Summary of House Resolution No. 325 (2025-2026), Michigan

Purpose

  • A resolution urging President Donald Trump, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and all parties to the settlement agreement creating the “Anti-Weaponization Fund” to rescind the agreement.
  • The resolution expresses opposition to use of taxpayer dollars for a fund that could support individuals convicted—and later pardoned—over violent actions related to the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Key provisions and changes

  • This is a non-binding resolution, not a bill that creates or funds a program. Its primary function is to publicly urge federal actors to withdraw the settlement agreement that established the “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”
  • The resolution references and criticizes:
    • The use of tax dollars in settling a lawsuit filed by President Trump (in his personal capacity), members of the Trump family, and the Trump Organization against the IRS and the U.S. Department of Treasury.
    • The potential allocation of funds to individuals associated with extremist groups (e.g., Oath Keepers, Proud Boys) who participated in the January 6 events.
  • The resolution emphasizes:
    • The expectation that Michigan taxpayers’ money be used responsibly, transparently, and for the public good.
    • A belief that public funds should not subsidize or legitimize individuals who engaged in political violence or attempted to overturn a lawful election result.

Who/what would be affected

  • While the resolution itself does not change federal policy or allocate funds, it targets and calls on:
    • The President (Trump) and federal agencies (IRS, Treasury) involved in the settlement agreement about the Anti-Weaponization Fund.

  • The document signals state-level concern about:

    • The propriety and ethics of the federal settlement and potential fund disbursements.
    • The alignment of such actions with public trust and the use of taxpayer dollars.

Procedural and timeline aspects

  • Introduced: May 21, 2026, by Representative Noah Arbit.
  • Referred to: Committee on Government Operations for consideration.
  • As a House Resolution, its effect is advisory and symbolic; it does not enact or fund any program and would not restrict federal action directly unless it influences state or public opinion.

Additional details

  • The resolution lists a broad set of co-sponsors, indicating cross-member support within the Michigan House.
  • It directs that copies be transmitted to:
    • President Donald Trump
    • Donald Trump Jr.
    • Eric Trump
    • The IRS Chief Executive Officer
    • The U.S. Treasury Secretary

Bottom line

  • HR 325 is a symbolic, non-binding request from Michigan’s House to rescind the federal settlement creating the “Anti-Weaponization Fund,” arguing that public funds should not be used to support individuals involved in or connected to the January 6 attacks. It reflects concerns about public money, accountability, and democratic legitimacy rather than establishing new state or federal policy.
