The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 513.075, to update the language regarding cohabitation and property agreements to be gender-neutral. Specifically, it removes the phrase "a man and a woman" and replaces it with "the parties," thereby making the statute applicable to all individuals regardless of gender.

The revised statute maintains the requirements for enforceability of contracts related to property and financial relations between parties who are cohabitating out of wedlock. These requirements include that the contract must be written and signed by the parties involved, and that enforcement can only be sought after the termination of the relationship.
