Stateside for Thursday, March 28th, 2013

Michigan officially becomes a right-to-work state today. It's the 24th state in the nation to do so, and the 2nd in the Midwest.

On today's show, we'll find out just what Michiganders think of the new controversial law.

And we'll find out why a group of Republicans in Michigan are calling on Republican National Committeeman Dave Agema to resign.

We also talk about how budget cuts are affecting Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, and we'll talk about the history of Belle Isle.

And we'll hear about "Nerd Night" in Ann Arbor.

But first, we talk with state budget director John Nixon about coming federal budget cuts and how he expects these cuts to affect Michigan's bottom line.
