The bill establishes that if the federal executive branch suspends the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus, neither the state of Michigan nor any local government within the state is permitted to allocate or spend state or local funds in a manner that contravenes section 12 of article I of the Michigan Constitution of 1963. This provision aims to protect the rights guaranteed under the state constitution in the event of a federal suspension of habeas corpus.

The new legal language inserted into the bill emphasizes the prohibition on the appropriation and expenditure of funds in violation of state constitutional rights during such federal actions. This measure reinforces the state's commitment to uphold individual liberties even in the face of federal decisions that may undermine them.
