HB 4004 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Gaming: lottery; multistate lottery games; allow winner to remain anonymous. Amends sec. 25 of 1972 PA 239 (MCL 432.25).

HB 4004 allows Michigan lottery winners of prizes over $10,000 to keep their personal information private. The bill amends the lottery law to require the state lottery bureau to withhold winners' names, addresses, and other personal details from public disclosure without the winner's written consent. This applies to both regular Michigan lottery games and multistate lottery games, protecting winners' privacy after a significant win. The change ensures winners can choose anonymity, aligning with existing privacy standards for large prizes.
