Makes marriage license provisions gender neutral in Michigan law.

This bill amends Michigan's marriage license law to remove gender-specific language. It updates the terminology in the provision allowing a marriage license to be issued without publicity if the individual desires to keep the exact date of marriage secret. The change ensures the law applies equally to all individuals, regardless of gender.
