This resolution proposes the establishment of a select committee within the Michigan House of Representatives to investigate the Interlochen Center for the Arts and its connections to convicted sex offenders Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The resolution highlights the importance of transparency in state funding and the need to ensure that public funds are not misused. It references troubling allegations, including Epstein's significant financial contributions to Interlochen and claims that the center may have been a venue for the grooming and abuse of minors. The resolution emphasizes the responsibility of the Legislature to protect public health and welfare, particularly concerning the safety of children.

The select committee will consist of six members, with equal representation from both the Republican and Democratic caucuses, and will have the authority to subpoena records and witnesses as part of its investigation. The committee is tasked with examining the extent of Interlochen's awareness of the allegations, its response to them, and how it plans to safeguard children from potential sexual predators in the future. Ultimately, the committee will report its findings and recommendations to the House of Representatives, which may lead to further legislative action.
