A bill to terminate Chinese Communist Party aggression against the State of Michigan on all fronts, including economic, agricultural, biological, and national-security threats; to ban CCP-linked ownership and influence; to mandate divestment and reshoring; to impose enhanced penalties for fentanyl precursor trafficking, agro-terrorism, and biological threats; to establish a permanent countermeasures task force; and to provide for related matters.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
Section 1. Short Title.
This act shall be known and may be cited as the “Michigan Defense Against CCP Aggression and Agro-Bio Terrorism Act” or the “Michigan First CCP War Termination Act.”
Section 2. Legislative Findings.
The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is engaged in a multi-front, non-kinetic war against the United States and the State of Michigan through economic espionage, intellectual-property theft, fentanyl-precursor chemical warfare, influence operations, supply-chain domination, farmland and critical-infrastructure acquisitions, political infiltration, and potential agricultural and biological threats.
(b) Michigan’s manufacturing base, agriculture, Great Lakes ports, automotive industry, and research institutions make the State a prime target.
(c) CCP-linked ownership of farmland near critical infrastructure, ports, energy facilities, or military sites, and any CCP-linked involvement in biological research or agricultural supply chains, constitutes an unacceptable threat to food security, public health, and sovereignty.
(d) Appeasement, continued investment, and tolerance of CCP influence endanger Michigan jobs, technology, food security, and the lives of citizens.
(e) The State of Michigan shall treat the CCP as the strategic adversary it is and shall take the strongest lawful measures to decouple, defend, and deter.
(f) All actions under this act shall comply with the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution of the State of Michigan, and applicable federal law. Focus remains on foreign adversarial influence and threats, not on lawful residents or citizens.
Section 3. Definitions.
As used in this act:
(a) “CCP-linked” or “PRC-controlled” means any entity, individual, or proxy owned, controlled, directed, funded, or substantially influenced by the Chinese Communist Party, the government of the People’s Republic of China, the United Front Work Department, or any designated foreign terrorist organization or adversarial military-civil fusion entity.
(b) “Agro-terrorism” means the intentional introduction, threat of introduction, or material support for the introduction of a pathogen, toxin, pest, or other biological agent into Michigan’s agricultural system with the intent to cause economic harm, food-supply disruption, or public-health emergency.
(c) “Biological threat” or “bio-terrorism” means any act involving a biological agent, toxin, or delivery system that is intended to cause death, disease, or mass disruption and that is linked to a foreign adversary, including the CCP.
(d) “Critical infrastructure” includes energy facilities, ports, water systems, transportation hubs, military installations, semiconductor or advanced-manufacturing sites, and agricultural processing facilities of strategic importance.
(e) “Sensitive sector” means technology, agriculture, energy, rare-earth minerals, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, defense manufacturing, biotechnology, and research institutions.
Section 4. Complete Ban on CCP-Linked Investments and Ownership.
(1) No state pension fund, university endowment, public entity, or political subdivision shall invest in any CCP-linked company or entity.
(2) New acquisition of Michigan farmland, critical infrastructure, ports, manufacturing facilities, or property within 50 miles of any military base, energy facility, or major water infrastructure by any CCP national, PRC-controlled entity, or proxy is prohibited. Existing prohibited ownership shall be subject to forced divestiture within 24 months of the effective date of this act, with failure to divest resulting in civil forfeiture.
(3) The Department of Treasury, in coordination with the Attorney General, shall conduct an immediate statewide audit of all public holdings and sensitive-sector ownership and order mandatory divestment of all CCP-linked assets.
Section 5. Supply-Chain Reshoring and Economic Independence.
(1) The Michigan Economic Development Corporation and Department of Treasury shall establish aggressive tax credits, grants, and regulatory-relief packages for companies that relocate production of semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, automobiles, defense goods, advanced manufacturing, agricultural inputs, or biotechnology from the People’s Republic of China to Michigan.
(2) All state procurement shall prioritize “Buy Michigan / Buy American” and shall exclude CCP-linked vendors or components for critical infrastructure and sensitive sectors unless a documented national-security waiver is granted by the Governor and reported to the Legislature.
Section 6. Counter-Espionage, Influence Operations, and Campus Security.
(1) Every public university, research institution, and state-funded entity shall fully disclose all funding, partnerships, contracts, or affiliations with CCP entities, Confucius Institutes, United Front Work Department-linked groups, Thousand Talents Program participants, or any PRC military-civil fusion program. Non-compliant entities shall immediately lose all state funding.
