Statewide Ballot Proposal 2020: Search Warrants for Electronic Communications
DOWNLOADSeptember 18, 2020 - Eric Walcott
The proposal would amend Article I, Section 11 of the Michigan Constitution to specify that electronic data and communications would be secure from unreasonable searches and seizures and that a warrant would be required to gain access to those materials.
A “yes” vote supports this constitutional amendment to require a search warrant to access a person’s electronic data and communications.
A “no” vote opposes this constitutional amendment to require a search warrant to access a person’s electronic data and communications.
A video presentation on Proposal 20-1 is available on the MSU Extension Facebook page.
