The Tourism and Outdoor Recreation Committee, previously known as the Tourism Committee, is a former standing committee of the Michigan House of Representatives.

Function

The rules of the Senate and House do not describe the jurisdiction of the individual standing committees except that all Senate bills involving an appropriation must be referred either directly to the appropriations committee or to an appropriate standing committee and then to the appropriations committee. Traditionally, the assignment of bills follows topical lines.
