Rep. Penelope Tsernoglou (D-East Lansing) said Tuesday afternoon that she is "done asking" House Speaker Matt Hall (R-Richland Township) to investigate Jeffrey Epstein's connections to the Interlochen Center for the Arts, demanding an immediate vote on a resolution creating a special House committee to examine the matter.

Rep. Penelope Tsernoglou (D-East Lansing) directly challenged the chair of the House Oversight Subcommittee on whether he would support Senate-passed legislation that would stop the Unemployment Insurance Agency (UIA) from collecting non-fraud payments improperly paid out during COVID.
