Civil rights: general discrimination; gender identity or expression; remove from categories protected under Elliott-Larsen civil rights act. Amends title & secs. 102, 103, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 209, 302, 302a, 402, 502, 504, 505 & 506 of 1976 PA 453 (MCL 37.2102 et seq.).

HB 4777 proposes to remove "gender identity or expression" from the list of protected characteristics under Michigan's Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act. The bill would amend specific sections of the law (including Sections 102, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, and others) that currently prohibit discrimination based on gender identity or expression in employment, housing, public accommodations, and other areas. If enacted, this change would directly affect individuals who currently receive legal protections against discrimination based on gender identity or expression in Michigan. The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, having been introduced on August 20, 2025.
