Reproductive health data privacy

Current understanding

Governor Whitmer issued Executive Directive 2026-4 instructing state departments and agencies to implement safeguards for individuals’ reproductive health data against outside investigations and commercial aggregation involving federal, commercial, and out-of-state entities. The finding establishes issuance of an agency directive, but does not specify implementation measures, exceptions, or whether protections extend to data held by private entities.
