Additional items of note:
Article 1 Section 7
§ 7 Military power subordinate to civil power.
Sec. 7.
The military shall in all cases and at all times be in strict subordination to the civil power.
Article III Section 7
§ 7 Common law and statutes, continuance.
Sec. 7.
The common law and the statute laws now in force, not repugnant to this constitution, shall remain in force until they expire by their own limitations, or are changed, amended or repealed.
Article V Executive Branch
Did not find any reference within the Article V or elsewhere in the Michigan State Constitution where an emergency decree suspends the rights of citizens under Article I or the US Constitution.
If the citizens of Michigan choose to peacefully assemble for worship on Easter Sunday, that in no way violates the state constitution or be deemed an act of insurrection. Denying citizens their gauranteed rights under Article I would be a repugnant law.
