HB 4791: Health: other; menopause transition awareness program; establish. Amends 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.1101 - 333.25211) by adding sec. 9135.

HB 4791 would require Michigan's Department of Health and Human Services to create a public education program about menopause transitions.

It mandates the department to share this information with both the public and healthcare professionals, potentially via its website. This bill, currently in committee review, directly affects Michigan residents - particularly women navigating menopause - and healthcare providers who would receive updated educational resources.

HB 5162: Controlled substances: schedules; scheduling of certain controlled substances; modify. Amends sec. 7204 of 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.7204).

HB 5162 requires Michigan to automatically adopt federal changes to controlled substance schedules (such as adding, removing, or reclassifying substances) unless the state administrator holds a review meeting within 30 days. If the state decides not to follow the federal change, it must publish its reasoning within 30 days. This bill directly affects Michigan's drug enforcement and public health policies by streamlining alignment with federal law, reducing delays in updating state schedules. It applies to all controlled substances subject to federal scheduling changes, impacting state law enforcement, healthcare providers, and substance regulation. The bill does not alter specific schedules but establishes a process for future federal updates.

HR 258: A resolution calling on Congress to investigate all of the individuals implicated in the Epstein files and compel them to testify under oath.

This House resolution calls on Congress to investigate individuals linked to Jeffrey Epstein and require them to testify under oath. It directly affects high-profile figures across technology, finance, real estate, and government who have been implicated in Epstein's criminal network. The resolution asserts that current Department of Justice actions have failed to protect survivors or fully disclose information, citing concerns over redacted names and unredacted photos of victims. It seeks to use congressional authority to compel testimony from those who participated in or covered up Epstein's crimes. The measure was introduced in March 2026 and referred to the Committee on Government Operations.

This bill proposes to amend Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act to establish a regulatory framework for carbon sequestration activities. It directly affects businesses and entities engaged in carbon capture and storage by creating new legal requirements and oversight mechanisms under the state's environmental laws. The legislation adds a new subchapter to the existing statute to define standards, permitting processes, and compliance obligations for carbon sequestration projects. By integrating these provisions into the broader environmental protection framework, the bill aims to provide a structured approach to managing carbon storage operations within the state.

HB 5665: Environmental protection: air pollution; petroleum and carbon dioxide pipeline act; exclude carbon capture projects and sequestration projects and provide conditions for pipeline approval. Amends title & secs. 1, 3 & 11 of 1929 PA 16 (MCL 483.1 et. seq.) & adds secs. 13 & 15. TIE BAR WITH: HB 5664'26, HB 5666'26, HB 5667'26, HB 5668'26, HB 5669'26

This bill updates Michigan's existing pipeline regulations to include carbon dioxide transport while explicitly exempting carbon capture and sequestration projects from oversight. It requires companies building pipelines for oil, petroleum products, or carbon dioxide to obtain approval from the Michigan Public Service Commission, which will review applications for public safety, environmental stewardship, and market conditions. The legislation also clarifies that producers, refiners, and private pipeline operators without public interest involvement remain outside the commission's regulatory authority. By adding new sections to the state's pipeline act, the bill establishes a formal approval process that considers alternative routes and infrastructure options before granting permission for new pipeline construction.

It creates new categories of facilities (A through F) based on their type and emission status, and adds specific definitions for carbon dioxide capture, carbon dioxide streams, and environmental justice communities. The legislation clarifies what constitutes air pollution and air pollution control equipment, while also defining fee-subject air pollutants and emissions that may be subject to fees. These changes aim to provide clearer language for regulating air quality and carbon capture activities across different types of industrial and energy facilities in the state.

The bill also establishes new rules for transferring student records between schools, mandating written requests with specific details and requiring schools to confirm enrollment before sharing records. It includes a privacy safeguard prohibiting schools from disclosing student records to law enforcement except as permitted under federal law (FERPA). This affects parents/guardians enrolling students, school districts, and law enforcement agencies.
