Overview

HB 6069 (Michigan, 2025-2026) would amend the Michigan Strategic Fund Act to require new default and clawback protections for state-funded projects. Specifically, beginning April 1, 2027, written agreements governing grants, loans, or other assistance under the act would include provisions allowing for an event of default and clawback of funds if a recipient reports a new listing on a specified anti-offshoring registry during the term of the agreement. The bill is tied to HB 6070 and would take effect only if HB 6070 (or related Senate measure) becomes law.

Purpose and intent

Strengthen accountability for entities receiving state economic development funds.

Tie eligibility for ongoing or future state support to compliance with anti-offshoring reporting requirements.

Introduce post-award financial remedies (default and clawback) when a recipient appears on the anti-offshoring registry during the agreement term.

Key provisions

Sec. 15 (new section): Beginning April 1, 2027, any written agreement under the Michigan Strategic Fund Act that provides a loan, grant, funding, or other assistance for a project must include:

An event-of-default clause.
A clawback provision allowing the state to recover funds if a recipient reports a new listing on the registry described in section 7 of the anti-offshoring accountability act during the term of the agreement.

Enacting sections:

Effective date: The amendatory act becomes law 90 days after enactment.
Contingent effectiveness: The act’s provisions take effect only if HB 6070 (or the specified related bill) is enacted into law.

Affected parties and impacts

Recipients of funds under the Michigan Strategic Fund Act (including loans, grants, or other project-related assistance) becoming subject to new default and clawback rights.

Entities that relocate or operate call centers or other project components may be affected if they trigger the anti-offshoring registry.

State economic development program administration will impose new contractual language and enforcement mechanisms to recover funds if registry-listed disclosures occur.

Procedural and timeline aspects

Introduction and referral: Introduced June 10, 2026; referred to Committee on Economic Competitiveness.

Effective date: 90 days after enactment.

Conditional effectiveness: The bill’s operative provisions depend on enactment of HB 6070 (or the related bill) as part of the tie-bar arrangement.

Availability of written agreement requirements: Applies to agreements under the Michigan Strategic Fund Act beginning April 1, 2027, or as soon as the act takes effect if the timing aligns.

Additional notes

The bill is a tie-bar with HB 6070, meaning its enactment is contingent on passing that companion or related legislation.

The anti-offshoring framework referenced is described in a separate anti-offshoring accountability act (section 7 registry), which governs what constitutes a registry listing triggering the clawback event.
