HB 6090 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Elections: candidates; dual citizenship status; require candidates to disclose. Amends sec. 558 of 1954 PA 116 (MCL 168.558).

This bill requires political candidates in Michigan to submit an affidavit of identity that explicitly discloses if they hold dual citizenship with any other country. The affidavit must list the name of each foreign country, how the candidate obtained that citizenship, and whether their status is active or inactive. Candidates who fail to provide this information or include false statements face disqualification from the ballot and potential criminal penalties for perjury. Additionally, the bill mandates that the Secretary of State post the names of candidates with dual citizenship on the state website within two business days of receiving the affidavit.
