Abstract
(HB6076 · 103rd Legislature) Health facilities: other; licensure of freestanding abortion clinics; require. Amends secs. 20104, 20106 & 20161 of 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.20104 et seq.) & adds pt. 207A & sec. 22224d. Latest action (2026-06-16): Bill Electronically Reproduced 06/11/2026
Why this matters
Post-Prop 3, Michigan’s reproductive-rights terrain is being shaped less by outright bans than by regulatory mechanisms like licensure, inspection, and facility standards. A clinic-specific licensure requirement would create a new state chokepoint over where and how abortions can be provided, making HB6076 a bellwether for how far facility regulation can go under the constitutional right recognized by Prop 3.
