SB 844: Crimes: assaultive; harassing, interfering with, or injuring a letter carrier; prohibit, and provide penalties. Amends sec. 81d of 1931 PA 328 (MCL 750.81d).

This bill strengthens penalties for assaulting or interfering with letter carriers by adding them to the list of protected workers under Michigan's existing assault laws. It makes it a felony to harm, obstruct, or endanger anyone performing their duties, including postal workers, with increased prison terms and fines depending on the severity of the injury. The law applies to any individual who knows or should know the person is working, and penalties range from up to two years in prison for minor offenses to up to 20 years if the victim dies. The bill does not prevent additional charges for other crimes committed during the same incident and allows prison sentences to be served consecutively to other related convictions.

HB 5688: Sales tax: other; deduction or exclusion and audit of qualified delivery network sales; provide for. Amends sec. 2d of 1933 PA 167 (MCL 205.52d).

This bill modifies Michigan's sales tax rules for online marketplace facilitators, requiring them to collect and remit sales tax on all taxable sales made through their platforms regardless of whether the individual sellers have a physical presence in the state. It establishes that marketplace facilitators are responsible for auditing only their own facilitated sales unless sellers fail to provide necessary information, while also protecting facilitators from liability when sellers provide incorrect data or pay the tax directly. The legislation creates a special provision for delivery network companies, allowing them to deduct or exclude from their tax liability the sales tax they paid to marketplace sellers for qualified delivery services, such as those performed by couriers using personal vehicles or walking for distances under 75 miles.

HB 5577: Land use: other; coordinate systems; update. Amends secs. 1, 1a, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 & 9 of 1964 PA 9 (MCL 54.231 et seq.) & repeals secs. 2, 5 & 5a of 1964 PA 9 (MCL 54.232 et seq.).

HB 5577 updates Michigan's official land survey coordinate systems to align with current national standards. It formally names and defines the "Michigan plane coordinate system" (MCS 27 for 1927 coordinates and MCS 83 for 1983 coordinates), divides the state into north, central, and south zones based on specific counties, and sets requirements for documenting coordinates (including units, metadata, and positional tolerance estimates). The bill directly affects land surveyors, government agencies, and property recorders who use these systems to define land boundaries. It standardizes how coordinates must be reported in surveys and land records to ensure accuracy and consistency with national geodetic networks.

HB 4765: Elections: registration; proof of United States citizenship when registering to vote and identification when voting; require. Amends secs. 493a, 493b, 495, 509gg & 509ii of 1954 PA 116 (MCL 168.493a et seq.) & adds sec. 496c.

HB 4765 establishes automatic voter registration for Michigan residents when they apply for or update a driver's license, state ID card, or change their address, provided they submit U.S. citizenship documentation. It directly affects individuals applying for these state services who meet voting eligibility requirements. The bill requires the Secretary of State to add these applicants to the voter registry unless they return a preaddressed form declining registration. Applicants without citizenship proof may still register if they affirm U.S. citizenship and provide documentation during the application process. The law does not change voting ID requirements at polling places but modifies voter registration procedures through state ID applications.

HB 4720 prohibits Michigan jurisdictions from using electronic voting systems containing parts or equipment from foreign entities listed by the FCC under federal law, effective January 1, 2026. This directly affects election officials and voting equipment vendors who must ensure their systems comply with this ban. The bill amends existing requirements to maintain paper ballots, accessibility standards, audit trails, and other voting system safeguards under Michigan's election law (MCL 168.795). It does not change current voting procedures but adds a new security-related restriction on equipment sourcing.

HB 4816 creates a new individual income tax credit for Michigan residents who invest in certain Michigan businesses. It directly affects Michigan taxpayers who make qualifying investments in eligible local companies. The bill adds a specific provision to Michigan's tax code allowing these investors to claim a credit against their state income tax. This credit aims to incentivize personal investment in Michigan-based businesses through a direct tax benefit.

HB 5229: Occupations: real estate; waiver of services in limited service agreement; modify. Amends sec. 2512d of 1980 PA 299 (MCL 339.2512d). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5227'25, HB 5228'25

HB 5229 amends Michigan's real estate licensing law to allow sellers or lessors to waive specific brokerage services through a "limited service agreement." It directly affects real estate brokers and their clients (sellers/lessors) by permitting them to opt out of certain duties listed in the current law, such as marketing property (subsection 3a), handling offers (3b), and negotiation assistance (3c). The bill maintains core obligations like loyalty, confidentiality, and timely accounting but adds a formal waiver mechanism for select services. This change aims to provide flexibility for clients who want simplified brokerage arrangements while prohibiting brokers from misleading the public by advertising "for sale by owner" when represented. The bill is currently pending in committee and has not been enacted.

HB 5227: Occupations: real estate; real estate broker prohibited conduct; modify. Amends sec. 2512 of 1980 PA 299 (MCL 339.2512). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5228'25, HB 5229'25

HB 5227 amends Michigan's real estate broker regulations to strengthen rules about handling client funds and prevent conflicts of interest. It requires real estate brokers to deposit client money into separate trust accounts within 2 banking days (instead of their business accounts), mandates detailed record-keeping, and prohibits mixing client funds with broker money. The bill also bars brokers from sharing commissions with unlicensed individuals (except for commercially prepared name lists) and mandates written agency disclosures before negotiating offers for buyers. These changes directly affect licensed real estate brokers and salespersons conducting transactions in Michigan.

HB 5228: Occupations: real estate; disclosure regarding real estate agency relationship; modify. Amends sec. 2517 of 1980 PA 299 (MCL 339.2517). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5227'25, HB 5229'25

HB 5228 amends Michigan's real estate licensing law (MCL 339.2517) to modify disclosure requirements about real estate agency relationships. It directly affects real estate agents and their clients by changing how agents must explain their role and representation in transactions. The bill specifically revises Section 2517 of the Occupational Code to update the language or process for disclosing agency relationships. This is a procedural policy change focused on transparency in real estate transactions, not on new financial or operational requirements.

HB 5784: Housing: condominium; requirements for an association of co-owners to conduct a reserve study and establish a reserve funding plan; modify. Amends sec. 105 of 1978 PA 59 (MCL 559.205).

This bill requires condominium associations in Michigan to conduct regular reserve studies to plan for future repairs and replacements of common areas. It mandates that qualifying associations, which have an annual budget over $20,000 or more than 20 units, hire a qualified professional to perform these studies every five years and establish a corresponding funding plan. The bill also ensures that these studies and funding plans are available for owners to review and requires associations to notify residents annually about reserve fund balances and potential future special assessments.

This bill amends Michigan's Use Tax Act to provide ongoing tax exemptions for data center equipment used by qualified data centers and enterprise data centers. To maintain these exemptions, the state requires facilities to meet specific job creation thresholds and submit annual reports to the Michigan Strategic Fund regarding employment, investments, and compliance with green building standards. The legislation also establishes a formal certification process where the Michigan Strategic Fund reviews applications and issues certificates to facilities that meet the criteria for enterprise data centers.
