Governor signs multiple House bills into law; clerk reports new bills and Senate transmission
Summary
Clerk read messages from the governor that several enrolled House bills were approved and signed on Oct. 7, becoming Public Acts; the clerk also reported newly reproduced House bills and the receipt of Senate Bill 370.
The clerk told the Michigan House on the floor that the governor had approved and signed several enrolled House bills on Oct. 7, recording them as Public Acts. The message listed House Bill 4180 as Public Act 17, HB 4181 as Public Act 18, HB 4182 as Public Act 19, HB 4183 as Public Act 20, HB 4392 as Public Act 21, HB 4706 as Public Act 22, HB 4951 as Public Act 23, HB 4961 as Public Act 24, and HB 4968 as Public Act 25.
Why it matters: The clerk—s reading puts the listed measures into official effect as recorded by the governor—s office and provides the formal public record that these bills have been enrolled and signed. The items range across multiple subject areas (not detailed in the transcript); their conversion to Public Acts means they are now codified as law per the messages read on the House floor.
Details: Earlier in the session the clerk also reported that House bills 5094 through 5096 had been reproduced and made available electronically and that the House had received Senate Bill 370, described in the reading as a bill to create a TRICARE premium reimbursement program. The clerk read the governor—s transmitted timestamps for the signed bills, showing they were processed on Oct. 7 between 12:04 p.m. and 12:20 p.m.
What—s next: The clerk—s announcements constitute the formal record of enactment and receipt; the session did not take further legislative action on these measures before adjourning for lack of a quorum.
