HB 5741 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Weapons: concealed; weapon-free zones; include all buildings owned or leased by this state. Amends sec. 5o of 1927 PA 372 (MCL 28.425o).

This bill expands Michigan's existing weapon-free zone laws to include all state-owned or leased buildings, with the exception of state-run shooting ranges. It directly affects individuals licensed to carry concealed firearms or exempt from licensing requirements by prohibiting them from carrying weapons in these new state facilities. The amendment clarifies that "premises" excludes parking areas and maintains existing exemptions for law enforcement, security personnel, judges, and other licensed professionals who are employed by or contracted to work at these locations. Violations of the prohibition could result in fines and suspension or revocation of a concealed carry license.
