This bill aims to establish clear guidelines and penalties for commissioners representing Michigan at conventions under Article V of the U.S. Constitution. It defines key terms such as "Commission," "Commissioner," and "Convention," and stipulates that commissioners must not exceed their authorized scope of authority as outlined in the legislative resolution. If a commissioner acts beyond this authority, they can be charged with a felony, facing up to five years of imprisonment.

Additionally, the bill prohibits any individual from bribing, threatening, intimidating, or obstructing a commissioner in the performance of their official duties. Such actions are also classified as felonies, carrying the same potential penalty of up to five years in prison. The legislation seeks to ensure the integrity of the commissioner's role and protect them from external pressures that could compromise their responsibilities.
