If you're a front-line worker during the COVID-19 pandemic here in Michigan, Governor Gretchen Whitmer is working on a program to give you a tuition-free college education.

According to MLive, Whitmer announced her "Future of Frontliners" program on Wednesday, which would provide said front-line workers with a tuition-free pathway to a college, as well as technical certificate to those essential workers who don't have a college degree.

This program was inspired after the World War II legislation which allowed returning soldiers to have educational services provided.


A few types of people who would receive the benefit are grocery store workers and hospital workers.

As of right now, there is no word on where the money for this is coming from.
