Michigan Court Strengthens Consumer Protections on Insulin | Detroit News

Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

Michigan’s Supreme Court just handed down a landmark ruling that revives the state’s Consumer Protection Act, giving regulators new power to crack down on predatory pricing—especially for life-saving insulin. After Attorney General Dana Nessel launched an investigation into skyrocketing insulin costs affecting over a million Michiganders, the court reversed prior decisions that had weakened the law. With the FDA approving drugs but leaving pricing unregulated, this win restores critical consumer safeguards and paves the way for stronger legislation already moving through the legislature. It’s a major step toward holding pharmaceutical companies accountable—and protecting people from being priced out of essentials.
