The MEA teachers union, private prep schools and colleges, the businesses of @JohnJamesMI and @SenMikeShirkey and the @detroitzoo, @newhollandbrew, @BellsBrewery and @KewadinCasinos were among the recipients of #PPP loans in Michigan.

#PPPloans data is a little messy: @HonigmanLaw says it returned its $5M-$10M loan before the safe harbor deadline in mid-May but got on @SBAgov's list.

@855mikewins returned its $2M PPP loan before safe harbor deadline and that law firm wasn't listed.

My colleague @nickrmanes reported in May on personal injury attorney Mike Morse returning his $2M #PPP loan, saying he could "weather this storm" without government assistance.

And for what it's worth in metro Detroit's personal injury lawyer advertising wars, attorney Geoffrey Fieger's law firm (@FiegerLaw) and The Sam Bernstein Law Firm (@CallSam) each got #PPPloans in the range of $1M to $2M.

Goodman Acker borrowed between $350,000 and $1M.
