MI HB6085

Amends the Real Estate Transfer Tax Act (1966 PA 134) to make gender-neutral language changes throughout Section 5 (MCL 207.505), which lists exemptions from the tax.

Replaces gendered pronouns and references (e.g., "husband or wife," "husband and wife") with gender-neutral language (e.g., "spouse," "both spouses") in exemption provisions.

Changes "which" to "that" and updates references from "the constitution of the United States" to "United States Constitution" for clarity and consistency.

Updates exemptions related to spousal transfers and conveyances to clarify they apply to transfers between spouses creating or disjoining tenancy by the entireties, without regard to gender.

Takes effect only if Senate Joint Resolution ____ or House Joint Resolution T (request no. 02690'19) becomes part of the Michigan Constitution of 1963.
