Bill overview
This bill, the "Economic Development Transparency Act", restricts public officials and elected officials in Michigan from signing nondisclosure agreements related to economic development projects. These agreements often keep details about projects, like job creation numbers and investment amounts, confidential. The bill aims to increase transparency by prohibiting the use of public funds in these agreements and making any violating agreements unenforceable.
