Glad to see someone running who actually wants to take on big corporations and protect regular people—Savit sounds like the kind of AG Michigan needs.

If Eli Savit is serious about championing the "common man," I hope he’ll actually take on corporate greed and push for real systemic change instead of just talking the talk.
