SR 130 Michigan Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A resolution calling on the United States Department of Justice to investigate the recent deaths at the Huron Valley Correctional Facility.

This Senate resolution asks the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate recent inmate deaths at Michigan's Huron Valley Correctional Facility. The bill highlights concerns about unsafe conditions, including toxic mold exposure and high staff vacancy rates, which lawmakers believe may have contributed to the fatalities of two inmates in May 2026. By requesting a federal inquiry, the resolution seeks to ensure that the deaths are thoroughly examined and that constitutional rights are protected within the state's correctional system. Copies of the request are to be sent to the Acting Attorney General for action.
