Rep. Tom Kunse

Maddy summaryThis bill (HB 4182) amends Michigan's use tax law to add a new exemption for motor fuel sales. It specifically creates a new section (4gg) in the law to exempt certain motor fuel transactions from use tax. The bill directly affects businesses selling motor fuel, potentially reducing their tax burden on qualifying sales. However, the provided context does not specify the exact scope of the exemption or who qualifies for it, so the summary cannot detail the precise mechanisms or affected parties beyond the general tax exemption for motor fuel.

Maddy summaryHB 4180 removes the sales tax requirement for motor fuel sales in Michigan by amending the state tax code. It directly affects gas stations and fuel retailers by exempting motor fuel transactions from the standard sales tax. The bill creates a new tax exemption provision (Section 4gg) in the tax code, specifically excluding motor fuel sales from taxable transactions. This change became effective immediately upon the Governor's approval on October 7, 2025.

Maddy summaryHB 4181 removes a sales tax exemption for certain motor fuel purchases by amending Michigan's 2004 tax code (MCL 205.173 & 205.175). The bill directly affects businesses and consumers purchasing motor fuel by eliminating an existing tax exemption, meaning these purchases will now be subject to sales tax. It streamlines the tax code by clarifying that motor fuel is no longer exempt from sales tax under the specified sections. The bill was enacted on October 7, 2025, and is now law as Public Act 18 of 2025.

Maddy summaryHB 4183 increases the motor fuel tax rate and expands the types of fuels subject to the tax under Michigan law. It directly affects motor fuel sellers (like gas stations) and consumers through higher costs for gasoline and other taxed fuels. The bill amends Section 8 of the 2000 Motor Fuel Tax Act (MCL 207.1008) to implement these changes, which became law immediately upon approval by the Governor on October 7, 2025.

Maddy summaryThis resolution ceremonially recognizes physical therapy professionals in Michigan by designating October 2025 as Physical Therapy Month. It encourages all Michigan residents to learn about physical therapy benefits, express gratitude to practitioners, and explore how the field supports community health. The bill has no binding policy changes or funding provisions - its purpose is purely symbolic recognition of the profession's role in healthcare. It directly affects Michigan residents and physical therapy practitioners by highlighting their contributions during a designated month.

Maddy summaryHB 4834 is a procedural bill that revises Michigan's 1945 Aeronautics Code (MCL 259.2 et seq.) by amending 21 existing sections and adding a new Section 89c while repealing Section 36. It updates the legal language and structure of the code without creating new policy or directly affecting specific individuals or entities. The bill focuses on administrative and technical corrections to the state's aviation regulatory framework. As a code revision, it primarily impacts state agencies and aviation-related entities governed by this statute. The bill is currently in committee referral stage after its first reading and committee review.

Maddy summaryHB 4835 amends Michigan's law enforcement standards act to update the legal definition of "law enforcement officer." It specifically adds airport law enforcement officers (appointed by public airport authorities) and clarifies that certain other roles - like public safety officers at community colleges and conservation officers - also qualify under this definition. The bill directly affects these officers, ensuring they fall under the Michigan Commission on Law Enforcement Standards' requirements for training and certification. This is a definitional update, not a policy change, and affects who must meet the state's law enforcement standards.

Maddy summaryHB 5062 allows veteran organizations to conduct charity games using video charity game dispensers instead of traditional paper tickets. It changes how proceeds are allocated: 45% to the organizing veteran group, 5% to statewide veteran organizations (if the group is a member), and 50% to a new "charity game veterans fund" for Michigan veterans programs. The bill also creates a separate "Michigan charity gaming service fund" to cover dispenser costs. This directly affects veteran organizations conducting charity games and modifies revenue distribution from these events under Michigan's bingo act.

Maddy summaryHB 5075 requires individuals alleging accessibility violations under Michigan's Persons with Disabilities Civil Rights Act to provide written notice to facility owners or managers before filing a lawsuit. The notice must detail specific violations and give the owner 15 business days to respond, either by committing to fix issues within 120 days, challenging the claim, or proving prior corrections. This applies to violations of accessibility laws covering public accommodations, buildings, and transportation. The bill aims to give owners a chance to resolve issues before litigation, while still allowing lawsuits if owners fail to respond or comply within the specified timeframe. It directly affects disabled individuals seeking enforcement and facility owners subject to accessibility laws.

Maddy summaryHB 4107 requires Michigan schools to include specific health education content for students in grades 7-12. It mandates instruction in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), automated external defibrillator (AED) use, and first aid response kits (including tourniquets and bleeding control supplies) as part of the health curriculum. Schools may use trained personnel like Red Cross instructors, EMTs, or properly trained teachers to deliver this instruction, with hands-on practice encouraged but not required for all students. The bill exempts 100% online schools from requiring hands-on CPR practice.
