Dear Fellow Detroiters:

I am honored to serve as the State Senator for Michigan's 4th District, and want to sincerely thank you for visiting my web site.  As your Senator, I will work my hardest to ensure your rights are protected and your interests are served. It is my mission to serve not only you, but the City of Detroit and the State of Michigan as a whole.

My agenda in office includes increasing our State's economic revenue, restoring trust in our City's and State's public servants, and working diligently to offer relief to those who find themselves in challenging circumstances.

Currently, the emergency financial manager bills are jeopardizing the City of Detroit's representative democracy and our rights. As signed by Governor Snyder, these bills essentially give the emergency financial manager the power to independently control our city and our schools. It is now my mission to amend these bills and keep Lansing politics from ruining our great city.

I welcome your input and sincerely appreciate your feedback. Please feel free to contact me or my office should you have any questions or concerns by phone at toll-free 866-348-6304, or email my office at senvsmith@senate.mi.gov.

Respectfully yours,
Senator Virgil Smith
