SB 801 Michigan Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Criminal procedure: search and seizure; protections against unlawful search and seizure; provide for. Amends sec. 15d, ch. IV of 1927 PA 175 (MCL 765.15d) & adds sec. 1h to ch. IV.

SB 801 prohibits law enforcement officers from stopping, detaining, or arresting individuals based solely on personal characteristics like race, ethnicity, language, religious affiliation, or perceived sexual orientation. It also bans officers from entering a dwelling using a federal administrative warrant. The bill amends existing law to clarify when federal officers may enforce state law (requiring state warrants or joint investigations) and specifies that such enforcement must comply with the new restrictions. These provisions directly affect all Michigan law enforcement officers (state and federal) and individuals subject to stops or searches under the bill's rules.
