HB 5796: Counties: employees and officers; county-elected officials disclosing felony convictions; require. Amends 1846 RS 14 (MCL 45.318 - 45.324) by adding sec. 118a. TIE BAR WITH: HB 5795'26

This bill requires elected county officers in Michigan to update their public disclosure forms within three business days if they are convicted of a felony. The law defines a felony conviction as a court judgment regardless of whether sentencing has occurred or if an appeal is pending. The measure does not take effect unless it is passed together with a companion bill that would also require the county clerk to make these updated disclosures available to the public.

SB 901: State management: purchasing; public works projects; require that certain construction materials produced in the United States be procured for. Creates new act.

This bill requires state-funded infrastructure projects in Michigan to purchase cement, concrete, and steel that are produced in the United States. To qualify, at least 95% of the total cost of these materials must come from components manufactured domestically. State agencies can grant waivers if the materials are unavailable, would raise project costs by more than 25%, or if an emergency demands immediate procurement. The legislation also directs the state to update procurement policies to offer a bid preference for products made within Michigan and takes effect on January 1, 2030.

SB 902: Criminal procedure: probation; probation for certain criminal sexual conduct violations; prohibit. Amends sec. 1, ch. XI of 1927 PA 175 (MCL 771.1).

SB 902 modifies Michigan's criminal procedure laws by establishing a mandatory supervision fee for individuals placed on probation after a sentence is delayed. Specifically, the bill requires courts to order a fee of $30 per month, or $60 per month if electronic monitoring is used, for up to 12 months of delay. This fee is collected by the Department of Corrections and is intended to cover supervision costs while the defendant awaits final sentencing. The legislation applies to adults facing various felony and misdemeanor charges but excludes juveniles and allows courts to waive the fee for indigent defendants.

HR 285: A resolution calling on the United States Department of Justice to conduct a full investigation of any person, regardless of political affiliation, mentioned in the Epstein files.

This House resolution calls on the Department of Justice to investigate every individual named in the Epstein files, regardless of their political affiliation. The measure responds to the release of millions of documents and a previous statement by the Acting Attorney General that no further federal prosecutions would occur. It urges the government to distinguish between victims, active participants, and those merely mentioned to ensure accountability for all potential perpetrators. As a non-binding resolution, it does not create new laws but formally requests that the Justice Department take action on this specific matter.

SB 844: Crimes: assaultive; harassing, interfering with, or injuring a letter carrier; prohibit, and provide penalties. Amends sec. 81d of 1931 PA 328 (MCL 750.81d).

This bill strengthens penalties for assaulting or interfering with letter carriers by adding them to the list of protected workers under Michigan's existing assault laws. It makes it a felony to harm, obstruct, or endanger anyone performing their duties, including postal workers, with increased prison terms and fines depending on the severity of the injury. The law applies to any individual who knows or should know the person is working, and penalties range from up to two years in prison for minor offenses to up to 20 years if the victim dies. The bill does not prevent additional charges for other crimes committed during the same incident and allows prison sentences to be served consecutively to other related convictions.

For new enterprise data centers, the bill mandates that owners receive a certificate from the Michigan Strategic Fund confirming they plan to meet certain criteria within six years before they can claim the tax exemption.

It specifically targets public universities, defined as those receiving state school aid, by removing their tax-free status for facilities used solely to operate data centers. The legislation defines a data center as a building housing infrastructure for third-party commercial data processing.
