A bill to amend 1996 IL 1, entitled “Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act,” by amending section 7c (MCL 432.207c), as amended by 2019 PA 158.
House Bills 5009–5028 form a comprehensive Michigan legislative package aimed at combating human trafficking, strengthening victim protections, and modernizing criminal, juvenile, and public health statutes. The bills expand expungement and affirmative defense rights for trafficking survivors, update terminology to replace “prostitution” with “commercial sexual activity,” broaden DNA collection and child protection measures, and enhance public awareness, oversight, and enforcement mechanisms across multiple state codes. Together, they create a unified framework to modernize justice procedures, protect vulnerable populations, and align Michigan law with contemporary trafficking prevention and rehabilitation standards.
