HB 5522 Michigan House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Higher education: other; nonvoting members of this state’s delegation to the midwestern higher education commission; modify. Amends sec. 2 of 1990 PA 195 (MCL 390.1532).

This bill updates Michigan's rules for appointing representatives to the Midwestern Higher Education Commission, a regional group that coordinates higher education policies across several states. It clarifies that the state's voting delegation includes the governor, one senator, one state representative, and two at-large members appointed by the governor. Additionally, the legislation designates the state board of education and the department of lifelong education, advancement, and potential to serve as nonvoting members, allowing them to participate in discussions without casting formal votes. The law also establishes that any vacancies in these positions must be filled using the same appointment process as the original roles to ensure the delegation remains complete.
