Consumers Energy Bankrolling Opposition to Michigan Political Spending Limits

Consumers Energy's parent company, CMS Energy, has donated half of the funds raised to combat restrictions on utility political spending in Michigan.

The campaign, Protect MI Free Speech, has received $15,000 from CMS Energy and $15,000 from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, which would also be prohibited from making campaign contributions under the proposal.

The Michiganders for Money Out of Politics framework would ban regulated utilities like Consumers Energy from giving money to state officeholders and political party committees.
