2015 House Bill 4415

Make Proposal 1 license plate tax hike federal tax deductible

Introduced in the House

March 26, 2015

Introduced by Rep. Tim Greimel (D-29)

To revise the legal basis of vehicle registration (license plate) taxes in a way that ensures Michigan residents who itemize deductions on their federal income tax returns may continue to deduct these taxes even if voters approve the May 5, 2015 Proposal 1 sales tax increase initiative, which would automatically trigger a vehicle registration tax increase. The bill that authorized the registration tax hike also revised the law in a way that could cancel the current federal income tax deductibility.

Referred to the Committee on Government Operations
