Maddy summaryHB 4108 amends Michigan's tort law to grant legal immunity to individuals who provide emergency bleeding control during medical crises. It directly protects ordinary citizens (not just professionals) who act in good faith to stop severe bleeding, such as at accident scenes or public events. The key provision shields these helpers from lawsuits for unintentional harm caused while applying bleeding control techniques, like using tourniquets or pressure dressings. This change applies specifically to bleeding control efforts during emergencies, not general emergency assistance.

Maddy summaryHB 4937 creates a new "backup shooter" license for bear hunting in Michigan, allowing a secondary hunter to participate if the primary hunter is unable to hunt. This directly affects bear hunters who hunt in groups or partnerships, providing flexibility when the main hunter cannot participate. The bill amends existing law to establish this license type, specifying eligibility and usage rules for backup shooters during bear hunting seasons. The change updates hunting regulations to accommodate group hunting scenarios without requiring a separate license for each participant.

Maddy summaryHB 4926 amends Michigan's health licensing law to create a new process for certain licensed health professionals to have disciplinary records vacated. It adds Section 16211a to the licensing code, establishing specific criteria and procedures for licensees who had past disciplinary actions to petition to clear those records after meeting defined conditions. This directly affects licensed nurses, pharmacists, and other health registrants who faced disciplinary actions but have since demonstrated rehabilitation and compliance. The bill provides a structured, statutory pathway for these individuals to seek record clearance, moving beyond previous administrative discretion.

Maddy summaryHB 4483 requires Michigan concealed pistol license holders to have a QR code printed on their license. This QR code links directly to a reciprocity website maintained by the Michigan Attorney General, which shows which states recognize Michigan licenses. The bill amends existing law to add this QR code as a standard feature on all concealed pistol licenses issued under Michigan's licensing system. It affects all current and future concealed carry license holders by providing a quick digital reference for out-of-state reciprocity.

Maddy summaryHB 4482 requires Michigan's Department of Attorney General to update a website every 60 days showing which states recognize Michigan concealed pistol license holders' permits. This directly affects Michigan residents who hold concealed carry licenses and wish to carry firearms in other states. The bill adds a new provision (Section 5q) to existing law, mandating regular website updates to display current reciprocity agreements. It does not change licensing requirements or permit holders' rights, only ensuring accurate, up-to-date information is publicly available. The bill is procedural, focusing solely on information transparency for license holders.

Maddy summaryHB 4481 requires Michigan's Attorney General to create and maintain a website listing states that recognize Michigan concealed pistol licenses and detailing each state's specific rules for out-of-state license holders. This website will help Michigan license holders understand where they can legally carry concealed firearms and what restrictions apply when traveling. The bill directly affects Michigan residents with concealed carry permits who travel to other states. It is a procedural measure focused on providing clear, accessible information to license holders, not changing gun laws or restrictions.

Maddy summaryHB 4893 revises the required annual continuing education hours for licensed accountants in Michigan. It amends specific sections of Michigan's 1980 accounting law (MCL 339.725 & 339.727a) to update the number of instructional hours accountants must complete each year. The bill directly affects all currently licensed accountants in the state who must meet these education requirements to maintain their licenses. The legislation passed with strong bipartisan support and took immediate effect after approval.

Maddy summaryHB 5092 modifies Michigan's breeding license requirements for large carnivores, requiring businesses to maintain a valid federal animal exhibition license (Class C) in good standing for five years. It applies specifically to organizations that display large carnivores to the public for education or exhibition purposes, not to general pet owners or breeders. The bill prohibits direct public contact with these animals and restricts sales only to other qualified licensees meeting the same requirements. These changes took immediate effect upon the Governor's approval on November 18, 2025.

Maddy summaryThis resolution declares November 2025 as Adoption Month in Michigan to recognize adoptive families and the children they welcome. It is a symbolic gesture with no legal effect or funding changes, acknowledging the work of adoptive parents and the experiences of adopted children. The resolution cites adoption statistics from Michigan (including 1,610 foster care adoptions in 2023) but does not alter any laws or programs. It serves solely to honor adoption as part of Michigan's community values.

Maddy summaryThis is a ceremonial resolution (not a law), declaring November 15, 2025, as "Hunting Heritage Day" in Michigan. It recognizes hunting's cultural significance, economic impact (supporting 135,000 jobs and contributing $8.9 billion annually), and role in wildlife management and community programs like Hunters Feeding Michigan. The resolution does not create new laws or affect regulations; it solely serves to honor hunting traditions and its contributions to Michigan. It was introduced and adopted by the Michigan House of Representatives.
