Following her service to the state, Gretchen taught at the University of Michigan and Michigan State University. In 2016, she stepped up to serve as the prosecuting attorney of Ingham County, restoring integrity to the office after a scandal forced the elected prosecutor to resign. As governor, Gretchen will focus on fixing problems that will actually make a difference in people’s lives right now, like fixing the roads, making health care more affordable, cleaning up our drinking water, improving education and skills training, and repealing the retirement tax.
