Why we checked itSpecific figure about the number of Michigan residents using education savings plans that Rogers claims credit for creating — verifiable against enrollment data
What we foundThe figure of ~400,000 is approximately correct only when all three Michigan 529 plan types are combined, but the largest plan (MESP) alone has roughly 340,000 accounts as of 2026, making the claim an overcount if referring to MESP specifically, and only marginally supportable in aggregate.
