Bill overview
This bill prohibits state agencies from awarding contracts for construction, repair, remodeling, or demolition unless the contractor possesses a ‘fair paycheck workplace certificate.’ It also strengthens requirements for competitive bidding and emphasizes the use of Michigan-based firms and biobased products in state procurement. The bill includes provisions for giving preference to qualified disabled veterans in contract awards and establishing goals for awarding contracts to veteran-owned businesses, while also exempting certain records from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act.
