HB 5639: State agencies (existing): treasury; online tariff calculator; provide for. Amends 1941 PA 122 (MCL 205.1 - 205.31) by adding sec. 5a.

HB 5639 requires Michigan's Department of Treasury to create an online tariff calculator on its website within 90 days of the law taking effect. The tool will let Michigan residents estimate how tariffs imposed by the U.S. government (after January 20, 2025) or foreign governments (after January 20, 2025) affect their personal finances by inputting zip code, household income, and spending habits. The bill defines "tariffs" as import duties levied on or after January 20, 2025, and focuses on providing individuals with a clear way to understand potential financial impacts. This is a procedural requirement for the state treasury, not a change to tax rates or policies.

HB 5635: Health: immunizations; promulgation of certain rules that are more stringent than the requirements for claiming exemption from immunizations; prohibit. Amends sec. 1177 of 1976 PA 451 (MCL 380.1177). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5634'26

HB 5635 amends Michigan's School Code (MCL 380.1177) to prevent schools or health departments from requiring stricter exemption documentation than state law allows for student immunizations. It directly affects students entering school for the first time or in grade 7, and their families seeking exemptions based on religious beliefs or other objections. The bill ensures schools can only accept the three standard exemption options: a physician's statement, a parent's religious exemption, or a statement showing the child is in process of compliance. It does not change existing immunization requirements but prohibits additional barriers to claiming exemptions beyond those specified in state law.

HB 5617 allocates $363,570,600 for operations at all 26 Michigan community colleges for the 2026-2027 fiscal year. It specifies exact funding amounts for each college (e.g., $21,337,300 for Grand Rapids Community College) and includes small supplemental amounts for North American Indian tuition waivers. The bill does not include performance-based funding, with all operational funds coming from the state school aid fund. This is a routine appropriations bill that directly affects community colleges by setting their state funding levels for the upcoming fiscal year.

HB 5590: Health facilities: other; licensure of freestanding hyperbaric oxygen therapy facilities; provide for. Amends 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.1101 - 333.25211) by adding secs. 21211, 21213, 21215, 21217, 21219, 21221, 21223, 21227 & 21231 to pt. 212. TIE BAR WITH: HB 5591'26, HB 5592'26, HB 5593'26

HB 5590 requires freestanding hyperbaric oxygen therapy facilities (which use pressurized oxygen chambers for medical treatment) to obtain state licensure. It directly affects facility owners, operators, medical directors, and safety coordinators by mandating specific qualifications, safety protocols (like NFPA 99 compliance), and accreditation standards. Facilities must publicly display licenses, accreditation, FDA-approved treatment indications, and safety rules, and provide patients with written information about risks, benefits, and insurance coverage limitations. The bill also requires facilities to document compliance with safety standards and patient consent forms detailing FDA-approved uses.

HB 5611 is a funding bill that authorizes $X million in state appropriations for the Department of Lifelong Education, Advancement, and Potential for the 2026-2027 fiscal year (ending September 30, 2027). It directly affects the department by providing the budget needed to operate its programs and services during that period. The bill’s key mechanism is establishing the specific funding levels and rules for how those state funds may be spent.

HB 5595: Public utilities: public service commission; moratorium on approvals by the Michigan public service commission of any new enterprise data centers; provide for. Amends 1939 PA 3 (MCL 460.1 - 460.11) by adding sec. 10ii.

HB 5595 imposes a moratorium on Michigan's Public Service Commission approving new energy contracts for data centers. It prohibits the commission from approving any contract, tariff, discount, or rate between electric utilities and "qualified data centers" (defined as facilities housing equipment for centralized data storage and processing) from its effective date until April 1, 2027. This directly affects electric utilities and developers planning new large-scale data center projects in Michigan. The bill adds Section 10ii to the state's utility law, halting regulatory approvals for these energy agreements during the specified moratorium period.

HB 5593: Health facilities: other; hyperbaric oxygen inspection fund; create. Amends 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.1101 - 333.25211) by adding section 21224 to pt. 212. TIE BAR WITH: HB 5590'26, HB 5591'26, HB 5592'26

HB 5593 creates a dedicated "hyperbaric oxygen therapy inspection fund" in the state treasury to cover costs for inspecting freestanding specialized oxygen therapy facilities. The fund is financed solely by licensing fees paid by these facilities, and the state Department of Health administers it to ensure inspections occur. Money from the fund can only be used for inspecting such facilities under the Public Health Code, with no other purposes allowed. This bill directly affects facility operators (through fees) and state health inspectors (through funding), with no broader policy changes beyond this specific inspection mechanism.

HB 5597: Construction: inspectors; third-party building inspections; allow. Amends secs. 12 & 13 of 1972 PA 230 (MCL 125.1512 & 125.1513) & adds sec. 12a.

HB 5597 allows building owners or their agents to hire third-party inspection companies to perform required building inspections instead of relying solely on government agency inspections. Third-party inspectors must be registered under Michigan's skilled trades regulations, and their reports must include compliance status, necessary corrections, conflicts of interest, and the inspector's credentials. The enforcing agency may issue a certificate of occupancy based on a satisfactory third-party report, which must be submitted to both the owner and the agency. This change directly affects building owners, third-party inspection companies, and local building enforcement agencies.
