"LANSING – Legislation approved under former Gov. Rick Snyder to allow for construction of a tunnel to house a new Enbridge Line 5 crude oil pipeline under the Straits of Mackinac is constitutional, the Court of Claims ruled Thursday.
The ruling by Judge Michael Kelly overturns an opinion by Attorney General Dana Nessel and is also a setback for Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who has ordered state agencies to stop work on approvals and other actions related to the tunnel.
Nessel and Whitmer both said they will appeal the ruling."
