How Abraham Aiyash plans to lower costs if he's elected to the state Senate  

Partisanship isn't just a Washington problem. This year, Michigan's Legislature has been one of the slowest in recent memory as only a few bills passed since January. This is happening as costs keep climbing and families keep stretching. Life is getting really expensive and people want their leaders to take action.

With state Senator Erika Geiss, who is overseeing parts of Detroit and Downriver, unable to run for re-election, two Democrats are now vying to fix the problem of rising costs. One of them is former state House representative Abraham Aiyash. He spoke about his campaign and his plans with The Metro's Robyn Vincent.

Editor's note: this conversation discussed the possibility of data centers recycling water. Water sprayed or circulated in evaporative cooling systems can be recycled at data centers. But the recycling process requires significant on-site treatment to manage high concentrations of salts and other contaminants.
