163711-2, 163744-5 & 163747-8, LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF MI V SECRETARY OF STATE

The plaintiffs filed suit in the Court of Claims, challenging the
constitutionality of several provisions of 2018 PA 608, which changed the
procedures for citizen-circulated petitions. The challenged provisions include
the requirement that no more than 15% of the petition signatures could come from
any one congressional district, the requirement that the petitions include
checkboxes to indicate whether the petition circulator was a paid or volunteer
signature gatherer, and that paid signature gatherers must sign an affidavit
acknowledging their paid status before they could circulate a petition.  The
Supreme Court issued its majority and several partial concurring-partial
dissenting opinions on January 24, 2022, without hearing arguments in the case.
