Public employees and officers: other; legislative approval for governor to travel overseas; require. Amends 1846 RS 12 (MCL 10.2 - 15.39) by adding sec. 3.
HB 4310 requires the Michigan legislature to approve, via a joint vote, any overseas travel by the governor paid for with taxpayer funds. The bill mandates that such approval must include specific details: the travel dates, destination location, and purpose of the trip. This applies only to governor-funded international trips, not domestic travel or other expenses. The bill does not change existing travel rules but adds a legislative oversight step for overseas trips. It is currently in committee referral after introduction on March 27, 2025.
