2015 House Bill 4829

Mandate non-Detroit employers withhold Detroit income tax

Introduced in the House

Aug. 18, 2015

Introduced by Rep. Al Pscholka (R-79)

To require employers who are located outside of Detroit and who employ individuals who live inside the city to withhold city income taxes from the compensation of those employees. This would not apply to small employers (less than 10 employees and $500,000 in annual payroll). This bill has been mentioned as a component in a potential “logroll” deal to get Detroit legislator votes on a large Republican gas tax increase proposal.

Referred to the Committee on Tax Policy
