He also said his first act as a Democratic governor would be to do away with an assisted suicide ban if the Legislature passes one this year. And he didn't stop there.
"I'll seek to do away with any of the limits that restrict victims' rights to bring lawsuits," said Fieger, who on Wednesday won a $13 million judgment for the family of a man who died in the Lansing jail.
He also said he would repeal the state law that heavily penalizes public school teachers who strike and pledged to strengthen environmental laws to protect the Great Lakes from pollution.
