HB 4833: Courts: district court; Oakland County district court seats; modify. Amends sec. 8123 of 1961 PA 236 (MCL 600.8123).

HB 4833 modifies the number of judges for several Oakland County district courts in Michigan. It reduces the number of judges in the 48th district (Birmingham, Bloomfield Hills area) from 3 to 2, and in the 50th district (Pontiac) from 4 to 3, effective when a vacancy occurs or an incumbent does not seek re-election. The bill applies directly to residents of these specific communities by changing court staffing levels under defined conditions. These changes are administrative adjustments to court structure, not new policies affecting broader public services.

HB 5139: Use tax: definitions; definition of marketplace facilitators; expand. Amends secs. 5 & 5c of 1937 PA 94 (MCL 205.95 & 205.95c). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5138'25, HB 5140'25

HB 5139 amends Michigan's Use Tax Act to require online platforms (called "marketplace facilitators") to collect and remit sales tax on all taxable sales made through their platforms to Michigan residents, regardless of whether the individual seller has a physical presence in the state. This directly affects large online marketplaces like Amazon or Airbnb, as well as small businesses selling via these platforms. The bill establishes that facilitators - not just the sellers - are legally responsible for tax collection, while providing relief for sellers who use compliant platforms (by filing a simple annual attestation). The key change shifts tax collection responsibility from sellers to platforms, simplifying compliance for small sellers but increasing accountability for digital marketplaces.

HB 5153: Civil procedure: foreclosure; distribution of proceeds from mortgage foreclosure auctions; modify. Amends secs. 3240 & 3252 of 1961 PA 236 (MCL 600.3240 & 600.3252). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5152'25

HB 5153 clarifies the process for homeowners to buy back their property after a foreclosure auction by specifying exactly what costs must be paid to redeem it. The bill requires homeowners to cover mortgage interest, sheriff fees, property taxes, insurance premiums, and association dues (if paid by the buyer) to reclaim their home, with interest applied from the date of payment. It also allows certain county registers of deeds (in larger counties) to calculate the total redemption amount upon request, charging a $50 fee for this service. This directly affects homeowners facing foreclosure who seek to regain ownership before the sale becomes final.

HB 5152: Civil procedure: foreclosure; distribution of proceeds from mortgage foreclosure auctions; modify. Amends sec. 3208 of 1961 PA 236 (MCL 600.3208) & adds secs. 3214 & 3222. TIE BAR WITH: HB 5153'25

HB 5152 modifies Michigan's foreclosure process by requiring sellers to provide a specific "notice of rights" when selling a home after a foreclosure notice is filed but before the sale auction. This notice must inform sellers they are waiving three key rights: the right to reclaim the property by paying off the mortgage during the redemption period, the right to remain in the home during that period, and the right to receive any surplus funds if the home sells for more than the mortgage balance. The bill also mandates that if a foreclosure sale is canceled, the canceling party must record this notice with the county register of deeds within 30 days. These changes directly affect homeowners facing foreclosure who sell their property before the auction and buyers purchasing such properties.

HB 6151: Vehicles: automobiles; noise limitations; modify. Amends secs. 707d, 732 & 907 of 1949 PA 300 (MCL 257.707d et seq.) TIE BAR WITH: HB 6152'26

HB 6151 modifies Michigan's vehicle code to adjust how noise violations are classified and penalized, directly affecting vehicle owners and dealers. The bill establishes that certain noise infractions will be treated as civil offenses with fines ranging from $500 to $1,000, while other specific violations remain misdemeanors with higher penalties. It also clarifies that dealers who knowingly install non-compliant exhaust systems are liable for fines and legal fees if a customer receives a citation. Additionally, the legislation updates record-keeping requirements for courts to ensure detailed reports on vehicle noise violations are sent to the secretary of state.

