2009 Senate Bill 293 ↩

House Roll Call 313: Passed

To give preference in awarding renaissance zone tax breaks to recipients who promise not to hire illegal aliens, to comply in good faith with the legal status verification requirements of federal law, and only to hire Michigan residents or people who plan to become residents, or contract with firms that promise the same unless the facility cannot be operated with just Michigan residents. This is "tie-barred" to House Bills 4085 and 4086, other bills in the "residents only" package which are favored by the House Democratic majority because they exempt union members from the restrictive provisions.
