The bill amends Section 520c of the Michigan Penal Code regarding criminal sexual conduct in the second degree. It specifies that a person is guilty of this offense if they engage in sexual contact with another person under certain circumstances, including if the victim is under 13 years of age or between 13 and 16 years old and the actor is in a position of authority or related to the victim. The bill also expands the definitions of those in positions of authority to include various educational and childcare roles, and it clarifies the definitions of terms related to child care organizations and foster homes.

Additionally, the bill modifies the penalties for criminal sexual conduct in the second degree, establishing that it is a felony punishable by imprisonment for life or any term of years, but not less than 10 years. It also mandates lifetime electronic monitoring for individuals 17 years or older who commit sexual contact against a victim under 13 years of age. The bill includes several insertions to clarify language and definitions, as well as deletions to streamline the text. The changes are set to take effect 90 days after the bill is enacted into law.
