AI Summary
This bill amends the Michigan Election Law to prohibit individuals employed to circulate petitions, including nominating, qualifying, and recall petitions, from being paid a fixed rate or amount for each signature collected or for each completed signature sheet. Instead, the bill requires these petition circulators to be paid an hourly wage. This aims to prevent the practice of paying petition circulators based on the number of signatures they collect, which could incentivize the collection of invalid or fraudulent signatures.
