To whom it may concern,


This is a free and open petition in accordance with Act 116 of 1954, to remove Gretchen Whitmer from the office of Governor of the State of Michigan. The cause for her removal is dereliction of duty and endangering the public welfare.


In a recent statement, Whitmer threatened physicians and pharmacists who might think to use the widely known malaria drug, hydroxychloroquine, as treatment for Covid-19. The Governor was quoted in saying that individuals prescribing those treatments may be investigated for administrative action. Not only does this type of rhetoric threaten the public health and welfare, it utilizes the platform afforded to Michigan's Governor to intimidate health practitioners and other medical professionals. By ignoring potential treatments and other preventative measures, Governor Whitmer is denying medical care to those who require it and lengthening the timetable before treatment will be available.

(UPDATE 4/11/2020)

Governor Whitmer has only furthered her authoritarian overreach by banning the sale of seeds and deeming their purchase non-essential. Governor Whitmer is denying basic rights without cause. Alcohol and marijuana have been deemed essential, but citizens cannot plant flowers or gardens? It's nonsensical and tyrannical.


Therefore, the Governor's behavior, in conjunction with her forced economic shutdown and a history of bypassing congressional approval to execute partisan and, perhaps, constitutionally invalid legislation, We the People find Gretchen Whitmer, unfit for her position and are asking for your support in instituting her removal from the office of Governor.

No governor, democrat or republican, should have total state of emergency power for an unlimited period of time. The elected legislature must give approval for an extension past the 28 days allowed in MI constitution.

I am a Michigan resident and I am registered to vote. I have no confidence in our Governor, Ms. G. Whitmer and want her to be recalled in a lawful recall election. Her actions go well past limits and exceed the authority of any Governor of any State in the US Federal Republic.

You can paddle a canoe with a friend but not ride a jet ski with a friend. Cannot go fishing in a motor boat with family. State Police stopping out of state licenced cars to see why they are here. We still have a Constitution unless Gretchen revloked it.

She has abused her power and is infringing on my God given, constitutional rights as a free citizen of this state/country. Forcing me to remain in my home, loss of wages, and possibly my home.

Whitmer has overstepped the boundaries of common sense and what is BEST for the citizens of MI. There was no need to shutdown almost the entire state. Lawn care, construction sites and such are easy to observe the social distances. We need our plants and seeds to grow our own garden.

She has exceeded her legal authority and endangers Michigan citizens. She has shown herself to be a tyrant assuming powers not granted to her. She denies medical care to the people of Michigan.
