The House Resolution proposes the establishment of the Select Committee on Protecting Michigan Employees and Small Businesses in response to significant challenges facing employees and small businesses in Michigan. The resolution emphasizes the urgent need for legislative action to safeguard paychecks and ensure the stability of the state's small business economy. The committee will consist of 15 members, with a majority from the House Republican party and a minority from the House Democratic party, all appointed by the Speaker of the House.

The primary focus of the Select Committee will be to evaluate and consider legislation related to Michigan's minimum wage, including provisions for tipped workers, as well as legislation concerning earned sick time.
