LANSING, Mich.—The Michigan House of Representatives is expected to vote on July 21 on whether or not to repeal the 1945 law used by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to lock down the state in 2020 at the height of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic, according to state Rep. Jeff Yaroch (R).

“I support the bill because the 1945 Act is redundant, unconstitutional and because the repeal is very popular with the people, as evidenced by the success of the petition drive. My sense is there is strong support for the repeal in the House,” Yaroch told The Epoch Times.
