LANSING, Mich. (AP) — The Michigan Legislature returns Tuesday for two or three weeks of voting with a number of issues on tap before it adjourns for the year.

Lawmakers face few hard deadlines to act. But some major bills have seen little traction all year, leaving proponents to hope for movement in December. Other priorities, like enticing a massive data center to western Michigan with tax breaks, have just popped up.

Gov. Rick Snyder’s proposal to split Detroit’s troubled state-run school district in two next summer and spend $70 million annually over a decade to pay off debt while launching a new district is hitting opposition from all sides.

The first update of energy laws since 2008 remains a top agenda item and could win approval in the House.
