A controversial bill that would give legislative chambers power to intervene in any Michigan court case passed the House over protests from Democrats, who consider the legislation a breach of the separation of powers and an attempt to undermine incoming Attorney General Dana Nessel.

House members voted 58-50 to approve House Bill 6553, with House Democrats and five Republicans voting against the legislation.

If passed, House Bill 6553 would authorize both houses of the Legislature “to intervene in any action commenced in any court of this state whenever the Legislature or a house of the Legislature deems such intervention necessary in order to protect any right or interest of this state, or of that body.”

Currently, the legislature can request to intervene at the discretion of the judge on a case-by-case basis. HB 6553 would give the legislature a standing right to intervene in cases.

The bill was introduced Nov. 29 by Rep. Rob VerHeulen, R-Walker, and was fast-tracked through the state House during the legislature’s lame duck session. The House Government Operations Committee abruptly cleared the bill for a floor vote Tuesday after several interruptions from protesters, one of whom called the bill “un-American.”
