Why this matters
Michigan is building out a regulatory-plus-criminal regime around human milk: alongside donor-milk Medicaid coverage and breast milk bank oversight, the state is now proposing criminal sentencing exposure for those who provide adulterated or raw human milk for consumption. For the health and benefits landscape, this shifts human milk from a purely public-health/insurance-coverage question toward an enforcement matter, with implications for informal milk-sharing networks and unlicensed suppliers.
