SIFMA urged the Governor and the Michigan Treasury Department to act deliberately and be aware that any actions that would impair Detroit’s outstanding municipal securities obligations could have potentially significant, negative municipal market implications, and could increase the cost of borrowing for all Michigan municipalities.
