Litkouhi exposed the plan in an October 30 op-ed in the Detroit News, revealing that school boards in Oakland County, Michigan were seeking to place an "Enhancement Millage" on the ballot as soon as August of 2026. The Board of Education censured her and removed her from all committees on Nov. 10 in apparent retaliation for the op-ed, according to The Midwesterner. "I want to speak directly to the board about Trustee Litkouhi. What Carol Beth Litkouhi did took courage, what I'm not seeing out of this board here today," James said when confronting the board. "School officials briefed you behind closed doors, handed you a message to sell a tax hike to voters, and told you to stay quiet."
