Maddy summaryThis House resolution calls for an investigation into a February 2026 missile strike on a primary school in Iran that reportedly killed over 100 children. It urges the House and Senate Armed Services committees to examine how the attack occurred, focusing on potential intelligence errors and decision-making processes that may have violated international laws of war. The bill also demands the resignation of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, arguing that he bears responsibility for the actions of the Department of War. By requesting these specific actions, the resolution seeks to address alleged war crimes and prevent future incidents involving civilian casualties.

Maddy summaryThis bill designates April 2026 as Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month in Michigan to highlight the experiences of people affected by limb loss or limb difference. The resolution aims to raise public awareness about the approximately 5.6 million Americans living with limb loss and the 500,000 new cases that occur annually. It encourages education, support for families and caregivers, and recognition of veterans who have lost limbs while serving or after retirement. The measure does not create new laws or funding but serves as a symbolic declaration to promote understanding of the challenges and needs of this community.

Maddy summaryThis bill amends Michigan's Consumer Protection Act to prohibit merchants from charging consumers prices that are grossly in excess of what similar products or services cost elsewhere. It directly affects businesses and consumers by establishing clearer rules against predatory pricing practices. The key provision adds a new unfair practice definition that makes it unlawful to charge prices significantly higher than market rates for comparable goods or services. This change aims to protect consumers from price gouging while maintaining the existing framework of consumer protection laws.

Maddy summaryThis bill allows Michigan customers to install small, portable solar power systems on their property without needing approval from their electric provider or paying installation fees. It defines these systems as plug-in photovoltaic devices that produce up to 1,200 watts and connect through standard electrical outlets, while protecting providers from liability for any damage caused by customer installations. The law requires customers to notify their electric provider within 30 days of installation using a form developed by the state commission, which must include details like the system's capacity and address. Electric providers cannot require additional equipment or charge fees for these systems, and providers must not approve or reject their use. The bill amends Michigan's Clean and Renewable Energy Act to formalize these rules for small-scale solar generation.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits licensed concealed pistol carriers from bringing firearms into specific state buildings and certain public venues, including schools, hospitals, sports arenas, and places of worship. It also bans portable electro-muscular disruption devices in these same locations, with exceptions for parking areas and certain law enforcement personnel. The legislation applies to all licensed individuals except retired police officers, security contractors, private investigators, and other designated law enforcement roles who are permitted to carry weapons on these premises. Violations result in civil fines, license suspensions, or criminal penalties depending on whether it is a first, second, or subsequent offense.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits the manufacture, sale, or possession of bump stocks and multiburst trigger activators in Michigan. It amends the state penal code to explicitly classify these devices as illegal weapons alongside machine guns and silencers. The legislation defines bump stocks as devices that allow semiautomatic firearms to fire multiple rounds with a single trigger pull by using recoil energy, and multiburst trigger activators as devices that increase a firearm's rate of fire. Violations are classified as felonies punishable by up to five years in prison, a fine of up to $2,500, or both. The law includes exemptions for licensed federal firearms manufacturers and certain government contractors.

Maddy summaryThis bill amends Michigan state law to clarify that local governments are allowed to impose certain restrictions on firearms within their jurisdictions. It permits municipalities to regulate how employees carry guns at work, set rules for open carry in government buildings, and establish age-based supervision requirements for pneumatic guns. The legislation also allows local authorities to prohibit threatening displays of pneumatic guns and to ban open carry in their facilities, except for law enforcement officers. These provisions aim to give communities more flexibility in creating their own firearm safety policies while maintaining state-level oversight.

Maddy summaryThis bill prohibits individuals from carrying firearms in specific state buildings, including the Michigan State Capitol, the Anderson House Office Building, and the Binsfeld Senate Office Building, with exceptions for security personnel, peace officers, and licensed concealed pistol carriers serving as legislators. It also expands existing restrictions by banning firearms in polling places, early voting sites, and within 100 feet of ballot drop boxes for 40 days before an election, while allowing law enforcement and licensed carriers to carry in these areas. The legislation applies to various other locations such as financial institutions, churches, courts, theaters, sports arenas, day care centers, hospitals, and licensed liquor establishments, with similar exemptions for security staff, peace officers, and permit holders. Violations of these provisions are classified as misdemeanors punishable by up to 90 days in jail, a fine of up to $100, or both.
