HB 6222: Consumer protection: other; cryptocurrency exchange kiosk regulation act; create. Creates new act. TIE BAR WITH: HB 6223'26

This Michigan bill establishes the Cryptocurrency Exchange Kiosk Regulation Act to oversee physical terminals where users can swap government currency for digital assets. It directly affects businesses operating these kiosks by mandating that they be located in secure, staffed areas and restricting daily transactions to a maximum of $500 per user. The legislation also requires new users to wait at least 24 hours before completing a transaction, mandates clear warnings about fraud risks and transaction irreversibility, and requires operators to provide detailed receipts and maintain transaction records. To enforce these rules, the state attorney general is empowered to investigate violations and impose civil fines of up to $10,000 for single infractions or $25,000 for repeated offenses. Finally, the bill will only take effect if a companion bill, HB 6223, is also enacted into law.

HB 6157: Civil rights: public records; regulation of disclosure of certain information; provide for. Creates new act.

This bill, known as the Shielding Information for Lawful and Ethical Disclosure Act, prevents Michigan government agencies from sharing large amounts of personal data with federal immigration officials without specific authorization. It defines "bulk disclosure" as transferring data on multiple people without reviewing each case individually and allows such sharing only if a court order exists, the transfer serves a specific law enforcement purpose, or it is immediately necessary to protect health and safety. The law applies to all state, county, and municipal departments and officers, while giving the state attorney general the power to seek court orders to stop illegal data sharing.

HB 6187: Financial institutions: mortgage brokers and lenders; consolidation of certain licensing statutes related to residential mortgages; make conforming changes in the identity theft protection act. Amends sec. 3 of 2004 PA 452 (MCL 445.63). TIE BAR WITH: HB 6177'26

HB 6187 amends Michigan's Identity Theft Protection Act to update and clarify the definitions of key terms used throughout the law. The bill specifically revises how the statute defines "financial institutions" to ensure consistency with other state licensing laws and explicitly includes mortgage brokers and lenders under its protections. Additionally, it clarifies what constitutes a "security breach" by specifying that accidental access by employees acting in good faith does not count as a breach, and it expands the definition of "child or spousal support" to include various expenses like medical care and education. These changes aim to provide clearer guidance for businesses and individuals regarding data privacy and identity theft reporting requirements.