HB 6146: State finance: budgets; distribution of the countercyclical budget and economic stabilization fund; make subject to section 8 of the motor fuel tax act. Amends sec. 352 of 1984 PA 431 (MCL 18.1352). TIE BAR WITH: HB 6147'26

This bill proposes changes to how Michigan manages its economic stabilization fund by adjusting the rules for transferring money into and out of the fund based on state revenue growth rates. It requires that if revenue growth exceeds 2 percent, the excess amount must be moved into the stabilization fund, while limiting withdrawals to 25 percent of the fund balance when revenue growth is negative. Additionally, the bill subjects the fund to specific provisions of the motor fuel tax act, ensuring that any transfers are consistent with existing tax laws. The legislation is tied to a companion bill and will not take effect unless both are passed by the legislature.

This bill requires health insurance policies in Michigan to cover the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of pediatric autoimmune neuropsychiatric disorders associated with streptococcal infections and pediatric acute onset neuropsychiatric syndrome. It mandates that insurers provide these benefits without higher copayments or deductibles than other covered services and prohibits denying coverage based on a patient's medical history or previous use of different diagnostic names. Additionally, the legislation sets specific rules for timely authorization, limits on lifetime coverage, and the use of standardized medical codes for billing purposes.

This bill creates a new system for recommending salaries for the heads of Michigan's principal executive departments. It requires both majority and minority party leaders in the state legislature to appoint unpaid panelists who will evaluate department heads on their work quality and cost-effectiveness. These panelists will submit ratings to the House fiscal agency, which will use a specific formula based on those scores and the governor's current salary to calculate recommended pay amounts. The final salary recommendations will be sent to key legislative leaders and the governor for consideration.

HB 6147: Transportation: motor fuel tax; gas tax holiday; provide for. Amends secs. 8 & 152 of 2000 PA 403 (MCL 207.1008 & 207.1152). TIE BAR WITH: HB 6146'26

This bill amends the Michigan Motor Fuel Tax Act to establish a temporary gas tax holiday that activates if the statewide average price of gasoline reaches $5.00 per gallon before the end of 2026. Under this provision, the tax rate would drop to zero cents per gallon for a three-month period, with the lost revenue automatically transferred from a state stabilization fund to the Michigan Transportation Fund. The legislation also updates the general tax rate structure to include annual adjustments based on inflation or a fixed 5% increase, whichever is lower, while maintaining specific rates for fuel held in storage as of the end of 2025. Additionally, the bill clarifies reporting requirements for fuel suppliers and terminals to ensure accurate tracking of blended products and tax liabilities.

HB 6145: Education: school districts; capital outlay funds; allow school districts and intermediate school districts to use. Amends sec. 242 of 1984 PA 431 (MCL 18.1242)

HB 6145 requires school districts and intermediate school districts in Michigan to develop and submit five-year capital outlay plans for facility improvements, including new construction and renovations. These plans must be submitted electronically by November each year and will be evaluated based on factors such as safety needs, occupancy rates, sustainability, and projected operating costs. The bill allows districts to opt into this process, which involves a review by the Department of Treasury and the Joint Committee on Oversight Services before any funding is authorized for final design and construction. By establishing these specific criteria and timelines, the legislation aims to bring greater transparency and oversight to how public school districts plan and request funds for building projects.

This proposed constitutional amendment requires Michigan's legislature to pass the annual school aid budget bill by July 1 each year. To ensure transparency and accountability, the bill must be publicly available on the legislature's website for at least seven days before a vote, and any amendments must be posted for 24 hours. If the deadline is missed, the salaries of the governor, the Senate majority leader, and the House speaker will be withheld until the bill is enacted.

HB 6143: Natural resources: Great Lakes; regulations regarding crib docks in the Les Cheneaux Islands; prohibit Amends 1994 PA 451 (MCL 324.101 - 324.90106) by adding secs. 32509a & 32509b & provides for a referendum.

This bill proposes changes to Michigan's natural resources laws to allow for the construction of traditional timber crib docks and boathouses in the Les Cheneaux Islands, provided they are built from natural wood and stone and approved by local zoning authorities. Under the new rules, permits would be granted only if these structures do not extend beyond the owner's shoreline or create navigational hazards, while also requiring the state to reject denials based on generalized environmental assumptions without specific evidence. The legislation includes a mandatory referendum in Clark Township, meaning the changes will only take effect if a majority of voters in that area approve them at an upcoming election.
