As governor\, she has signed over 1\,000 bipartisan bills and four balanced\, bipartisan budgets to deliver on the kitchen-table issues\, grow the economy\, and create good-paying jobs in every region of the state. \nSince the governor took office\, she has announced 35\,000 new auto jobs and used bipartisan economic development tools to bring home more than $16 billion in transformational investments\, creating 16\,000+ jobs and putting Michigan in the lead on innovating the future of cars\, chips\, batteries\, and more. She has fixed nearly 20\,000 lane miles of roads and over 1\,400 bridges\, and funded programs putting almost 200\,000 Michiganders on tuition-free paths to higher education and skills training. \nThe governor has made the largest education investments in state history four years in a row\, delivering the highest state per-student funding ever\, increasing on-campus mental health resources\, and helping hire more qualified teachers\, literacy coaches\, counselors\, and staff. Additionally\, the governor has expanded low or no-cost child care to 150\,000 more kids. \nGovernor Whitmer has also protected clean water for every community\, investing $4 billion to upgrade drinking water and replace lead service lines\, supporting 57\,000 jobs. She made the single largest ever investment in state and local parks across Michigan.Since the governor took office\, Michigan has won over $16 billion in investments and become home to “the next Silicon Valley” for mobility innovation\, the #1 emerging startup ecosystem and the fastest growing clean energy job sector in the country. \nGovernor Whitmer achieved this progress alongside three dynamic elected statewide leaders: Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist\, Attorney General Dana Nessel\, and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson. \n			\n		\n	\n\n		\n\n\n\n			\n			\n						\n\n												\n											\n											VIEW BIO\n		\n					\n		\n		\n				\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					Exclusively for DEC Members and Accompanied Guests				\n				\n				\n				\n					About THIS MEETING				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					AGENDA				\n				\n				\n				\n									** Please Note: No Speaker Reception for this meeting ** 11:15 a.m. Registration & Network Café 12:15 p.m. Program (Theater-Style\, Unreserved Seating) 1:15 p.m. Strolling Lunch with Open Seatin 								\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n						\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					TICKETS				\n				\n				\n				\n									$55 – DEC Members $65 – Guests of DEC Members 								\n				\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n		\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					PRESIDING OFFICER				\n				\n				\n				\n									Sandy PierceBoard ChairDetroit Economic Club 								\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n					MODERATOR				\n				\n				\n				\n									Gary TorgowChairHuntington Bank 								\n				\n				\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n		\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					VENUE				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n	\n	Downtown Detroit\n	\n	\n\n\n	Detroit\,\n\n	MI\n\n\n	United States\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n\n		\n	\n				\n				\n				\n		\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					DETAILS				\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n					\n		\n			Tuesday\, December 08\, 2026\n\n		\n\n\n	\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n		\n		\n\n\n11:15 am\n\n		\n\n\n\n	\n	  -  \n\n2:15 pm
