Tell the MEDC - MI Money Out Of MIBA

MI Money Out of MIBA campaign opposes the use of Michigan public funds from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) to support the Michigan Israel Business Accelerator (MIBA), a Detroit-based "nonprofit" which seeks to build business relationships between Michigan and Israel, including in the weapons and defense sector. Michigan should not be using OUR public funds to subsidize business with a country carrying out a genocide, apartheid, and occupation.
