HB4241 prohibits Michigan state and local governments from granting economic-development incentives or subsidies to foreign entities from designated "countries of concern." The bill amends Michigan's economic-development law to prevent public funds or tax incentives from being used to support businesses tied to those foreign governments or entities.

The Michigan State House of Representatives passed HB4241 on May 6, 2025 by a vote of 66 to 44. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because this bill takes a step toward preserving state sovereignty by preventing taxpayer resources from subsidizing foreign entities tied to hostile governments, such as Communist China. Allowing such entities to benefit from public incentives risks compromising national security, undermining sovereignty, and infringing on the rights of American citizens.
