Excerpt: Native Americans barred from contributing to health savings accounts in some instances would gain that right under a resolution to fix the obscure mix-up pushed by U.S. Rep. John Moolenaar, R-Midland.

"The Ways and Means Committee was looking into health care issues and noticed this was an unfair part of the law so I was able to introduce the resolution," Moolenaar said. "Chief Cloutier wrote a letter of support and the legislation will help members of the Saginaw Chippewa tribe when they go to Indian Health Services in Mt. Pleasant."

Excerpt: “It’s important that we honor our veterans and those who have served our country so nobly and have earned these awards and honors," Moolenaar says. “It’s important to recognize them, as well as their families.”

Congressman John Moolenaar was in Roscommon County yesterday[Wednesay] to present medals to two men who had served in the US Army in the 1960's.
