout Michigan continue to pinch pennies to pay their bills, I hope the governor does the same, prioritizing essential services while looking for ways to keep state government running as efficiently and effectively as possible."

Bollin's commitment to serving her constituents extends beyond financial management. She encourages residents in need of assistance with state government or those wishing to express their views on pending legislation to contact her office.