(2) Confucius Institutes and any similar CCP propaganda or influence operations are permanently banned from public campuses and state facilities.
(3) Any individual or organization acting as an agent of the CCP shall register under an expanded state foreign-agent registration requirement and shall publicly disclose all activities, funding, and contacts. Failure to register is a felony.
(4) Academic freedom is protected; espionage, self-censorship on China-related topics induced by CCP pressure, and theft of intellectual property are not.
Section 7. Zero Tolerance for Fentanyl Precursor Chemical Warfare.
(1) Trafficking of fentanyl or its precursors that is linked to CCP-controlled chemical manufacturers or networks is classified as a domestic-terrorism-level offense under state law and shall carry enhanced penalties, including mandatory minimum terms of imprisonment not less than those for first-degree murder when death results.
(2) The Michigan State Police and port authorities shall increase screening of all shipments entering Michigan ports and borders for chemical precursors. Full cooperation with federal authorities is mandatory.
(3) The Attorney General shall pursue maximum civil and criminal remedies and shall seek federal tariffs and sanctions on CCP-linked chemical manufacturers.
Section 8. Agricultural Land Ban and Agro-Bio Terrorism Defense.
(1) No CCP national, PRC-controlled entity, or proxy may purchase, lease, or control Michigan agricultural land or any property used for food production, seed research, livestock, or agricultural processing. Existing holdings are subject to the forced-divestiture requirements of Section 4.
(2) Agro-terrorism and biological threats linked to a foreign adversary, including the CCP, are declared crimes of the highest order. Any person who knowingly introduces, attempts to introduce, or provides material support for the introduction of a pathogen, toxin, pest, or biological agent into Michigan’s agricultural or food system with intent to harm shall be guilty of a felony punishable by life imprisonment without parole when the act causes or is intended to cause mass economic damage, food-supply disruption, or loss of human life.
(3) Mandatory security upgrades and continuous monitoring are required for all agricultural research facilities, seed banks, and food-processing plants that have any historical or residual CCP-linked personnel, funding, or equipment.
(4) The Departments of Agriculture and Rural Development and State Police shall establish joint protocols for rapid detection, response, and attribution of any agro-biological incident and shall report quarterly to the Legislature and the public.
Section 9. Critical Infrastructure Defense.
Any infrastructure, system, or facility utilizing CCP-linked vendors, components, software, or personnel shall undergo mandatory security review and, where necessary, forced replacement with trusted domestic or allied sources. Non-compliance results in loss of state contracts, permits, and funding.
Section 10. Michigan CCP Countermeasures Task Force.
(1) There is created the permanent Michigan CCP Countermeasures Task Force composed of the Attorney General (chair), Director of the Michigan State Police, State Treasurer, Director of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, Director of the Michigan Economic Development Corporation, and such other agency heads as the Governor designates.
(2) The Task Force is granted subpoena authority, access to all relevant state records, and the power to refer matters for criminal prosecution or civil enforcement.
(3) The Task Force shall publish annual public reports detailing: reduction in CCP-linked investments and land ownership; number of companies reshored; precursor seizures and fentanyl-related outcomes; agro-biological threat incidents prevented or neutralized; dollars recovered or saved; and domestic manufacturing gains.
Section 11. Economic Warfare Response Fund.
Revenues from civil fines, forfeited assets, and any state share of related federal recoveries shall be deposited into a dedicated fund used exclusively for reshoring incentives, worker retraining in strategic industries, victim compensation for fentanyl and agro-biological harms, and public-awareness campaigns on CCP tactics.
Section 12. Allied Coordination and Public Awareness.
The Task Force shall coordinate with other states and federal authorities to maintain a united front. A sustained public-education campaign on CCP economic aggression, influence operations, intellectual-property theft, fentanyl deaths, and agro-biological risks shall be conducted.
Section 13. Severability and Construction.
If any provision of this act is held invalid, the remainder shall remain in full force and effect. This act shall be liberally construed to achieve the maximum lawful protection of Michigan’s sovereignty, economy, agriculture, and security against CCP aggression.
Section 14. Effective Date.
This act takes effect immediately upon enactment. All bans, disclosure requirements, and Task Force authorities are operative on the date of enactment. Forced divestiture timelines begin on the effective date.
Enacting Section.
This act is ordered to take immediate effect.
