Introduced
by
To allow for three years retroactive lawsuits against drug makers for drugs approved by the U.S. Food And Drug Administration (FDA) that were sold in Michigan since 1996. The bill is tie-barred to House Bill 4773, which would repeal a 1996 tort reform law under which such lawsuits were prohibited over FDA approved drugs.
Referred to the Committee on Commerce
Motion
by
To discharge the Committee on Commerce from further consideration of the bill. This bypasses the committee process and moves the bill directly to the House Floor, where it could be voted on at any time. However, this does not require the House leadership to call for a vote.
The motion passed 89 to 16 (details)
